CLASS

|
The FRIENDSHIP CORNER KINDERGARTEN CLASS has an academic based curriculum in which children are taught to think, problem solve, share ideas and write & read on their own level. The Kindergarten Teacher incorporates an atmosphere of play that lends itself to learning experiences. The Illinois State Board of Education has outlined their requirements of learning standards for Kindergarten children which will be followed in this class. Children must be 5 Years Old ON or Before September 1st. We offer a full language arts curriculum that prepares children to eagerly read and a hands-on math curriculum that encourages children to problem solve. Phonic reading and writing is stressed to ensure success in elementary education grades. The small class size guarantees individualized attention. The Kindergarten Teacher has a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education and has been teaching at FRIENDSHIP CORNER for 28 years! The Kindergarten class ends with a Graduation Program complete with diplomas and our best wishes for continued success in First Grade.
