In Kindergarten, we have a set of standards that students will need to master by the end of the year. Each grading cycle, there are standards in each subject that will guide my instruction and what students will be learning in the classroom. I will reference some of those standards in our newsletter, but all the standards will be listed on the website for you to view. Even though mastery is at the end of the year, some standards build on others and if they are not mastered earlier in the year, it will be harder for your child to meet mastery of the standards at the end. Please try to help your child with these standards at home. I will send home homework. Use the newsletter to work on key skills for the week. You can also look at work that is coming home in your child's folder and reviewing with them.
