Private Kindergarten Program
A Kindergarten program is available for those children who meet a certain set of criteria and exhibit signs of readiness (usually by 4 1/2-- 5 years of age).
Students who are enrolled in the Kindergarten program spend the afternoons working with Ms. Debi on:
Reading Books and Poetry
Writing Words and Short Stories
Addition, Subtraction and Multiplication
Phonics
Expressive Writing and Journals
Writing Numbers
Painting and Art
Yoga
The Afternoon Kindergarten class is from 12:30 to 1:30pm. The Kindergarten program is offered to full time students in addition to the Primary class' three hour Montessori work period in the morning.
