Kindergarten Kingdom - Full Kindergarten Curriculum

🚨🚨 This class is in high demand! Please enroll your learner as early as possible to avoid missing a seat. Maximum capacity is 10 students per class and I will not be able to add extra seats this year. New fall classes begin September 8, 2025. Thanks so much! 🚨🚨

This 32-week class will cover all kindergarten curriculum to fully prepare learners to enter 1st grade! 🎓🎓

We will be learning through fun, energetic activities that appeal to all styles of learning. Throughout this course, learners will:
- learn/review all letters and their sounds (phonemes & graphemes), letter formation, spelling & phonics rules, and heart/high-frequency words with a strong "Science of Reading" (SOR) approach.
- learn/review numbers, number formation, and beginning math skills
- learn/review colors & shapes
- learn all kindergarten language arts skills
- learn all kindergarten social studies content
- learn all kindergarten science content

All learning will take place in a warm, silly, laid-back, inclusive, and fun environment.

🐶 🐝 Our class mascot, Pip the Pup, and his friend, Spencer the Spelling Bee, will join us every day to share some awesome stories with us that align with the class content. 🐶 🐝

I will be using a few different resources to ensure that all of my students' learning styles are addressed. These resources include:
→ Short video clips
→ Songs with Movements
→ Full-screen, Super Engaging Presentations
→ Graphics, Learning Activities, & Games
→ Super Fun Decodable Books
→ HUGE Weekly Printable Packets (These are optional, but an incredibly great supplement)

⭐️ This class meets 4x per week. [Monday-Thursday]. We will not have class on Fridays to allow students to rest and recharge over the weekend. ⭐️

🛎️ Please note that the vast majority of our actual live class time is devoted to phonics as reading is the most important skill for learners to master at this level. All kindergarten benchmarks are covered in our weekly home packets. Each week, individual packets for the following subjects will be posted in the classroom: 1. phonics, 2. reading, 3. word work, 4. word mapping, 5. heart words, 6. math, 7.  science, 8. social studies, and 9. language arts. These packets are fully aligned with our syllabus and learning goals.

📅 Please see class syllabus for a full breakdown of each week's material.

✏️ Class Materials ✏️
→ Laminated Printed Materials - Upon enrollment, students will be provided with a few printable materials that they will need to either laminate or put in sheet protectors/dry erase sleeves so they can use them during our live sessions. This will include a word-mapping mat, a handwriting mat, a consonants sound wall and vowel sound wall, an alphabet reference guide, and letter writing formations charts. They will also have a few pages to print weekly which will come in the weekly packet.
→ Dry Erase Markers
→ Pencil
→ Highlighter
→ Small Dry Erase Board & Markers- Students will use their dry erase boards daily in class.
→ Small BINGO chips, coins, or any small items to use when mapping words.
→ 1-Subject Notebook or Binder with Loose-Leaf Paper- Students will be keeping an interactive notebook with lots of materials from our lessons. We will add to our notebooks each week.
→ A "Tens Frame" Pop-It. (They do not need to have the numbers on them) We will use these for math time and also for mapping words. Here is a link to the ones I have → https://a.co/d/9mZdfHI
→ OPTIONAL: Printable Home Packets - Each lesson will include HUGE printable packets for all material covered in that lesson. You are welcome to print these pages for your learner to do at home, but it is not required. [Side-note: If your learner has taken any of my preschool classes, you may have printed some of these materials before. Do not feel obligated to print the entire packet!] These weekly packets will be posted in the classroom on the Saturday before we cover the material.
→ If students are completing the optional printable packets, they will need glue sticks, crayons and child scissors for some of the activities.
