Preschools are very vital to a child’s learning because it teaches
them some important aspects when they are old enough to
attend. Things such as how to behave, follow directions, and
interact with peers to name a few. All the lessons learned
would be with them all throughout life, and could possibly
shape their future. I use the word possibly because some
children are highly educated however, chose not to use their
knowledge in a productive manner. There are also academic
topics they will be taught without any child having negative
feelings about themselves or the staff members. While children
are at preschool they should feel welcomed and safe, without
worrying about how others perceive them.

preschool. Montessori would be a similar route for me because I

that had disabilities was commendable and he taught about and
