Preschoolers


Good afternoon from the city of New York, one of the best cities in the United States, which has cultural mixtures of many children and families living here today. A city that is growing and improving our early childhood education system everyday and assisting our early childhood students with the best programs and teachers they can offer. An urban city that has made progress and changes in the lives of students. Each day more and more students are being registered for pre-k or headstart programs in New York City. The increase of registration shows a positive beginning in our system as far as education development.

As a NYC special education teacher for the past 9 to 10 years, I made this blog in the hopes of sharing with parents, people, teachers, and college students the insights of why, when, where, and how preschoolers should begin learning at a very early age. I find that education begins once they have reached the age of two. Eventhough, babies learn as well. However, toddlers can make big accomplishments in education by starting at home or entering in a private or public preschool setting right away or receiving early intervention services at home, or with parents. When the child enters a preschool setting it gives the toddler a awareness not only of learning new skills but a form of routine, organization, and socialization skills. The toddler learns that learning begins in a new setting called pre-k or preschool. The best part of this is that it gets the toddler ready for kindergarten. The most important part of earlychildhood education is the development of all skills.
In the following blog, I will add ideas and activities parents can do at home to educate their children and make a difference in their lives at a tender age of beginning two's, three's, four's and five's.....
