Pre-K (Ages 3-4 Years)
Our Pre-Kindergarten bilingual curriculum offers a well-rounded educational experience that not only prepares children academically but also nurtures their creativity, critical thinking, and social-emotional development in a supportive and engaging environment.
Language (Spanish or French) + English
Language acquisition is a key focus, with children exposed to either Spanish or French, in addition to their English language development. This immersion approach helps promote fluency as they become familiar with and appreciate different languages and cultures.
Math (Spanish or French) + English
Mathematics education is integrated into the curriculum, with children learning basic concepts in both Spanish or French and English. This dual-language approach enhances their numeracy skills and cognitive development. We teach students to learn in the actual language, not just learning the language.
STEM (English)
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education is introduced in English, providing young learners with hands-on experiences to explore and understand fundamental principles in these fields, fostering curiosity and critical thinking. Students will engage in experiments and learn by doing.
Art (Spanish or French)
Artistic expression is encouraged through activities in either Spanish or French, allowing children to explore their creativity and develop fine motor skills while learning about different artistic styles and traditions. Young artists can do their projects inside the classroom, as well as in our massive outdoor space.
Social Studies (English)
Social studies topics are introduced in English, helping children develop an understanding of the world around them, including different cultures, communities, and historical events, promoting empathy and global awareness.
Music (English)
Music education is fundamental. Musical education in English exposes children to different genres and styles of music, helping them develop an appreciation for music and rhythm, as well as enhancing their auditory and language skills. Music education enhances cognitive abilities, including memory and problem-solving skills, and fosters creativity and self-expression.
Physical Education (PE) (English)
Physical Education (PE) classes in English focus on developing gross motor skills, coordination, and physical fitness through age-appropriate activities and games, promoting a healthy and active lifestyle from a young age. At Kintess, we provide a large outdoor space for our students to enhance their health. Exercising outdoors offers a multitude of benefits for both physical and mental well-being. The fresh air and natural surroundings can invigorate the body and mind, providing a refreshing change from indoor environments. Outdoor exercise also exposes individuals to natural light, which can help regulate sleep patterns and improve mood.
Outdoor activities can involve varying terrain and elements, which can challenge the body in different ways and improve balance, coordination, and agility. Exercising outdoors also allows our students to connect with nature, which has been shown to reduce stress and anxiety levels.
