Learning in Kindergarten
In Kindergarten, students learn about their families and community, and write about themselves, others, and information they’ve learned. They will explore numbers through counting, adding, and subtracting and will grow as mathematicians. It's an exciting year to watch them learn to read about and study weather, trees, and other living things in our neighborhood and parks.
