L.H.U.S.D. #1 - Lake Havasu Developmental Preschool
Preschool in Lake Havasu City, AZ 86403
The Developmental Preschool community of staff, students, and families work as a team.
We share the responsibility of modeling and teaching the essential academic and life skills necessary to encourage our students to become responsible, contributing members of society.
We strive to cultivate each student’s strengths and to encourage his or her own positive character traits.
Our staff believes that children are unique individuals and by building upon each child’s strengths and abilities, all children can be successful learners. We believe that children learn in an engaging, safe, and consistent environment supported by a trained, caring, and responsive staff. Children need a variety of experiences that include daily opportunities to participate in small and large group activities which encourage math, language, thinking skills, social, and muscle development. We believe that children learn best when they have opportunities to explore their world with adults encouraging and guiding growth and development. Our goal is to create a home/school partnership where parents and teachers work together to support children’s learning.

Our curriculum is theme based with an emphasis on multi-sensory teaching methods and language rich activities. The use of themes provides the children with practice and application for the skills in meaningful contexts. Themes relate directly to childrens real-life experiences and should build on what they know. The same content should be offered more than once and incorporated into different kinds of activities. Several subject areas can be integrated in the program. The multi-sensory approach provides activities for all learning styles.
Young children feel secure with routines and schedules. The routines and schedules help them learn sequencing and time related activities. This schedule will vary due to hot weather, school assemblies, and special events.
