Desoto Elementary

Kindergarten

The Kindergarten classroom is a child-centered environment where phonics and hands-on learning are emphasized. Basic reading, math, science, and social studies skills are learned through group activities, speakers, videos, computers, and field trips. The students gain knowledge by song, as well. The days of the week, the months of the year, the letters of the alphabet, and the seasons are learned through original songs.

The most important relationship in schools is between the teacher and the parents. Therefore, the classroom has an open door policy. Parents are always welcome to come in and help with parties and special events, as well as coming in to observe. Fostering a child-centered environment where students are involved in active learning will enhance the necessary social and academic skills necessary to ensure a successful academic career.
