Welcome to Kindergarten

Welcome as a new Explorer to Settlers Way Elementary. As a new Explorer, your children will spread their wings and explore the excitement of learning in kindergarten. This year students will experience a balanced literacy program that includes: phonemic awareness, oral language development, print concepts, read-alouds, shared and guided reading, and shared and interactive writing. In math, your child will use a vast number of manipulatives to learn basic math concepts including: geometric shapes, patterning, measurement, graphing, addition, subtraction, and problem solving. Our hands-on curriculum also incorporates science, health, social studies, physical education, music, art, and technology. We look forward to a great school year.
