The Good and The Beautiful language arts course lays a strong foundation for Kindergarten students in a fun and engaging way. It incorporates God, family, nature, art, and strong moral values. This curriculum combines the following subjects all into one course: reading, phonics, writing, spelling, literature, grammar, punctuation, geography, and art. Throughout the year, will cover over 80 foundational principles, such as handwriting, phonics, spelling, homophones, plural nouns, capitalization, discussing literature, art appreciation, poetry memorization, using appropriate pencil grip, reading comprehension, studying and creating maps, starting sentences with capital letters, and so much more. Students will also hear a variety of read alouds that include some favorites and classics in children’s literature. They will engage in activities, games and crafts based on the books we read in class. My hope for kindergarten is that your students will develop a love for phonics and reading that will set them up for success in the future.
