Two and Three Year Old Classes
Our 2's and 3's class has four areas in which we are concentrating on. These areas are as follows:
Physical
- Cutting on a straight line
- Can glue but need a little assistance
- Can hop on one foot twice or more
- Can take apart/put together
- Know how to unbutton and unzip
- Can stir and spread
Social/Emotional
- Common fears
- Play in groups but do not always cooperate
- Want to do grown-ups things
- Have a great imagination (role play)
Cognitive
- Make simple comparisons
- Simple puzzles
- Understand relationships
- Match and classify by color, shape, size
Language
- Command of vocabulary
- Speak in sentences of 4-6 words
- Developing speech sounds
- Guessing games, songs etc.
- Story telling
- Say our first and last name
- Ask who, what, where, when, how questions
- Trying new words
What we feel two and three-year-olds need is room for understanding and ways to feel successful. A consistent routine with activities and materials that meet the developmental needs will foster a well rounded environment.
