Our goal for Kindergarten is to create enthusiastic, independent learners. Students learn to be in school and socialize within a new environment; they feel pride when they accomplish their goals. We want them to feel empowered, confident, and excited about the learning process. 

Curriculum Highlights: 

Alphabet, American Sign Language, Handwriting

Story writing using high frequency words

Building reading and writing stamina using Daily 5 and 6+1 Traits

Number sense, numbers to 100, counting by 5’s and 10’s

Kindergarten uses the Oregon Common Core Standards in Language Arts and Math

​

Religion Highlights: 

Prayers: Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, Sign of the Cross

Students will learn: God is our loving Father who makes every person special and God watches over us and all creation.

​

Homework: 

Homework is a tool to reinforce the skills and concepts learned that week.

Homework goes home every Friday or last day of the school week.

In the spring, students will have homework every night in preparation for 1st grade.

Parents as Teammates: 

Parents play a vital role in the kindergarten experience.

Remember: reinforce skills at home, communication is key, trust the process, encourage independence and be positive!
