​​Welcome to Kindergarten Readiness: Private Trial Class!

This class will focus on Unit 1, Lesson 1 of "Kindergarten Readiness." During this one-time class, we will focus on preparing your child for Kindergarten. We will cover math skills, phonics, literacy, vocabulary, and science through games and interactive activities.  Through purposeful play, this class will provide an enriching learning experience that is tailored to the specific developmental level of your child. We will practice valuable social skills, as well as hone in on social-emotional intelligence.  This class is a great way to trial my Kindergarten Readiness course, and get to know me as a teacher, as well as my teaching style. We can also use a few minutes of this class to talk about future classes and what the curriculum would look like so that it meets the needs of your child. This class will prepare your little one to feel confident in school.
