In addition, the children learn a new letter of the alphabet each week. They learn to read words by sight and by blending letter sounds. They also enjoy learning to count to 100, make patterns, tell time, add and subtract. The Kindergarten children are immersed in a hands-on learning experience that is fun, challenging, and stimulating.
