Oaks

4-5 Years

Standing tall, ready to grow beyond

By age four, children are curious, capable, and ready to take on bigger ideas. In the Oaks classroom, our oldest learners build on everything they’ve grown in the years before: asking questions, testing their theories, and working together on longer projects that grow from their own interests. Through play, conversation, and hands-on investigation, children strengthen early literacy and math thinking, fine motor skills, and the independence and self-regulation that help them thrive in kindergarten. Shabbat, Jewish holidays, and everyday acts of kindness continue to shape our days, and our teachers partner closely with families so each child steps into their next school with confidence, curiosity, and a strong sense of who they are.
