ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS. Foreign Language - The Sunrise staff includes a native speaking, Spanish language and culture teacher. Spanish is introduced to the preschool children through songs, games, stories, and simple greetings, nouns and adjectives. Kindergarten students receive instruction during the afternoon and have related activities available in the classroom. At the elementary level, students receive formal lessons each week and the teacher integrates the Spanish language with class projects and units of study. Music and Art (Toddler, Preschool, Kindergarten) - All Montessori Toddler and Preschool Kindergarten teachers have training in art and music, incorporating both into the daily program. For variety and depth, an outside, professional music teacher comes in throughout each week and works with the toddler and preschool/kindergarten programs. Music and Art (Elementary) - At the elementary level, art is both integrated into the curriculum and taught as an individual subject. The children learn basic skills in painting, drawing, sculpture, etc. Specific guest artists are invited into the classrooms to share their knowledge and expertise. Both the lower and upper elementary programs include weekly singing and music classes, taught by professional music teachers. Individual Instrumental Music Lessons - Sunrise is fortunate to be associated with several excellent instrumental music teachers who give private lessons at our school. Fees are determined by and paid directly to the music teacher. Physical Education (Toddler through Kindergarten) - Physical activity is a crucial part of a young child’s development. Each Sunrise class has its own playground filled with equipment that builds physical strength, coordination and agility. Equipment for team sports such as softball, soccer and basketball are available as the children mature into these interests. The afternoon Kindergarten Program also includes Physical Education class once a week. Physical Education (Elementary) - The elementary students have the luxury of one play area with swings, climbing structures, basketball hoops and another large grassy field for soccer, football, baseball, and other running games. Along with daily outside activity and games, each elementary student receives formal instruction. Learning the basic rules to games and developing good sportsmanship are emphasized. Once a year, the elementary students take part in the President’s Physical Fitness Program. Childcare (Preschool-Elementary)- Childcare can be reserved on a daily, weekly, monthly or once a year basis. However, priority is given to those who stay longer, have siblings in another program, and on a first come first serve basis. To schedule childcare and check for availability, parents need to email or call the office. Childcare reservations should be canceled before 9:00 a.m. of the scheduled day or a “no show” charge will be billed.
