Kindergarten Program

The Kindergarten community is full of wonder. Practical Life skills are a way of life as the children take personal responsibility for their community by keeping it clean, ordered, purposeful, and decorated with work. By now, students have learned to manage and take responsibility for their own personal needs. Grace and courtesy in and out of the classroom is evident and displayed willingly.

Students work hard learning to write, increasing geography skills, and further develop a foundation in math and reading. Sewing and handwork activities aid the development of eye/hand coordination in addition to reinforcing other areas of the curriculum. Movement and other motor development activities help to develop coordination and dexterity as well as sportsmanship. Music and art skills develop further at this level.

The classroom environment is rich with “work” on the shelves containing concepts to be discovered, and skills to be developed. Social problems will be sorted, and joy will be gained as students develop friendships and learn that their words and acceptable actions are a means to positive relationships.
