Kindergarteners
are actively engaged in all aspects of language arts as they develop their oral
language skills and begin to read and write. In kindergarten, children learn to
recognize the letters of the alphabet and understand the sounds letters make.
Students in kindergarten learn to hold a crayon and pencil correctly and print
the letters of the alphabet in upper- and lowercase forms. Teachers lead
discussions on the meanings of words and encourage students to express
themselves in complete thoughts. In kindergarten, students listen to a wide
variety of children’s literature, respond to questions, picture, pop up media and retell stories.
Students learn to read some words by sight such as “the,” and write
consonant-vowel-consonant words such as “cat.” While children develop at
different rates, by the end of kindergarten, most children should be able to use
their knowledge of sounds,
picture, and pop up media to write simple sentences.
