More Than Just ABC’s and
123’s
The Academy welcomes all potty trained
three to five-year-old children. We believe that the Great Falls
Gymnastics Learning Academy offers more than any other preschool or
daycare in Great Falls! Your child will attend Monday, Tuesday, and
Thursday, from 8:30 a.m. - 11:30am or 12:00pm-3:00pm. Our unsurpassed curriculum intertwines the social,
physical and mental development of our students within our warm,
kid-friendly environment. Every child at the Academy receives
age-appropriate information and skills, such as letter names and sounds,
numbers, proper classroom behavior, introductory science and much, much
more.
We know that kids learn best when their
curiosity is piqued and when adventure abounds! We also know that
current research has linked physical movement to ‘higher learning’, so
these early childhood years set the stage for future learning and future
success. Additionally, movement has now been shown to help organize
the developing brain! There is simply no better place for three to
five-year-olds in Great Falls.
Clearly, a well-balanced preschool
program should contain adequate movement activities in addition to the
educational components, and preferably offer these in a fun and supportive
environment.
Because we know how important movement
and physical activity is to the developing brain, our students participate
in daily gymnastics lessons at the Academy. Classes are taught in our dedicated
preschool gymnastics room, with the brightly colored age-appropriate
equipment. Our students enjoy the same lesson plans that are offered
nightly in the Grass Hopper Program where they work on coordination, balance,
flexibility and confidence as they use child-sized balance beams, rings,
bars, mats and more. It’s truly a child’s delight, filled with colorful mats! Our teaching staff assist in the
gymnastic lessons with assistance from the The Academy's staff.
