First Graders transition from Kindergarten with the help of stories. Socially and emotionally, these stories speak of courage, honesty, and goodness, the traits of a good student. Oral story telling also introduces phonics and writing as well as math. First Graders experience natural sciences, foreign language, handwork, music, and art as they move throughout their curriculum.

“As they leave the dreamy mood of Kindergarten, First Graders begin to awaken to the world around them. They are ready to learn in a new way.”
