     Blue Room is an old twos/young three's class. Children are not required to be toilet trained before they begin. New children have a home visit a few days before school starts and go through a gradual separation process that lasts for two to three weeks.

     In the Blue Room, children learn to make choices for themselves. Each day, they are presented with an array of activities from which to choose.. Every activity helps to advance a specific area of development, i.e., fine motor ability, visual perception, creativity, etc. Teachers help facilitate choices by working alongside each child.

     Small group activities are planned daily. They help to promote cooperation, to extend attention span, foster expressive language skills, and enable teachers to focus on individual strengths. Concept building is usually introduced in this format. Activities are fun, hands-on, and non-competitive.
