Welcome Temple Shalom Families!
Information about the Classes
We are so excited to launch STEAM with Seleste! We offer an in-depth STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) after care enrichment for currently registered Temple Shalom students for the 2025-2026 school year.
For the Fall semester, we are offering 2 classes for the different age groups in the preschool. VPK, and Cubs/Lions combined class. Each class has a maximum of 14 children and will take place in Temple Shalom Preschool during after care hours.
Your child will have the opportunity to learn about a variety of STEAM careers and explore a wide range of interests. Including chemistry, physics, botany, engineering, astronomy, and more.
Each class begins with a focused instructional period designed to spark curiosity and build foundational knowledge. Following this, children dive into either an in-depth sensory activity or a hands-on project that encourages one-on-one exploration and creativity. These projects are carefully crafted to be engaging and educational, allowing kids to experiment, discover, and occasionally take home a tangible piece of their learning adventure. The class structure balances guided learning with open-ended play, supporting each child’s unique pace and interests in a nurturing environment.
Come join us on our first journey through science!
Wishing you well,
Seleste
