Rationale

Many kindergarten children (5-6 years old) scheduled to start school the following year are not sufficiently prepared. They lack the necessary gross and fine motor skills, pre-reading abilities, number recognition, as well as the skills to cope with emotional/social demands. Their parents may be unable to offer the support and assistance the children need, thus leading to a growing gap between these children and their more advantaged peers. The project includes weekly sessions designed to prepare the children for first grade, thereby reducing the school readiness gap and giving them a better chance for academic success.

Objectives

Improve children's school readiness, preparing them for first grade both emotionally and educationally.
