Unless they have a question, students work independently. If they need help, a volunteer or teacher is available. Even those students without homework do something like read a book or practice math word problems. The KIN program has access to the school district curriculum, so staff members have designed theme-based activities around units of study. This particular week the science curriculum is supplemented by after-school activities like worm farming, studying bees with a beekeeper, making compost, and observing live ladybugs.
Card games incorporate addition and multiplication as well as matching sets and patterns.
Riddles and stories help develop reasoning skills and interest in reading.
