The early learning years are integral to a child’s overall academic and lifelong success, as we here at Shining Light Academy well know. Our faith-based kindergarten program is designed to help children develop a lifelong love of learning and help them learn the critical skills they need to be successful.

How Kindergarten Helps Develop Well-Rounded Children: Core Curriculum & Development Areas

We cover all of the core areas of a well-rounded curriculum for our kindergarten program, including:

  • Literacy & Language Development – Our program helps build a lasting foundation for reading and writing skills through storytelling, phonics practice, and language activities.
  • Mathematics & Numeracy – We thoughtfully introduce numbers, shapes, patterns, and other basic math concepts in a fun and engaging environment.
  • Science – Our students learn how to investigate the world around them, fostering a sense of curiosity and wonder at the majesty of God’s creation.
  • Social Studies – Making a positive impact on the world and having a strong sense of self starts with learning about the many communities, cultures, and traditions that make up our world.
  • Arts & Creativity – We aim to offer our students plenty of creative outlets where they can express themselves through music, drama, art, and movement.
  • Bible Teachings – Our Christian faith is at the heart of everything we do, so we incorporate biblical teachings into the daily lessons for our kindergarten students.
  • Spiritual Development – Under the guidance of our teachers and staff, who model exemplary Christian behaviors and practices, children in our kindergarten program can develop a strong sense of faith they can lean on for the rest of their lives.
