Kindergarten Curriculum

Our Kindergarten program at Saint Paul School is based on a philosophy that each child is a unique individual within a diverse classroom setting. Our full day schedule in our center-based classroom includes a curriculum which integrates Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Religion, Social Studies and Science. Our students experience a variety of extracurricular activities such as Music, Art, Physical Education, Computers and Library while strengthening their fine-motor, gross-motor, social and emotional needs.
Our Kindergarten curriculum consists of the Scott Foresman’s Reading Street Program and Math Program. Within the reading series, the students are grouped according to their skill level. Our goal is to create successful, confident and independent readers by the end of the school year. Families are encouraged to participate in the weekly reading assignments that are sent home. In addition, a number of sight words are expected to be identified throughout the year. Weekly assessments are conducted to monitor progress in order to differentiate instruction.
The Math program at Saint Paul School introduces skills that include recognizing and writing numerals 0-31, counting orally by ones, fives, and tens, adding and subtracting using manipulatives and number lines. Graphing, sorting, patterning, telling time, and identifying coin values are also taught throughout the year.

Our students participate in daily prayer services and attend Mass monthly. Our faith-filled environment fosters an awareness of respect, morale, cooperation and service among our students.
