Kindergarten at Trinity Classical Academy
In the kindergarten classroom, this is the beginning of the Grammar Stage, where children will begin to memorize and repeat foundational facts across subjects, and begin absorbing facts and memorizing them to prepare themselves for continued success through the Grammar School (1st through 5th grade).
Kindergarten students will spend their school days immersed in the Bible, math, reading, and history.
Bible Through the academic year, students will learn the overview of Scripture, with a focus on major stories and events in the Old Testament. These lessons will allow children to become familiar with God’s Word, in an age-appropriate way.
Math Our math approach is concept-oriented, which is a discipline that builds on prior mastery of mathematical facts. We will utilize the Saxon Math 1 curriculum, using the three steps forward, two steps back approach. This is the ideal way to master math for young students, as they build a foundation of mastery that will pay dividends in later school years and beyond.
Reading Learning to read may be the most important educational accomplishment for a student. As each student walks through the Veritas Phonics Museum, they will learn to read and do so with confidence. This also includes the beginning of handwriting mastery.
History The study of history in Kindergarten will lay the groundwork for future years of study. Through the academic year, students will learn to understand timelines, geography, their own history, church history, and more.
