We are looking forward to the coming Transition to Kindergarten year, which begins in September. We have alot of exciting learning activities planned. As we do each year, we will take a field trip to Candler Elementary to our partner kindergarten class. This helps the children see that the kindergarten classes are set up just like our classroom. They also see that there are alot more friends in kindergarten. This transition activity helps them adjust to the change from preschool to kindergarten. Over the school year we will partner with this kindergarten classroom and experience different aspects of kindergarten. We will visit the library, participate in special activities in the classroom, have recess, eat lunch in the cafeteria, tour the school and meet the different teachers and staff.
Toward the end of the school year we will talk about bus safety. We will tour a bus, take a ride and learn how to get on, off and ride on a bus.
Throughout the year we will write letters to our partner class so the children can ask questions to the other children and get answers from kindergarteners experiencing this new venture!
We look forward to preparing our TTK class for the next big step in their lives : Kindergarten!
