Kindergarten Curriculum

 Religion
  • ​​Kindergarteners learn about God’s grace and love through reading the Bible, singing songs, and participating in various activities, including weekly all-school chapel. Children repeatedly hear and learn that God loves them and all people. Also, that God sent Jesus to take away their sins, as well as the sins of others. Children are encouraged to share the news of his love!

Art
  • Young students will explore and create with a wide variety of media, such as painting, drawing, and collages. The focus is to allow the students to create using imagination while being introduced to the basic elementary elements of art.

Drama
  • Students have the opportunity to participate in two dramatic activities yearly. The first is our Christmas Eve program which is presented by students in kindergarten through 8th grade. The second is our spring play presented by the Kindergarten through 4th grades. ​

Health/Physical Education​
  • Students learn gross motor skills in dynamic ways. Each month is a different unit with age appropriate drills and activities. The units are as follows:  running, volleyball, basketball, dance, cooperative games, gymnastics, jump rope, soccer, badminton, and parachute games.

Social Studies
  • Kindergarteners learn about themselves, their families, and the world around them. Social studies focuses on students' everyday communities.

Literacy

By using correct handwriting strokes, children learn to form each letter. Children learn to recognize sight words and sound out words by reading simple stories and discussing letters and words. Stories are also read to the children.
Math
