Child and Family Development 2020
Serving Pregnant women and Children from Ages Birth to Five
Head Start Comprehensive Education
Head Start is a comprehensive early education program, serving pregnant women and children ages birth to 5, that recognizes health, safety, and family well-being as foundational components of child development. From early math and reading skills to confidence and resilience, we engage parents as equal partners in helping children build the abilities they need to be successful in school and life.
Growing Imagination
Our classroom is doing a study about growing things and understanding the difference between living and non-living things. We read the book called “Our Silly Garden.” In the book, they plant unusual things, like breadcrumbs that grow into a “toast” tree. We decided to do our own experiment and got some hilarious answers from our preschoolers about what we should try and grow, like chocolate, hamburgers, and toys! We planted these items and water them every day to see if they will grow. At the same time, we are talking about where seeds really come from. During small group, we cut open different fruits and vegetables to search for seeds. The kids are able to taste the fruits and veggies and we try to grow any seeds we find to see what will happen!
