Small class sizes:
Little Folks School understands how important student/teacher ratios are to a child’s success in school. In a large class setting, it is easy for a struggling child to get lost in the crowd and quietly slip through the cracks. With smaller class sizes, your child will get more individualized attention that he/she needs at this stage of development. It is our goal to see every student succeed and be fully prepared for first grade and beyond!
Full-Day program:
The Little Folks Kindergarten & First Grade Program runs five days a week from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. This program includes studies in Reading, Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Health, Art, Music, and Physical Education. In order to broaden our students’ experiences and learning outside the four walls of our school, we also frequently venture out into the community and surrounding areas for field trips to enhance our units of study.
Reading Curriculum:
Little Folks School is proud to offer Meet the Superkids and The Superkids Club Reading and Language Arts curriculum. “The Superkids Reading Program is a comprehensive reading and language arts curriculum with phonics at its core. As Superkids builds strong phonics and decoding skills, it simultaneously integrates instruction in comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency. The program also develops students’ skill in writing, spelling, grammar, usage, and mechanics. As a result, Superkids produces students who can read and spell accurately and fluently, readers who can comprehend an author’s ideas, and writers who can express their own ideas with confidence and precision.” (Rowland Reading Foundation, http://www.rowlandreading.org)
