Established in 2025, the Little Learner Academy at The LeMoyne Community Center is an 8-week summer program designed to prepare children for a smooth and successful transition into Kindergarten. Guided by a Pennsylvania Certified Pre-K-4 Teacher, students receive daily instruction in a supportive, engaging, and nurturing environment that builds confidence and fosters a love for learning.
At Little Learner Academy, we emphasize the core skills children need for Kindergarten:
Early Literacy Skills: Letter recognition, phonemic awareness, vocabulary development, and beginning writing skills.
Mathematics Readiness: Number recognition, counting, sorting, patterning, and introduction to basic math concepts.
Fine Motor Development: Cutting, drawing, writing, and activities that build hand-eye coordination.
Social-Emotional Learning: Working in groups, sharing, following directions, developing independence, and expressing emotions appropriately.
Listening and Speaking Skills: Participating in group discussions, answering questions, and storytelling in sequence to build language and communication.
The Little Learner Academy runs from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, followed by lunch and afternoon activities with Camp Challenge from 1:00 to 4:00 PM. Together, these experiences create a fun, meaningful, and developmentally rich summer for every child.
At Little Learner Academy, we believe in preparing young learners not just for school—but for lifelong success.
