Objectives

In service of the Mission Statement, the Dixie State College Preschool Laboratory will provide a developmentally appropriate experience for the preschool children, with a biopsychosocial emphasis that leads to:

• Physical development that promotes healthy play and preparation for success in chosen physical activities
• Cognitive development that prepares the preschooler for the kinds of tasks to be encountered in kindergarten and in primary grades
• Social emotional development that focuses on teaching self-regulation, social skills, problem solving, and age appropriate behavior
