Preschool preparation
Preschool education is in our kindergarten, in addition to English language teaching focused on careful preparation children to enter primary school. Already for the smallest children, we monitor their progress and offer them supporting activities. We are improving their graphomotor skills, auditory and visual discrimination and pre-mathematical skills. In the last year of attendance at our kindergarten, children have intensive pre-school preparation also in the Czech language. Children are divided into small groups for most activities so that we can work individually according to their level of knowledge and skills. We are testing the kids in October and then in April by this we know which areas need more attention. The goal is to prepare children for school attendance in a selected private or state elementary school so that school work for them will be easy and they left the school feeling like they were good and with motivation for further studies.
