Program 4 of 4 · Ages 5+ years
Senior KG
Ready for big school, and still enjoying the learning.
The year in essence
Simple books get read now. Writing happens for reasons the child actually has, numbers start to behave, and a project can run over several days without falling apart. What we guard hardest is everything that got them here: play, art, running about outside, and the feeling that the learning belongs to them, because that is what carries a child happily into Std. I.

What this year builds
Three pillars of Senior KG
Reading and writing
From blending sounds to reading short books, and writing for reasons that matter to them: labels, cards, lists, little stories.
Thinking in numbers
Number bonds, measuring, shapes and simple problem-solving, all grounded in things they can see and move.
Ready for a classroom
Sitting with a task, sticking with it, working alongside others, managing themselves. The quiet skills every Std. I teacher hopes a child arrives with.
