About Seeds of Knowledge Seeds of Knowledge
offers preschool and daycare for ages 4 months to
10 years of age. We are a registered daycare
ministry of Floyds Knobs Christian Church. Our
curriculum has a primary emphasis on the
individual child. Our classrooms are center-based
with new activities and lessons planned
regularly. Rooms are designed so that children
have numerous choices within an environment of
maximum learning. Teachers act primarily as
facilitators encouraging a strong partnership
between the home and the daycare. Seeds of
Knowledge is designed for children to explore
newly found independence. Through individualized
prescribed instruction, they engage in
stimulating activities led by skilled and trained
Lead Teachers. During their day, children take
part in hands-on social interactions, physical
activity, preschool, arts, crafts, and dramatics
which build on their individual character.
While under careful guidance and direction, the
children are given opportunities to express
themselves and to be creative through active
learning. We have prepared organized imagination
stations that are developmentally appropriate
for them to interact freely with peers and
designed for team development in a diverse
setting.
Teachers My name is Annie Shearer and I am the
Director of Seeds of Knowledge. Seeds of
Knowledge was previously run under the name Play
4 Hours. Play 4 Hours opened in October of 2007
and I took ownership in January 2010. My
background includes extensive training,
experience, and passion for children to learn in
a nurturing environment. I graduated from Purdue
University in December of 2007, with a Bachelors
of Art degree in Elementary Education. After
graduating, I taught 2nd grade in Noblesville,
IN. Although I loved the elementary aged kids,
my dream has always been to own my own
preschool/daycare! I worked at Play 4 hours
nearly 2 years before being offered to take over
the business. It is my goal to create and
implement activities beneficial to each childs
learning. I strive to meet the needs of all of
the students. I also understand learning can be a
difficult task at this young age, and believe all
children should be supported in their abilities
to learn. Children are unique in their own ways,
and are shaped by everyday experiences. It is
important to me to make these experiences not
only fun, exciting, and educational, but also
inspire them to ascend in the steps of learning.
All teachers are trained and certified in
First Aid and CPR. Each of them are involved in
the community and have several years experience
working with and caring for children of all
ages. We will continue to grow professionally
through further education and training with the
help of my staff and the community.
Daily Activities Schedule Upon Arrival (7am-8am)
- Welcome friends/teachers and have free choice
activities. Breakfast - Served between 8am and
9am. The mornings are designated for preschool
activities that enhance listening skills and fine
and gross motor skills. In addition, children
will learn as they have fun with circle time,
shared reading, art, singing songs, and exploring
the outdoors. Preschool (9am-11am) Students
are assessed and placed into classrooms based on
their age and/or skill level. Each classroom is
set up and designed to meet the need of each and
every child. We have two curriculums one
designed for the toddlers, and one designed for
the 4-5 year olds. I am confident with these
curriculums, your child will be ready for
kindergarten when the time comes! Lunch -
Served between 11 am and 12 pm. Nap Time
(12pm-230pm) This time is used for all
children to relax and have down time. For those
children who do not nap, they are taken into a
separate room and are allowed a movie at this
time. All babies have their own crib. All older
children have their own cot which is placed in
their classroom during nap time. Snack - Served
between 230 pm and 300 pm. The afternoons are
designated for structured and self-guided
activities with peers. They will participate in
outside time, pretend play, games, art, story
time, dress-up, and more. After School These
children will be dropped off around 230 pm, and
immediately go into the kitchen for snack. They
will then go upstairs to their room and complete
any homework with one of the teachers. When
homework is complete, these kids will do an
activity or craft before ending the day with free
time.
