Kindergarten

Kindergarten (4 to 5 years old)

Our kindergarten classes are designed to maximize learning opportunities in core academic skills as children engage in multifaceted, interactive tasks organized around a weekly thematic schedule. Instruction includes differentiated strategies, cooperative learning, scaffolding, and tasks involving higher order thinking skills.

In language arts for example, language is presented orally using stories, picture books, songs, and flashcards, and children are exposed to phonetic tasks (Jolly Phonics http://cis-japan.co.jp/en/about-jolly-phonics.php) and letter manipulation games. They also learn purposeful language in order to express and share their ideas. In addition, library, music, physical education, and technology are important areas that will form children’s daily curriculum.

Math tasks include counting by one-to-one correspondence, sequential ordering, looking for visual patterns, sorting and categorizing items and simple computation which helps build a solid foundation for the next level.

Science is the process of learning about the natural world through observation and experiment. Science naturally sparks children's curiosity and motivates us to investigate our surroundings. In our science classes we learn how to think and make informed decisions about the things we see as well as giving us the opportunity to gain knowledge of how and why things function as they do. We collect information, ask questions, organize and test our ideas and learn how to make predictions. This process of doing science develops critical thinking and helps to solve problems and be able to confirm or reject hypotheses.
