3-DAY SESSION (4-5 YEAR OLDS)  

Our Little STEAMers Preschool is based on the Montessori principles that children learn best when they are given the freedom to move, to choose their own work, and follow their interests, operating within boundaries that include respect for themselves, others, and their environment. In Little STEAMers Preschool students learn through guided exploration and build skills with independent hands-on learning. Using Montessori methods, our teachers progress students’ exploration skills and use a complete preschool curriculum to develop students’ understanding of STEM concepts (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) and communication (language arts & literacy). 

The 2-Day Session is for students ages 3-4 and runs September 12 to December 20, every Thursday and Friday from 8:00am to 12:00pm at the SDDC Homebase (our exhibit hall!), 805 West Sioux Ave. Dropoff occurs within 15 minutes prior class and pickup within 15 minutes after the end of class at the back entrance. Students MUST be potty trained prior to the start of class. Our 2-Day Session students and their guardian/s are expected to attend the Little STEAMers Welcome on Thursday, September 5, 2024, from 5:30-6:30pm at the South Dakota Discovery Center Homebase (our exhibit hall!), 805 West Sioux Avenue.
