| The
Wee School's Kindergarten class is designed to
prepare children for first grade. When paired with Erie Elementary's
kindergarten class, your child can experience the benefits of
a full time kindergarten class.
Our curriculum
will include Read From the Start (similar to Erie's The Right
Stuff), Everyday Mathematics, Math Their Way, Writer's Workshop
and we will also study in the areas of science, social studies
and art. We will reinforce the basics in reading ,writing and
mathematics, while providing instruction on different themes in
the areas of science and social studies.
This class
will compliment Erie Elementary's kindergarten schedule and curriculum.
For example, if Erie studies the life cycle of a chick, we would
study the life cycle of a plant. Therefore specific themes will
not be duplicated, yet core knowledge standards (example: life
cycles) will be enriched.
The benefits
of this class include:
- Continuing
to develop a positive self concept and attitude toward learning
- Opportunity
to further develop and extend new skills being learned
- Small
class size (approximately 15 students)
- Reinforcement
of basic concepts for struggling students
- Provide
an academic alternative to day care
The Wee School
Director, Joni Seaward, is well qualified to teach this class.
