The 3 year old classroom has a Christian loving atmosphere where the children's knowledge really begins to blossom. Throughout the year the children will master their colors and shapes. Letters are a primary focus with concentration on one letter per week.  They are encouraged to count aloud and recognize the numbers from 1-10.  Fine motor skills and beginning writing skills are practiced through fun arts and craft activities.

The Gospel and Bible stories are an intricate part of the daily routine.  The children attend Chapel biweekly where God's Word is presented on their level.  Stories, singing and movement get them excited and help them learn.  The lessons are then reinforced in the classroom with additional activities. 

Once a week the children attend a special enrichment class.  This class includes library, music, art and science.  Each lesson provides the children an opportunity to explore the gifts God has given them and learn about God's Creations through interactive activities.
