MUSIC class
Our music teacher, Frazi, brings her passion for music to PKA once a week. We believe music is an important part of learning, teaching us to focus on rhythm, beats and movement. Everyone has a great time discovering all genres of music from Classic songs to Rock & Roll and Hip Hop. Don’t be surprised if your child taps his or her feet and sings one of your favorite songs.
YOGA INSTRUCTION
In partnership with SoulShine, we offer yoga to our students weekly. Our yoga program teaches yoga in a fun and relaxing way. Kind, friendly and knowledgeable instructors will visit each classroom. Our focus is bringing joy, compassion, and mindfulness of the practice of yoga.
FIELD TRIPS
During the year PKA will go on fun field trips to places such as: The Museum of Natural History, Manhattan Children's Theatre, Children’s Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, Mo Math, Decker Farm, The Robot Foundry, The Brooklyn Children’s Museum, The Brooklyn Museum of Art, Brooklyn Botanic Gardens and The Brooklyn Public Library. Our goal is to bring the culture around us into the classroom to enrich the curriculum.
PKA travels the world
The afternoons at PKA are filled with adventures and exploration. Together we journey through books, stories and neighborhood visits to different countries to learn about their customs and way of life. The students learn to understand and appreciate the differences and similarities of all people.
Farm to table
We love to visit the Green Market and local groceries in search of ingredients for our Farm to Table Cooking Program, exploring whats goes into the children's bodies from the farm to the kitchen table. We will learn hands on about where food comes from, about healthy foods, and slow food cooking. We want to become aware of participating in a green environment.
CHILD-MINDING CARE
In case of an emergency or if you need some extra time to yourself as a busy parent, PKA understands. Depending on our schedule for that day, we will allow you to drop off or extend your child’s day for $20 per hour. Parents must call PKA on the day they will need the extra care to check for availability.
EARLY DROP OFF
Rise and shine, early birds and get a jumpstart on your day. PKA offers early drop off at 8:00am and 8:30am. Spaces are limited and fill up quickly. Contact us for more information.
