KinderGym 

With Mrs. Melissa

When Mrs. Melissa isn’t teaching her Monday, Wednesday, Friday Three-Year Old class, she is facilitating the KinderGym classes for all!*

Students work on gross motor skills using various balance equipment, basic dance and movement choreography, sit-down scooters, and other age appropriate activities.  KinderGym classes meet in the Fellowship Hall. 

• All classes attend once per week

Music

With Mrs. G

Mrs. G meets with the Threes and VPK students once a week to bring the inner musician out to play using a combination of fine/gross motor skills and higher level thinking that corresponds with classroom skills. The scaffolding starts with contour, beat recognition, harmony, and movement.

Art

With Mrs. Katie

Mrs. Katie plans age appropriate art lessons for each class.* Classes include a brief technique or basic art component lesson followed by an age appropriate activity where the child is able to “own their art” – there is no right or wrong way!  

• VPK classes have art once per week
• Twos and Threes have Art once every other week

Visit the Art Gallery to see samples of student work!

Chapel

One Monday or Wednesday per month, the Threes and VPK classes attend Chapel. This experience is aimed at bringing our students a closer understanding of God’s word while also reinforcing the behaviors necessary to attend services with their families. 

*MMO children do not participate in specials.
