Preschool Room B houses 14 children ages 33 months to 3 years old. The current child to teacher ratio is 10 to 1, however it will transition to 7 to 1 by September 2007.

The Room B head teacher has been with Como Community Child Care for 2 years. She has a degree in Sociology along with a major in Psychology and has had numerous years of experience working with children

Room B has a set schedule that they follow daily which allows for many fun and educational activities for the children including fine motor skills (focus on strengthening the muscles needed for writing by cutting, tracing, manipulating small objects, and completing individual shelf work.), gross motor and movement activities, early math concepts (recognizing letters, counting in both Spanish and English an simple addition), early literacy and language development, creative art activities, dramatic play and practical life activities, musical expression and sensory exploration. There is a balance between child-initiated and teacher-directed activities. They focus on allowing children to explore and become independent, as well as developing social skills amongst their peers. They encourage creative thinking and positive interaction while allowing children to develop at their own pace and reach their full potential.
