Private Prekindergarten

4 Years Old by September 1st

Linder Learning Land’s Private Prekindergarten classroom is for children who are four years old as of September 1^st (the day that the Texas public schools have chosen to determine grade placement).

Preparation for Success

Our program prepares your child for success in elementary school by offering a solid foundation of academics taught with a very low student-to-teacher ratio so that each child is able to receive the support he needs.  More than just academics, Linder Learning Land continues to fulfill its goal of helping your child develop into a self-assured, responsible and mannerly person.

More Individual Attention for Your Child

Public school prekindergarten classes average 20 children per one teacher whereas Linder Learning Land's Private Prekindergarten averages 20 children with TWO teachers. In this crucial year, when your child is transitioning from early childhood to elementary, this extra individual attention is extremely important to your child's development.

Believing in balance, LLL encourages your child to learn both through exploration play and through the traditional teacher-directed activities. Our unique Private Prekindergarten utilizes two separate but attached classrooms.

One classroom is arranged with learning centers and the other classroom is arranged as a traditional classroom except that we have small group tables instead of individual desks. 

Keeping You Informed

Our Private Prekindergarten gives out nine-week progress reports, similar to the report card that your child will be receiving in public school. This is part of Linder Learning Land’s goal to prepare your child for the routine and procedures of public school.

Believing in the U.S. Department of Education's No Child Left Behind Act which states that a quality early childhood education is crucial to a child's future school success, Linder Learning Land follows the Texas Education Agency's Guidelines for Prekindergarten Curriculum (You can view those at www.tea.state.tx.us/curriculum/early/prekguide.html )

Variety of Curriculums

We incorporate several curriculums in our Private Prekindergarten. We teach using the Frog Street Press language arts program, which incorporates a great deal of music in its teaching strategy, and the SRA Learning to Think series which helps children sharpen their reasoning skills. Several different math curriculums published by McGraw-Hill and Scribner are also taught.

Reading Readiness

Most of our children are reading before the end of the school year. At one time, Linder Learning Land taught through Private Kindergarten and Private First Grade, so we have more advanced reading and math curriculums available if any of our children are ready to have further challenges.

The Day of a PreK Student

The day starts with Circle Time with all of the children together in the academic room. After Circle Time, the class is split, with some of the children going to the Exploration Room and others staying in the Academic Room.  This allows each teacher to focus on groups of ten or fewer children!

The academic teacher usually also has a teaching assistant so the lead teacher is able to even further divide the children so that she is able to work with small groups of about five children. These groups rotate and change throughout the day and depending upon the subject being taught.   With the academic studies, Exploration Play, Computer, Spanish, Motion and Movement, Arts & Crafts, going outside to play, playing in our indoor air-conditioned playroom, and eating in our cafeteria - your prekindergarten child has a wonderfully balanced day full of learning and fun!
