More About Transitional Kindergarten
Lake Norman Baptist Transitional Kindergarten is a program designed for those 5-year-olds who need an additional year to grow emotionally, academically, or socially before entering the kindergarten year. The curriculum will include reading, writing and math readiness skills. The students will be given more time and opportunities to absorb these academic concepts so that their knowledge base will be strong upon entering kindergarten.

Classrooms
LNBC is blessed with wonderful, dedicated and talented teachers. During the day your children will experience small and large group time, show and tell, center time, art, outdoor play, stories and individual attention. We are very fortunate to have the gymnasium upstairs for “outdoor play” when the weather doesn’t allow us to go outside. Teachers cover moral and spiritual topics as well as developmental skills necessary for the next age/grade level. We encourage “child-centered” activities that help children gain confidence and strengthen pre-writing skills.
Ministry
LNBC is a church that strives to be “on mission for Christ.” There are several ways our Preschool Families can get involved. We participate in Samaritans Purse/Operation Christmas Child every November. Families may be asked to donate items to help fill shoe boxes that will be sent to children all over the world. We also work with Angels & Sparrows, a soup kitchen in Huntersville and our mobile food ministry here at LNBC, Bread of Life, along with Caterpillar Ministries, a local ministry that focuses on children and families in our community.
Music
We have a dynamic music program. Each age group attends a music class twice each week. The class is designed to allow preschoolers to experience music through movement and individual expression. Some activities include: playing instruments, interpretive dance, dramatic play, “feet” painting to classical music and fun with bubbles. Children share in Bible songs, classical and children’s favorites, instructional songs along with holiday music and songs that correspond to the classroom lesson themes.
Special Events
Each month our children participate in a school wide special event. These programs are brought to LNBC so that our children will enjoy a “hands-on” experience in a comfortable environment. Parents are welcome to attend our events so that they may enjoy them with their children. In the past, some of the events have included: Corky the Clown, Fire Safety, Irish Dancers, Movies ‘n Munchies, Petting Zoo, Sprout ‘n Shout, and Story Tellers.
