Kindergarten Information

Reading:

We will read books and use what we know about letters and sounds. We'll also talk about the important parts of a story: the beginning, middle, and end.

Writing:

We will learn to sound out tricky words slowly to help us spell them. We will write simple sentences. Remember these writing rules:

• Start with a capital letter.
• Put spaces between words.
• Use a period, question mark, or exclamation point at the end.

Phonics:

We will practice letter names and sounds. We will learn the sounds of letter groups like sh, ch, th, wh, and -ck. We will read and write simple words like cat, hop, dig, sun, and bed. We will tap out words to read them and stretch out words to spell them.

Math:

We will count up to 20 things. We will learn to count to 100 by ones and tens. We will add by putting groups together and counting on. We will also learn about taking away. We will learn which smaller numbers make up the numbers 6 through 10.

Science:

We will learn about cleaning up the environment.
