Class 3 & 5 - Seasonal Visual Art

Class 3 and 5 have been spending more time together in order to help Class 5's new teacher settle into the routine.

The result? Wonderful things!

Class 3 and 5 engaged in an exciting experience which allowed for them to create their very own 3D turkeys to celebrate Thanksgiving.

We began by gathering together all the supplies needed for the art experience. Once the materials were ready for use, we applied glue onto Styrofoam balls and covered them with tissue paper. This allowed for the children to create their own representation of the turkey's body. When we finished creating our turkey's body, we assembled the tail by gluing fall leaves and feathers together and dazzling them up with jewels! To conclude, we added some googly eyes to our thanksgiving turkeys.

Above all, the art experience provided the children of Little Feet Little Faces with opportunity to gain greater understanding of thanksgiving and why it is celebrated. They were able to discover this by recognizing and remembering the things they are all grateful for.

Welcome to Little Feet Little Faces Preschool!

We are a private Licensed Day Care (Licensed with the Ministry of Education) that offers high quality care for children aged 2.5 yrs – 6 yrs.

You have taken the first step of offering your child a 3 year framework that will extend and challenge their academic learning and expose them to a creative and imaginative world of artistic elements and possibilities.

Our low class size and student: teacher ratio allows your child to be taught at their own academic level and their learning to be tailored to their own strengths and challenges. By giving your child the opportunity to be part of this journey with us they are being immersed in an all encompassing curriculum that intertwines the academic and artistic learning that is relevant to real world success. This curriculum caters for all learners using Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences as well as Blooms Taxonomy to give your child the best learning outcomes. Themes are carried throughout the academic curriculum as well as the artistic curriculum to reinforce concepts and offer all types of learners to interpret and extend.

At Little Feet Little Faces your child is not just another face in the classroom. They are part of our team where every staff member knows their name and has taken the time to personally bond with your child and ensure a secure and trusting attachment has been forged. As a result of this your child comes to preschool happy and excited every day as they know they are safe and the staff love them. Our 3 year plan ensures that your child will receive a solid and comprehensive foundation of emergent and early literacy and mathematical concepts and skills allowing them to transition easily into some of Toronto’s most elite private elementary schools.

Thank you for taking this journey with us. We are excited to become part of your family and educate your child to become the most confident, expressive, academic, creative and well rounded individual they can be.
