Other auditory learners concentrate better at a task when they have music or white noise in the background, or retain new information better when they talk it out.

Your child should understand that this commitment offers your time to all students. If he/she requires your undivided attention, or will not participate in activities outside your particular group, volunteering is not suggested. There will be many other opportunities to join our class during the year.

The curriculum provides an academic core which consists of an introduction to mathematical concepts, activities to develop reading readiness skills and, an introduction to manuscript writing. It also consists of activities in the general and social sciences, as well as the promotion of appreciation of music, art, and literature. Motor facilitation activities are offered to promote the development of the child's large muscle coordination and body awareness. The development of appropriate work habits is important to a successful school experience. The child should become capable of working independently and in a group, to listen and follow directions, and to relate stories and personal experiences. The amount of formal instruction that can be given is governed by the ability and maturity of the children in each class. Play in the Kindergarten is a planned learning activity to help your child develop mentally, physically, emotionally, and socially. The child is not aware that these planned activities are anything but fun ("play"). Here is a brief outline of the areas of study which will be presented to your child during the coming year. Individual children may be offered alternative materials to meet special needs. The kindergarten staff urges parents to attend regularly scheduled parent-teacher conferences and to contact your child's teacher if they have any questions about progress.

Reasons to Think about Making Writing Fun When everyone needs a break from using picture books to teach narrative writing , make writing fun for both teacher and students by adding an art component to some of your writing activities. Students need to practice the kind of writing required for state testing programs, but there are many ways to prepare them for the test and help them acquire the skills they need. Art is a natural activity to accompany writing for several reasons. The developmental stages of each process parallel each other from the time a child begins to scribble until he or she is able to organize written vocabulary into stories and visual images into pictures. Compare the Developmental Stages of Writing and Artterms very young children use interchangeably.
