At Crossing Borders, our students develop the social, emotional, and academic skills needed for a smooth and confident transition into top schools, including:
In just a few months, your child will begin understanding and speaking a new language, such as English, Spanish, Mandarin, or French. Our nurturing teachers provide personalized attention, ensuring they capture every teachable moment. With this care and our full language immersion programs in Houston, your child’s language journey will be truly transformative.
We introduce lots of new words through fun stories, conversations, and exciting descriptions. This helps kids learn new words and understand what they mean.
Kids learn words and ideas by listening to stories and talking about them with friends and teachers. This makes it easier to remember what they learn.
Children have lots of chances to talk about their own ideas, tell stories, and share experiences. This helps them practice speaking clearly. They also learn to listen and follow directions.
By reading, drawing, and playing with letters and sounds, children start to learn the basics of reading and writing.
Kids practice using their hands by drawing, cutting, and playing with small toys, which helps them get better at using their hands and fingers.
Through activities like drawing and holding crayons or pencils, kids get ready for writing by strengthening their hand muscles.
There’s plenty of time for running, jumping, and climbing, helping kids get stronger and better at moving their bodies. Games like balancing, hopping, and throwing help with coordination.
We talk about how to eat healthy foods and stay active, teaching kids how to take care of their bodies.
Kids are encouraged to explore, ask lots of questions, and try new things through hands-on play. Sorting toys, experimenting with different objects, and exploring nature help them think and problem-solve.
Through counting, recognizing shapes, and playing with patterns, children build a strong understanding of numbers and math concepts.
Kids learn to stay focused during activities and games, helping them remember what they’ve learned and finish tasks.
Through simple science experiments and nature walks, children begin to understand how things work. They learn about cause and effect, like why things fall or how plants grow.
This has been the best preschool experience in my eight years as a parent! My daughter has thrived socially and academically at Crossing Borders while immersing in Spanish. The welcoming, passionate teachers create a warm, supportive environment. It’s not just a school—it’s a place we’re proud to call home!
