PRESCHOOL & TRANSITIONAL KINDERGARTEN
Big Learning for Bright Futures
Our Monkeys & Lions | Ages 3–5
The preschool years are filled with curiosity, growing independence, new friendships and endless possibilities.
At Coronado Prep Preschool, we combine purposeful learning with plenty of play, giving children the academic, social and emotional foundation they need for kindergarten and beyond.
OUR MONKEYS
Preschool | Age 3
Learning is an adventure!
At three, learning should still feel like fun. Our Monkeys explore, create, ask questions and build confidence through hands-on activities, play and meaningful teacher guidance.
Focus Areas Include:
- Letter and number recognition
- Beginning sounds, shapes and colors
- Early writing and fine motor skills
- Counting, patterns and early math concepts
- Science, art, music and imaginative play
- Social skills, cooperation and following directions
- Growing independence and confidence
We encourage each child to explore, discover and take pride in all they can do.
OUR LIONS
Transitional Kindergarten | Ages 4–5
Ready for what’s next.
Our Transitional Kindergarten program is designed to give children the confidence, skills and love of learning they need for a successful start in kindergarten and beyond.
Through engaging, hands-on experiences, our Lions are challenged, supported and encouraged to reach their individual potential.
Focus Areas Include:
- Early reading and phonics
- Letter sounds and beginning literacy
- Writing and name recognition
- Math concepts and problem-solving
- Science, social studies and exploring the world around us
- Social-emotional skills and classroom responsibility
- Independence and kindergarten readiness
We don’t believe kindergarten readiness is simply knowing letters and numbers. A truly prepared child can communicate, follow directions, participate in a group, work independently, solve problems, manage emotions and feel confident walking into a kindergarten classroom.
WE KNOW WHERE THEY ARE — AND WHERE THEY’RE GOING
Every child develops at their own pace. That’s why we regularly assess children’s progress to help our teachers recognize strengths, identify areas where additional support may be helpful and plan intentionally for each child’s growth.
Our Brigance Screen III and kindergarten-readiness assessments help us follow each child’s development and ensure we’re preparing them for their next step.
Families stay connected through Brightwheel, with classroom updates, photos and important milestones throughout the year.
LEARNING HAPPENS EVERYWHERE
Not every lesson happens sitting at a table.
Our children learn through classroom centers, experiments, art, books, music, imaginative play and plenty of outdoor exploration. Our playground gives children opportunities to run, climb, ride bikes, investigate nature and simply be kids.
Because we believe the best early education provides both: the skills children need for kindergarten and the childhood they deserve right now.
READY FOR KINDERGARTEN. EXCITED FOR WHAT’S NEXT.
For more than 20 years, Coronado Prep Preschool has helped Henderson families give their children the confidence, skills and love of learning they need for a strong start in school.
Come meet our Monkeys and Lions and see learning in action.
