3 years

At Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy in Bayside, New York, our 3K for All program offers a nurturing and supportive environment for children ages 3 to 4. This free, full-day educational experience is designed to help children develop essential skills in preparation for Pre-K. The program runs from 8:30 AM to 2:50 PM, Monday through Friday, with additional wrap-around services available for extended hours. We are proud to offer a curriculum that fosters growth in language, literacy, social development, and critical thinking.

High-Quality, Play-Based Curriculum

Our 3K for All program utilizes The Creative Curriculum, which is ranked as the #1 preschool curriculum. This research-based approach emphasizes play-based, hands-on learning that supports children’s natural curiosity and creativity. Through interactive projects and investigations, children explore a variety of subjects, from language and literacy to mathematics and social interactions. This engaging curriculum ensures children learn in an environment where they feel empowered, confident, and excited to discover new things.

 

Focus on Social and Emotional Development

We believe that emotional growth is just as important as academic development. Our 3K program focuses on building children’s confidence, emotional regulation, and social skills. By encouraging cooperative play, communication, and problem-solving, we help children develop the foundation for positive relationships and healthy emotional expression. These skills are crucial as they continue their education.

Individualized Learning

Every child learns differently, and our team is committed to meeting each child where they are in their developmental journey. Using The Creative Curriculum’s color-coded progression, we tailor our teaching to fit the individual needs of each child, ensuring they reach their milestones at their own pace. Our team of experienced educators supports each child’s unique learning style, whether through hands-on activities, storytelling, or group learning opportunities.
