Kindergarten marks the beginning of formal education, and the curriculum is designed to prepare children for the elementary school years. The focus shifts from play-based learning to a more structured and academically oriented approach.
While these additional skills are introduced in kindergarten, the emphasis is still on nurturing a love of learning and ensuring a positive, supportive learning environment for young students.
Here are some of the additional skills and expectations for children as they move from pre-kindergarten to kindergarten:
When a child joins a playgroup class, they typically engage in activities that are designed to promote their overall development through play-based learning.
Playgroup classes provide a foundation for future learning by fostering a positive attitude towards education and helping children develop the fundamental skills needed for success in school and beyond.
The emphasis in playgroups is on creating a nurturing and stimulating environment that encourages exploration, creativity, and social interaction.
When a child transitions from a playgroup class to a nursery or pre-kindergarten class, they are expected to build upon the foundational skills acquired during the playgroup stage.
Nursery classes introduce more structured and academically oriented learning experiences, so children will develop additional skills on top of what they learned in the playgroup.
The goal is to provide a strong foundation for future academic success while continuing to foster their social and emotional growth.
