The following is a broad overview of the Kindergarten curriculum. The curriculum has been developed with input from several surrounding towns’ early childhood educators. Our curriculum will be expanded throughout the year and will be adapted to fit our monthly themes.
Each day our Kindergarten students will be challenged with fun learning activities that will help to foster and build their self-esteem, self-confidence and friendship skills on a daily basis. Also, each day they will be exposed to many activities that will enhance their fine motor and gross motor skills.
Our hope is that your child’s Kindergarten experience here at The Ridge Hill School will supply them with a love for learning.
The following is a typical full day’s schedule for our Kindergarten program.
