Hugs and Bugs Pre-school
About us
Hugs and Bugs was created because of the love and desire I have to teach children. The following information will give you an idea of how well prepared your child will be for Kindergarten if you enroll now!
Students currently enrolled for the 2014-2015 school year:
Summer To Do List:
-Read aloud together 20 minutes daily. As you read, run your finger below the words as you say them This will help your child associate spoken words with written words, and also expose him to the left-to-right direction of print.
- Visit the library regularly.
Curriculum/weekly schedule:
Language Arts Skills:
• Reading: Letter and sound recognition--children begin by developing a solid foundation in basic skills, then build on this foundation with daily practice and review. Through phonemic awareness and Zoo phonics movement they'll begin blending sounds and reading.
• Handwriting: Children will learn the proper way to hold a pencil/crayon. They will learn how to form letters correctly, capitals and lower case. They will also write on "line" paper and write their first and last name.
• Oral language: Speaking and listening. Children will be asked to talk about books that have been read to them, to ask and answer questions and sometimes retell or summarize the story.
Math Skills :
• Early exposure to math helps develop a firm foundation for later mastery. Children will use manipulatives regularly to teach numbers and number sense, patterns and classifications, basic computation and measurement.
Language and Literature:
• Monthly theme books.
• Familiar and Favorite Poems, Aesop's Fables, Stories, and Sayings.
Fine and gross motor skill activities-Brain research confirms that movement enhances the learning process.
• Fine: enables children to perform a variety of important functional tasks, including crafts, holding and using utensils properly, writing legible without significant muscle fatigue, etc..
• Gross motor coordination helps children to strengthen the large... show more muscles including ball games, balancing and climbing activities, brain gym movement, etc.....
Visual Art:
• Art is a process of drawing, painting, cutting and pasting, and working with many other materials. It is a great way for children to be creative and use their imagination and express themselves.
Music-Children will learn rhythm through repetition, instruments, and movement.
Play time-Social skills are learned while children problem solve through play and interaction.
Snack-- life skills such as manners and etiquette are learned.

Utah M. asked:Question from a local mom: Hi, Moms! I'm looking for a preschool for my son. I know I'm a bit late for registration, but I am hoping to still get him into a great program. I live in Saratoga Springs, so I would like to stay pretty close to home. Lehi and Eagle Mountain would probably be close enough. Opinions?! Any help you can offer? Also, I'm seeing around $100/mo. for tuition. Is that what you all have found? Thanks!Karin M. replied:Here is the link to Hugs and Bugs Preschool.
