Fundationso Phonological Awareness

o Letter formation /Handwriting

o Vocabulary

o High Frequency Words

o Fluency

o Spelling

o Punctuation/Capitalization

In kindergarten, your little one will learn letter formation by "sky writing", which involves gross motor movements, before they practice writing on paper.  Letter names and sounds are learned, alphabetic principle established, and phonological awareness is emphasized.  We will practice manipulating sound cards and "tapping" sounds on our fingers to help us learn to read and write CVC (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant) words.  These skills are fundamental in our journey to learn how to read and write.

Our lessons carefully sequence skills that include print knowledge, alphabet awareness, phonological awareness, phonemic awareness, decoding, spelling, handwriting, and vocabulary development.  We practice critical thinking, speaking, and listening skills during storytime activities.  Together we will lay a great foundation that your little one can build on the remainder of their education.
