Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten
This class will provide a POD for learners. The same students will meet together each day to learn and work together. Friendships and bonds will be created throughout the class. 

This course is designed as a complete kindergarten core curriculum class which follows the Science of Reading/Writing, Next Generation Science Standards and proven math and social studies activities. Student led and teacher facilitated this course will provide exposure to all skills to prepare for first grade.  

The essential questions and learning targets will build upon each other and will be repeated throughout the course. This allows for review and repetition. Opportunities will be provided regularly for students to apply new and previously taught skills. This strategy will ensure students solidify content. The teacher will spiral up or down for each student as the course progresses and student individual needs are identified. 

Students will meet daily with the teacher and each other and a routine will be established inclusive of a welcome song, daily circle time to practice calendar skills, alphabet recognition and phonics sounds, sight words, tracking weather and place value. Students will then be involved in a daily interactive read aloud which will develop literacy skills and comprehension strategies.

After the daily routine meeting will be skill time. Each day the skill will focus on a different content area:
Monday-literacy
Tuesday-writing
Wednesday-science
Thursday-social studies
Friday-social/emotional or self-help skills
