Our Preschool Program

A typical day consists of arrival activities, whole-group and small-group instruction, learning centers, Bible lessons, weekly chapel, music, art, story time, outdoor play, and hands-on learning experiences in literacy, mathematics, science, and social studies. Children participate in a balance of structured learning, exploration, and play throughout the day. Learning experiences are intentionally planned to support each child’s development and align with the Florida Early Learning and Developmental Standards (Birth to Kindergarten).

Our preschool classrooms provide a safe, welcoming, and organized environment where children feel valued and supported. Classrooms are thoughtfully arranged into clearly defined learning centers, including literacy, mathematics, science, art, dramatic play, blocks, and fine motor activities. Materials are accessible to children, encouraging independence, decision-making, and active participation in learning.

To foster a sense of belonging and community, classrooms incorporate a Family Tree, Star Student activities, and All About Me projects that help children share about themselves and their families. The classroom layout is designed to promote exploration, positive social interactions, and a smooth flow between learning centers and activities throughout the day.

Granada Day School is committed to helping children develop the academic, social-emotional, physical, and spiritual skills needed for future success. Through daily learning experiences, Biblical teaching, and character development, children build confidence, independence, responsibility, and a love of learning. Our goal is to prepare children for elementary school while helping them understand God’s love and develop the values and skills that will guide them throughout their lives.
