Torchlight Pre-K - Curiosity and Character
Product Description
Pre-K is the time to develop curiosity and wonder, healthy learning habits, character, and executive function skills. A love for learning is paramount in this foray into Torchlight. Level Pre-K is structured around themed weeks of playful learning that follow a seasonal timeline.
Torchlight Pre-K: Curiosity & Character uses an inquiry method to drive learning. Topics are presented in an engaging picture book each week, then are further explored throughout the week via art and science.
Math in Torchlight Pre-K is a three-prong approach. First, we start with engaging hands-on lessons with Preschool Math at Home to learn the basics. Then, we turn to natural math, exploring how math applies to us and the world we live in with many whole-body activities to develop a mathematical mindset. Lastly, Torchlight provides an optional monthly math inquiry table set-up with instructions, books, and a materials list where your learner can explore and play with math concepts (coming soon).
Torchlight Pre-K has the rare, but important inclusion of lessons which aid in the formation of executive function skills. Emotional intelligence and coping skills are woven throughout each week.
