Teacher: Kristin Penny

For children who are 4 years old

During this very important preparation time, children will strengthen their self-management and communication skills. Our 4’s classes focus on helping children use words and not actions to communicate. Children will learn phonics, phonic blends, and some simple sight words. These lessons will prepare your child with the knowledge and self-confidence to begin reading. Our goal by the end of this year is for your child to recognize all their letters and sounds, 10 colors, 6 shapes, and the numbers 0-50. Children should also learn from memory their address, birth date, phone number, and several short Bible memory verses. Additionally, children will further develop their fine motor skills to zip zippers and tie their shoes.

Children are more successful with active parent participation. We look forward to creating a team with you to help us teach your child.
