First Lutheran Day School, Glendale

At First Lutheran Christian School & Arts the Preschool is designed for children ages 2 – 4. We believe that each child’s self-esteem is crucial to healthy intellectual and social growth. Children learn through hands-on activities and play, specifically designed to develop their pre-literacy, pre-math, language, cognitive, motor, emotional and social skills. Pre-K is designed to prepare 4 year olds for Kindergarten. We believe that successful learning is based on the child’s level of readiness. Our curriculum is designed to help each child develop and expand their reading and writing abilities and verbal skills. In the curriculum we offer developmentally appropriate education in math, phonics, environment and science. Daily activities include zoo phonics, listening to stories, learning to read age-appropriate books, playing with blocks, painting, using art-crafts, and physical activities involving various games on the playground. The children also receive daily nutrition services and naps in a fun, loving and safe environment. Our program prepares children to be socially skilled, motivated and ready to learn about the world and cultures around them.
