KINDERGARTEN ACADEMIC PROGRAM
Kindergarten reading builds on letter-sound recognition, how to read words from left to right, and getting your child comfortable with how sounds work together. In addition to this, they will learn sight/picture words.
- Beginning sounds recognition
- Identify and name the letter for each sound
- Sight words identification
- Easy reading with simple words
- Introduction to antonyms
- Introduction to verbs
Kindergarten writing focuses first on the ability to write and then on developing that skill. They start with being able to write the letters of the alphabet and numbers and then words. Over time they will put those words together into simple
sentences. If your child is ready for it, you can also have them write letters to a friend or family member to practice.
- Write capital letters
- Write lowercase letters
- Write sight words
- Write days of the week
- Write months of the year
- Write simple sentences
Kindergarten math has two main focuses: helping children become comfortable with whole numbers and how they work together, and understanding shapes and space.
- Counting, 1-100
- Understand how numbers fit together (what comes before and after)
- Simple addition
- Simple subtraction
- Find the missing number in a math problem (very simple algebra)
- Pattern identification and completion
- Recognize shapes and names (intro to geometry)
- Introduction to telling time Measurements
- Introduction to money
Kindergarten Science focuses on helping your child observe the world around them, as well as teaching them to look a little deeper. WHY do things work this way? How are a seed and a tree connected? Are those little wiggly pollywogs really going to grow legs and become a frog? Is the sun really hot? And so on. These activities are designed to instruct, engage, and spark curiosity.
- Parts of the body
- Weather
- The world around them
- Life Cycles
- Introduction to ocean life
- Seeds and plants
There are extra activities each month that work hand-in-hand with the other content to help pupils develop healthy critical thinking at an age-appropriate level. These activities are meant to engage their mind with hands-on problem-solving
that delights instead of frustrates, helping them learn the pride and joy that comes from doing challenging tasks. They also help build their confidence while engaged with difficult things.
