Kindergarten
The Kindergarten curriculum is robust and diverse, responding to the varied ways that children at this age learn and grow. Kindergarten students have a growing sense of cause and effect. They use language to problem solve. They take responsibility for their own actions. They continue to practice group skills such as waiting for a turn or sharing space, time, and resources.
Throughout the year, Kindergarteners are learning to negotiate roles in social settings. They have a growing ability to concentrate and participate in group settings, such as meeting time, and they can follow multi-step directions. They have awareness of and beginning empathy for the feelings of others. They are beginning to use their knowledge of a variety of strategies in their writing and reading. Developing confidence and independence is a major developmental task in Kindergarten.
