In kindergarten, we encourage our students to be open-minded by positively celebrating differences and trying new things. Whether learning about a new culture, working with a different partner, or exploring a new idea, open-mindedness helps children grow socially and academically. Thank you for reinforcing these values at home and helping your child build the confidence to embrace new experiences!

With the final stretch of the school year ahead, we encourage continued support at home by reinforcing fairness in everyday moments. Thank you for your partnership in your child's learning journey!

Central Idea: Organization helps us understand the structure and function of things. 

Learner Profiles in Kindergarten

In reading and writing, our kindergarteners have been working hard on creating story maps based on our class read-alouds. They are learning to identify important story elements such as characters, setting, the problem and solution, and can sequence events from the beginning, middle, and end. In their writing, students are practicing using finger spaces, proper capitalization, and correct punctuation to strengthen their sentence structure and storytelling skills.
