About Pre-Primary Program

At IKM’s early learning centers located in Ahwatukee and Chandler, our Pre-Primary program provides a structured yet flexible schedule to meet your child’s individual needs. Throughout the day, your child will have ample opportunities to learn, practice, socialize, nap, and play in our beautiful outdoor playground (weather permitting). Our experienced, Montessori-certified Pre-Primary teachers will help your child develop academic, social, and cognitive skills while building their self-confidence and independence. They will introduce songs, stories, and lessons using hands-on learning materials at your child’s pace, with a deep understanding of each child’s unique development. Teachers will also promote social interactions and cultivate your child’s emerging language skills.

Montessori 3 - Year Cycle

Following the Montessori Method, when your child is around 2.5 years old ready for the next stage, we will begin arranging visits to one of the pre-primary classes to ease the transition to the next exciting stage of their development. Our teacher will communicate and share her thoughts and observations with you before the transition begins. As always, we will work together to provide the best toddler care programs in Ahwatukee and Chandler to meet your child’s needs and celebrate his/her successes in all areas of your child’s development.
