This Family Guide takes the mystery out of what happens in the classroom and provides parents and caregivers with the information and tools they need to support their children academically in literacy and math, which are the building-block subjects for everything else. With this Guide, families can engage more deeply in their children’s education, advocate for them, and build partnerships with their teachers – thus developing the strong bond between students, families, and teachers that ensures kids thrive.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts sets expectations, or standards, for what every student will know and be able to do in school. This guide is designed to help you understand those standards and partner with teachers to support your child’s learning during kindergarten.
