It’s almost time again to decide where your Johnston County child will be attending Kindergarten for the Fall of 2010. March 25 is Johnston County Public Schools’ Kindergarten registration date. Kids R Kids of Clayton is having a Kindergarten Information Session to present details on the 5-star childcare provider’s Kindergarten program.
The sessions dates and times are as follows:
February 18th, 2010 – 6:00pm
March 18th, 2010 – 6:00pm
The Kids R Kids of Clayton Private Kindergarten program is enriched with a standards-based curriculum, wonderful learning stations, and an abundance of creative learning activities students will enjoy. It is based on national and state standards with weekly units comprised of academic lessons and literature-based activities. The program’s goal is to meet the needs of each Kindergartner while implementing positive learning strategies. Children benefit from significantly lower teacher/student ratios than local public schools. The program’s ratio is 1/10 whereas local public schools ratios are at 1/21 (Wake County) and 1:18.5 (Johnston County).
The Kids ‘R’ Kids Kindergarten curriculum is designed for continuous educational growth and is comprised of six academic categories: social studies, science, language and literacy, mathematics, character development, and creative expression. Independent and small group activities develop and reinforce student understanding of the subject material. These activities also build independent and cooperative learning skills.
- Literacy Activities help children build their language skills.
- Mathematics Activities develop children’s understanding of number concepts as well as beginning arithmetic and problem-solving skills.
- Small Group Discovery provides daily enrichments and station enhancement activities.
- Art Station presents free-choice art opportunities.
- Construction Station develops spatial awareness through stacking, sorting, building, and recreating.
- Dramatic Play Station encourages individual and group role play activities with realistic and imaginary props.
- Library Station promotes independent reading and a love of books.
- Sensory Station allows children to experiment with a variety of materials.
Kids ‘R’ Kids believes establishing a positive learning environment where children are “hugged first, then taught” will help them reach their potential and develop a love for learning. We welcome all who are interested. Hope to see you there!
