Elementary Adds Ftooms One of the things that we decided as a staff is that we always won- dered what grade was it that I was required to tie my shoes, learn the multiplication tables, or write cur- sive. Therefore, we wanted to inform our readers and also record for the young people some of the things that they are expected to learn at each grade level. Do you remember when you had to? Kindergarten The kindergarten students are the youngest and the smallest on our growing ladder. The class is divided into two sections. There are 20 students in one section and 20 in the other They attend school all day every other day These little chicks are expected to know some things before they ever begin school. The children should know their address, phone number, birthday and chores like tying their shoes and going to the bathroom by themselves. Here at school, they learn about their envi- ronment. They learn to explain social and occupational roles of family and community members. They must learn about themselves and become little people. Some of the skills that kindergarten students learn are: to name the eight basic colors, to identify sounds, to count to 50 and to recog- nize basic shapes, They also learn the alpha- bet and how to write their name. Kindergarten activities are aimed to develop the following kinds ot skills: self-help, motor, social, language, and understanding con- cepts. By the end of the kindergarten year, all of these young people have come out of their shells. . fs-ae. , i t l 2 i ,Q-3 4 -TQ .

FIRST Upon entering the first grade the children have grown a few inches, have lost some of their front teeth, and have learned school routines.
