We hope that children learn to enjoy and appreciate all forms of literature at home and at school. Throughout the day, children are exposed to math language skills and concepts. Math manipulative are used to learn how to reproduce patterns, sort and classify objects, and to count 1-1 correspondence to 20. Students practice counting daily by rote to 50 and their number skills to 20. Math is integrated into all of the other curriculums.
Students receive a half hour of physical education each week.
Small muscle or fine motor skills are developed when practicing coloring, cutting, tracing, and forming shapes, letters and numbers. All children are encouraged to dress themselves independently. To see a child bloom in self-confidence and class participation is very rewarding. The guidance counselor's program along with a variety of classroom strategies are implemented to promote respect and consideration for others. Students are expected to display appropriate school behavior.
