Kindergarten Readiness
Kindergarten is a magical year when students grow into thriving learners. All students learn and grow at their own pace. Below we have some information about kindergarten readiness. Please note that these are just suggestions and it is okay if your child is unable to master some of these skills prior to the start of school.
Personal Skills
Use the restroom independently (We are unable to assist with wiping and dressing. If your child has an accident he/she will be assisted by the school nurse and/or guardians will be contacted. If your child has a medical requirement for the bathroom please contact the school health assistant)
Wash their hands independently
Get dressed on their own (but still may need help with buttons, zippers, and shoelaces. Please continue to work towards independence with buttons, zippers, shoes, jackets and snow boots throughout the school year)
Can zip and unzip their backpacks
Know and can say their first and last name and age
Open snack containers
Manage lunchbox and be able to clean up after themselves (Kindergarten paras will support students in the cafeteria)
Blow nose and use tissues independently
Academics
Identify first and last name and be able to write first name
Practice holding a writing utensil with a functional grip
Know basic shapes (square, rectangle, circle, triangle) and colors
Identify some letters of the alphabet and sounds
Count from 1-10

Social/Emotional Skills
Kindergarten is the year where students learn their special place in a community. At home, we encourage families to talk with their child about positive school behavior.
Share with friends (even when it’s really hard)
Separate from parents/caregivers without getting overly upset
Keep all body parts to themselves
Take turns speaking, listen to others, and raise their hand when they want to share
Sit and listen to stories
Use a quiet voice inside the classroom
Manage anger and frustration in appropriate ways
Be kind to everyone
Solve conflicts in appropriate ways
Seek adult help when needed
We will be covering all these topics throughout the school year. We appreciate the support you give to your student to help him/her be successful in their school community!
