Gymboree
This week at Gymboree my son attended his usually Gymboree preschool class. It is a really fun experience.
When you arrive at the Gymboree School Skills class there is a paper with all the kids names on it, Your child will go up to this paper and find his or her name and circle it, then he will go play until its time to officially start class. Class starts at around 3:45 and the kids do about 15 minutes or so of free play, next is circle time where Teacher Chris will then go over Gymbo's rules, sometimes teacher Chris will then read a story to the kids and the kids are able to ask questions about the story or help with Gymbo's rules.
After that there is more play time. There is a lot of equipment for the kids to play on. After playtime the children will then go into the other room for science time. This consists of different things each week, for example last week the teach brought worms and dirt and the kids got to look at them under a microscope and on the projector screen. After science the kids go back onto the main area and have more play time. Towards the end of the class the children go back into the other room and it is then time for art. They do all kinds of art projects from collages to painting dinosaurs and so on. Then they play some more and sing the goodbye song. It is then time to put on their shoes and get ready to go home.
This week in class the kids painted a little sail boat.
