KINDERGARTEN (age 6-7+ )
Product Description
KINDERGARTEN
Islamic educational philosophy encourages the idea of postponing formal education until a child has reached the age of seven, or until the child is developmentally ready. Instead, we are instructed to let our children play. You may click here to read an interesting article about teaching children to read before they have reached the "reading readiness" age. Also, please visit our bookstore for more information about the concerns of beginning formal education too early.
The Kinza Academy Kindergarten Package Contains:
The package contains books on art and science experiments that can be used informally to enhance your own natural role as teacher to your children, and a selection of carefully chosen, mostly classic books by time-honored authors such as Lewis Caroll, Carlos Collodi, and Johnny Gruelle. Many of these books are bound in beautiful hardback editions to be passed on from child to child and perhaps even generation to generation.
By reading books of excellent quality to your children during the kindergarten years you will be indirectly helping them develop critical skills, including beginning familiarity with English grammar and vocabulary, listening skills, and development of the imagination. Through these books the child will also learn important lessons to help them build character, from courage and fortitude to honesty and integrity, all of which are perennial themes in these classic works of children’s literature. It is ideal to read to children about an hour a day and let them engage in plenty of unstructured play. The kindergarten program does not come with lesson plans.
For parents who wish to introduce formal teaching before first grade, we include a phonics book, Italic handwriting book, and a math project book. The kindergarten package has all of the material necessary to prepare your child for the first grade.
The kindergarten program is ideal for ages 5/6 and older. The curriculum is not published, so please feel free to call our office if you require more information about the specific books. The program may be purchased at any time during the school year and may continue to be read as the children get older.
