Kindergarten marks an important transition from preschool to the primary grades.
Kindergarten has four major goals in helping children develop skills needed to be successful in school. Intellectual growth is the obvious goal we work on, but social skills , emotional adjustment , and physical development are important to the development of the whole child. We also work on helping children function in a structured, scheduled environment, handle new out of home experiences, and cope with compromises and disappointments that come with being in group situations. Physical movement is natural and essential for young children, and the kindergarten classroom allows for a balance between physical movement and quiet activities.
