Mobile 1 Gymnastics
a non-competition gymnastics and motor development program for children. For the past several years Nick Bellafatto, an experienced gymnastics instructor, has been teaching mental and physical fitness to children in a fun and safe environment. We have arranged with Nick to include gymnastics in our preschool program for those students attending school Monday/Wednesday/Friday or Monday through Friday during the 2007/2008 school year.
Music
A 30 minute music progam has been incorporated into the program of our 3 year old students attending school on Tuesday/Thursday. This program will include instrument exploration, learning patterns, rhythms, musical concepts, and listening skill development. Student's will move to a variety of songs using scarves and rhythm instruments, and will develop pitch awareness. This program will be taught by Mrs. Cindy Fletcher who grew up playing the violin and singing in the choirs at First Baptist Church of Los Altos. Cindy majored in music at Wellesley College and received her Master's in Elementary Education from Santa Clara University. She is also a licensed Kindermusik instructor.
