Preschool is an early childhood program in which
children combine learning with play in a program
run by professionally trained adults. Children are
most commonly enrolled in preschool between the
ages of three and five, though those as young as
two can attend some schools. Preschools are
different from traditional day care in that their
emphasis is learning and development rather than
enabling parents to work or pursue other activities.
Behavior management is a major part of preschool
learning. In preschool, children learn how to be
students. Children learn patience, how to raise their
hands and take turns. Children also learn how to
share the teacher's attention.
Teachers read stories to children to encourage their
listening. comprehension, and expressive language
skills. Matching games, sorting games and counting
games build children’s understanding of numbers,
and sequences. Putting puzzles together encourages
children to notice patterns and to work on problem-
solving skills.
HEAD START
Since 1965, the federal HEAD STAR program has
provided free education for young children in many
low-income families across the USA. In 2000, Head
Start served 11 percent of all three- and four-year olds
in the USA. In 2001, Head Start reported enrollment
of over 900,000 children, at a cost of roughly $7,000
per child.
Head Start programs are available in all 50 states
and are offered in a variety of formats, including both
all-day and half-day programs. Some of them are held
at the public school the child will eventually attend.
The greatest academic and social progress seen in
preschools is in children from deprived backgrounds.
However, few programs have the quality necessary
to bring about the benefits promised.
The costs of a high-quality program can be far
greater than the costs of education at some public
universities. Most children in preschool, however,
are not disadvantaged, and some researchers
believe the same gains can be had at home by
providing educational toys , games and books
for the child. In some preschools, the work
on groups might mean that children will not receive
the individual attention they require.
This is a particular risk if the preschool does not
follow the National Association for the Education of
Young Children's recommended teacher-to-child
ratio of no more than ten preschoolers per staff
member.
One-on-one instruction is an advantage parents
will not likely find in any preschool. Opportunities
for playing with other children exist in churches,
clubs, and other outlets, where the child can
learn social skills.
Some believe that what children need most is lots
of play and free time and close interaction with their
parents, something that may be compromised if the
child is away from home for long periods of time.
Another disadvantage is that some children
experience acute separation anxiety , indicating
that they are not yet ready to make the transition
to the preschool environment.
Many programs also expect the child to be toilet-
trained, a mile stone that not all children have
achieved at the preschool age.
