Special Events At Our Delray Beach Preschool Program
One of our main pillars of education at GRSG is that learning should be fun! We implement this in our classes each day using music, storytelling, and art to teach lessons. But more than that, we strive to create a myriad of special events throughout the year to not only reinforce our lessons but also give our community of parents and kiddos lots of things to look forward to. Here are a few of the fun events we hold annually for our Delray Beach Preschool Program, with our teachers and admin staff adding new great ideas each year!
Letter Events:
One of the most important parts of preschool is setting the foundations for your child’s reading skills and vocabulary. Because of this, we take extra time to introduce the alphabet and the words that start with each letter. We hold special events to emphasize certain letters or introduce difficult spelling concepts to create a lasting impression on your child’s education. T week sees our kiddos riding in a miniaturized Train. Our 3-year-olds have a Pirate Party for the Letter P complete with treasure hunts, costumes, and obstacle courses. When kids learn about Q & U and all the words that start with that sound combination, we hold a wedding for those letters!
Hop-A-Thon
Each year, we work with the Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD) to raise money during our Hop-A-Thon! We have a field day where we hop for those who can’t and collect donations which help the PPMD fund research to end Duchenne, an advanced form of muscular dystrophy. This event, along with several other fundraisers we hold throughout the year, help us achieve our important goal of community involvement and teach our GRSG kids the value of empathy and philanthropy.
Holiday Events
The holidays celebrated globally are not only exciting but great historical and cultural teaching moments. We throw events that coordinate with many holidays either purely for fun, or to help introduce children to important customs from all around the world. GRSG celebrates the Chinese new year by throwing a parade and introducing preschoolers to the foods and customs of China in their social studies rotation. We throw a thanksgiving show to learn about our country’s history and the importance of being grateful. And our Holiday show incorporates music and costumes to celebrate the winter festivities we all love.
Dr. Seuss Week
Dr. Suess is beloved by educators everywhere. His long-form books are perfect for beginning readers with their emphasis on rhyming, alliteration, and wacky storylines that captivates toddlers. Our preschoolers will be introduced to these books during DR. Seuss Week! Filled with fun themed costume days, reading, projects, and parties, this is one of our favorite weeks here at Get Ready Set Grow for teachers and students, alike!
