Kindergarten Readiness

Kindergarten readiness refers to a child's preparedness to succeed in a structured educational environment. It encompasses various areas, including social-emotional skills (like sharing and cooperating), language development (such as vocabulary and communication), physical coordination (fine and gross motor skills), and basic cognitive abilities (counting, recognizing letters). A child who is ready for kindergarten can follow directions, interact positively with peers, express their needs, and demonstrate curiosity. This readiness helps ensure a smooth transition into formal schooling, supporting the child’s ability to learn and thrive in a classroom setting.
