Junior First Grade is for those children needing an additional year to grow and mature before facing the challenges of first grade. This program is designed to be a half-step in between kindergarten and first grade. This unique curriculum reinforces and expands skills that were presented in kindergarten and prepares children for the skills needed to be successful in first grade.
Jr. First focuses on active learning. Manipulatives are used whenever possible to promote hands-on learning. A wide variety of learning materials are used for skill building and learning new concepts.
Group size is smaller than an average classroom, allowing the teacher to give more individual attention to each student. In addition, by being housed in the Winslow Elementary School, these children will bond with their future peers. They are in gym and music classes together and share lunch times with the kindergarten students.
Please feel free to come and visit our classroom at any time. If you have any questions about our program, please contact Principal Sirgany or myself.
