These are testimonials that parents have given to Seamons Educational Products. These testimonials are based upon the material that we have developed in conjunction with a local preschool. Because the children have used these materials in the local preschool they are better prepared for Kindergarten than other children who have not had the same opportunity.
When Larry was 3 years old, that was 2 years ago, he was only doing 1 word sentences. He had a vocabulary of less than 50 words which is what the test showed. He started attending Seamons Preschool in the school year of 2008-2009. Larry began in September and by November, everyone that knew Larry, my family and my friends, were commenting on the remarkable improvement that Larry had made since he entered Seamons Preschool. "It was an immediate change." Now Larry talks in real sentences and because Seamons Preschool didn't baby Larry, he is showing how smart he is. Now that Larry has been in their Preschool during this school year of 2009-2010, I am more sure than ever before that Larry is ready to walk in, and sit down, and do really very well in Kindergarten.

To whom this may concern;
Braylon started at the Seamons's Preschool when he was 3 1/2 years old. He is now five and will be starting Kindergarten in the Fall. He passed the Kindergarten assessment with no problems. He was able to identify numbers, letters, shapes, and colors. Braylon loves to write his whole name and he can write all of his letters. Braylon and I go over his homework, when he gets home from school. He is excited to show me what he has learned and all the stickers he has gotten from doing his work correctly. We used the packets last summer so that he would not lose any of the information he was taught during the school year. The papers are very easy to understand and he knows what is expected of him after he is told the simple instructions. He especially enjoys the stories/picture books that use the letter he is working on that specific week. What I like about the packets, as a parent, is the way they make learning fun. Braylon likes the dot to dot using ABC's and 123's, to connect and make a picture and then he colors it. He has no idea that he is doing "homework". If only he will enjoy doing homework this much when he gets older.

I am so amazed and so happy about everything Alli has learned at Seamons Preschool. She has learned to write her name beautifully-by herself, to recite the alphabet forward and backwards, to write the letters uppercase and lowercase, to count to 100 and to write numbers.
I've noticed that Allie wants to write words now, to spell words correctly, like a list of groceries. She'll ask me if the letter is "big or small".
These are few examples of what Seamons Preschool has done to prepare Allie for Kindergarten. As a working mom, I'm unable to do these things on a daily basis. It makes me feel so good to know Allie is learning and preparing for Kindergarten, even though I can't do it.

Hanna's birth mother came from the Marshall Island. So she is Marshallese. We are so happy we could adopt her. When she was finished with going to the Seamons Preschool, she was one of the most prepared children in her class. There was only 1 little girl that seemed to be ahead of her and that's because her mother must have found out that at Hanna's Kindergarten class the children would be expected to know sight words.
Because Hanna had learned the alphabet so well, she was able to learn how to read rather easily.

Ellen loved to work on the computer with Mr. Seamons. She was totally ready for Kindergarten. She liked the stories in booklet form.

The Seamons's Preschool helped Tanner spell his name in a short manner of time. He can count to 100 very well.
His favorite story he talked about the most and really enjoyed was the Three Little Pigs they taught and read the kids. He will be very prepared for Kindergarten this fall thanks to the Seamons's Preschool.
The Seamons's Preschool was able to help Chenoah improve her skills as a student in writing her name. She was able to catch up with her skills and knowledge for preparation for Kindergarten.
Thank you for preparing Chianne with the tools necessary for Kindergarten. She enjoys her time spent with you, as teachers. I am amazed with her ability to recite her abc's backwards. It amazes the rest of my family that Chianne can sing the abc song backwards.

To Whom It May Concern:
Betty , preschool owner and educator of Seamons Preschool, has asked me to write a letter in regards to the curriculum, learning materials, and teaching tools used in the preschool. Because my child recently attended her preschool, I have firsthand knowledge of the positive experience that students receive, and therefore, I am happy to comply with her wishes to write this letter.
In my opinion, the educators were professional, caring, skillful in the manner they taught, and clever in the various ways to motivate and help students learn. The curriculum was organized, easy to understand, fun to learn, and structured. The learning materials and teaching tools were professional in appearance, simple and fun to use, pertinent to the content being taught, and an excellent supplimentary resource to help parents review important preschool concepts.
My child, with high-functioning autism, thrived in her preschool and truly benefited from this program. He was able to learn important preschool concepts that prepared him to enter into mainstream kindergarten.
Sincerly;

This last year with Ryker going to Seamons Preschool has been so exciting. We chose this school cause they get a lot of one on one teaching that we felt Ryker needed as well as a very disciplined setting that was great.
We have seen much improvement every week he brings his papers home for us to see. He gets so excited on Thursdays when he shows us his weekly sticker paper with all the stickers and big stickers he was awarded for listening and following the instructions.
His learning skills have excelled so much I am amazed that he can count to 100, stay in the lines while coloring, matching, dot to dots with letters and numbers. He writes his name very well as well as his upper and lowercase letters and numbers.
At his Kindergarten Roundup he flew thru it with ease. He is so excited to go to Kindergarten and we feel that the teachers at Seamons Preschool deserve all the credit. We've been very impressed with them and the positive attitude they have shown Ryker through his learning experience.
Charity had fun in the Seamons's Preschool. Charity had the privilege of attending pre-school for 2 years due to her late birthday. She had an easy time going to Kindergarten since she was used to going to school already. She wanted to go to school all day instead of the 1/2 day. She was already ahead of most of the other kids. The Seamons's did a good job.
