Private Kindergarten

The Kindergarten curriculum closely follows the principles of Montessori education. Our holistic approach to education is evident as we support the opportunities for development socially, physically, intellectually and emotionally for each child. Children are able to move on when ready for a new challenge. Therefore, lessons are presented in small groups to the children and through observation, the teacher determines when the child has internalized a concept and is ready for a new concept.The Kindergarten year highlights critical thinking, independence, comprehension, and preparedness for elementary.

Kindergarten

At this age, children display an awareness of their thought processes and begin understanding how to make plans, execute those plans, and reflect on their results. Their self-confidence and management skills go hand-in-hand with their growing academic capabilities, leading to a meaningful year in preparation for elementary school. Your kindergartener will be immersed in the written word through stories, plays, daily journals, and technology projects. Trips to the class child-run market or restaurant bring math to life and science will come alive for them with hands-on experiments and projects.

Kindergarten

Our kindergarten curriculum focuses on developing foundational skills that prepare students for later learning in the areas of math, science, social studies, and language arts. Understanding the alphabet and reading comprehension is a primary instruction in Kindergarten. Children begin to develop writing skills with guidance by using a combination of drawing, storytelling, and writing to convey an event or share an opinion. Kindergarteners learn to count to 100 by ones and tens and write numbers from zero to twenty. They are introduced to life science, physical science, earth science, and space science. Introduction to foreign language incorporates songs, drawing, coloring, and cultural visual aids.
