Ballantyne Preschool of the Arts

We are excited to be a part of the Ballantyne Preschool of the Arts. The new preschool's curriculum combines traditional education with the arts. Children are taught math, science, reading, writing and social skills in a creative environment that integrates visual arts and the performing arts of dance, drama and music. LPCW's curriculum fits in nicely with their education objectives. We are thrilled that an opportunity like this is being provided for preschoolers in our area. It gives them an exposure to the arts while learning. How much fun!! We look forward to an exciting year here.

Dancing is AWESOME!

Things are going great here in the Triangle!! We have been having so much fun in our first week of classes! I love meeting all the new students. We have a great group a little movers!

Today, one of my four year old friends told me, "Mrs. Summer, this class is my favorite part of the day! Dancing is AWESOME!" I have to agree with her, dancing is always my favorite part of the day too!

And We're Off!!!

We are getting off to a great start in the Charlotte region. DEMOS, DEMOS, DEMOS!! Every child enrolled at all of our Charlotte centers will have a chance to try out our classes this week. We already have children registered and our classes are filling up fast, so don't miss out on the fun!! We are starting out our year with the wonderful "Wizard of Oz". This is bringing much excitement. For example, we stretch in our straddle position with "Storm Rocks". We rock from side to side in the terrible tornado with Dorothy and land like the house in the middle for a really good stretch. So, "Follow the Yellow Brick Road" to LPCW. We are thrilled to be starting our 2011-2012 year.

Look for us soon on the Charlotte Mecklenburg School's approved vendor list. We could be coming to a school near you!!
