Kindergarten

Kindergarten students spend time working individually and as a class to learn the basic skills to succeed in school. In language arts, students focus on phonics, sight words, reading and handwriting skills. In religion, kindergartners learn they are part of God's family and they can pray to Him at any time. During math, the children enjoy taking part in a variety of interactive, hands-on activities that involve working out problems on the SMARTBoard. Objects such as counters, buttons and pattern blocks are also used to do simple counting, addition and subtraction, and to create patterns. Social studies and science are very exciting because of the ways the children have the opportunity to learn, through real world experiences and hands-on experiments. Kindergarten is more than learning the basics; the children learn how to share, work and play together inside the classroom and on the playground. They paint, build, play and create arts and crafts. Kindergarten is a busy room where children have fun while learning.
