Our kindergarten class is designed for 16 students with one teacher. The teacher
has an education degree and is trained to teach early childhood. The teacher
also receives annual training to enhance skills.
Kindergarten is designed to provide mastery of skills needed before entering
first grade. The teacher provides a rich environment for unit teaching.
Multi-sensory activities are used in learning centers to teach language
development, visual and auditory perception, motor skills, math concepts, social
development, music and movement skills. The Lippincott ‘Beginning to Read
Series” is used to teach phonics. The Addison-Wesley curriculum is used in
conjunction with manipulatives to teach math. Field trips and visitors are
scheduled to enrich unit topics.
Day care children are provided with a hot lunch, rest time, outdoor play, story
time, and learning center play.
