Pre-Kindergarten:
We are so excited to introduce the "New"
Pre-Kindergarten Program!
The purpose of the pre-kindergarten program is to
provide developmentally appropriate experiences for four year old
students in order that they may enter kindergarten with the
readiness skills they need to succeed. Currently, Fayette
Academy has one pre-kindergarten class. This class operates on
the same schedule as the rest of the school. A certified
teacher and an education assistant staff the classroom.
The pre-kindergarten class will use the "Let's
Begin with the Letter People" curriculum for the 2007 - 2008
school year. The program introduces young children to new
books, songs, poems, and games. The curriculum provides ideas
for creating interest centers that are child-centered and promote
language, phonemic awareness, letter recognition, print awareness,
and beginning reading skills. The curriculum was designed
especially for pre-kindergarten programs. It aligns with the
Tennessee Early Childhood Education Standards.
