Kindergarten Kindergarten is an exciting time.
Children meet new friends, interact with new teachers and expand their knowledge of the world.
Our Kindergarten curriculum is an integrated, thematic approach to learning. Within each thematic unit, the children strengthen their literacy development through the use of big books and other materials. Children make predictions about the text, recognize capital and lower-case letters, associate sounds with letters and participate in the reading and writing of stories. During integrated math lessons, the children work in cooperative groups to sort, extend patterns, count and problem solve. In accordance with the New York State Standards, the children participate in activities that foster a connection to real world experiences.
