Little 3's

This class is made up of our youngest friends at APL. The friends in this classroom are 2 ½ and 3 years old. This classroom has a big focus on potty training and building independent skills. Our staff assist these friends wherever they are on their potty training journey with either going to the bathroom, introducing them to the bathroom, or changing pullups. Friends in the classroom are introduced to their written name and the names of their peers. Our goal for children in this class is that when they see the letter “M” some may know it is an M, but everyone will know it is for Max. We review colors and shapes regularly, introduce basic numbers, and work on counting, sorting, and matching. Projects are done one on one or in small groups so teachers call always assist or challenge as needed. Our little 3's are working on eating independently, washing hands, making clear requests (I want, I have to, I feel), engaging in meaningful play with peers, introductory scissor skills, body awareness, and seperating from their grown ups.
