Kindergarten
How can I be myself and be a leader in the class?
Our Kindergarten program is designed to help students transition smoothly from the Preschool environment to our Elementary program. In a class with approximately 24 students, two Head Teachers, and a Teaching Assistant, our students expand their social circle while receiving one-on-one attention as they begin a more formal exploration of academic subjects and social-emotional growth.
Language Arts
Phonics and phonemic awareness, reading phonetic books, reading sight words, poetry, journal writing
Math
Addition and subtraction to 20 with manipulatives, patterns, estimation, measurement, 2D and 3D shapes, exposure of numbers to 100, place value introduction, odd and even numbers.
Science
Hands on experiential learning with nature and materials
In alignment with current education research, The San Francisco School does not assign homework for our Kindergarten students, but we encourage nightly reading.
