Kindergarten - Ms. Smith   


                   Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom!  

 

 Welcome to Ms. Smith's Kindergarten
                            Room!

Early Childhood Education is the foundation of all other educational endeavors. Planning for and meeting the needs of the child (spiritual, emotional, social, physical, and cognitive) is the basis of this program. Providing a warm, loving, and unconditional accepting atmosphere where children can feel safe, secure, loved, and accepted helps to create children who feel good about themselves and are able to love and accept others. When a child is able to feel good about himself, he will then accept new challenges, and tackle new skills whether they are academic, social, physical, or spiritual. Learning occurs in a happy, relaxed, and warm atmosphere through a variety of learning experiences.
