Step Into Kindergarten

In kindergarten, the major goal is to help your child become comfortable by achieving academic success within the classroom. They will learn to get along with others, follow rules, and some of the basic skills needed to read, write, and do math. For example, they will need to know: letter recognition (upper and lower case), letter sounds, numbers 1-20, and sight words.
