Kindergarten

Bible

Students study children of the Bible in the Old and New Testaments through Bible lessons from the Abeka flashcard series. Godly character traits are reinforced through stories, songs, and activities. Time is spent daily in prayer along with a weekly memory verse.

Handwriting

The Handwriting Without Tears curriculum allows students the opportunity to learn correct letter formation for the printing of letters and words.

Social/Emotional Development

Kindergarten provides a safe environment for students to develop self-regulation skills without the presence of a parent. Students are encouraged to learn to monitor and manage their emotions, actions, and behaviors. Other important skills like taking turns, sharing, and cooperating are worked on as well.

Reading

Phonics is the primary method we use to teach reading. The Abeka curriculum has one of the strongest phonics programs available and provides opportunities for learning letter sounds, blending, digraphs and how to read short and long vowel words.

Social Studies

Our curriculum provides an introduction to helpers in our community, beginnings of American history, interesting features from countries around the world, and simple geography.

Other Activities

We enjoy computer, gross motor development in P.E., music, library, arts and crafts, literacy stations, monthly show and tell, story time, theme weeks and snack times. We also take fun, educational fieldtrips.

Mathematics

The Abeka curriculum educates children to the concepts of counting, patterns, comparisons, number identity, ordinals, place value, addition, subtraction, graphing, money, time and more.

Science

Students will see that God has a plan for all of His creation and that He not only made each living thing, but He also cares for it.
