But it's the sta rt of b ig g e r things
What can you learn at kin­
dergarten’ After all. it’s Just
kid stuff
But kid stuff is important to
kids, especially when it comes
to education. At least at the
Sandy kinderschool, held at the
C o m m u n ity P re s b y te ria n
Church, learning is serious
business to the 3-year-olds
there.
T h e ir concentraton was
evident w hile they pasted
colored shapes on paper,
keeping in mind how “ square,”
“triangle” and “round" look.
When finished, they happily
curled up with favorite books
for a brief “reading” period on
the coxy area rug.
They practiced waiting with
incredible restraint as each of
three tables was dismissed In
turn for drinks of water.
Cooperating w ith others
made their circle game fun for
everyone, they found.
They were reluctantly quiet
at rest time, spent on mats
stretched out on the big rug, but
enjoyed listening to a record.
And they were eager to follow
directions from teacher Jan
Neuenfeldt when it came time
to play their “ musical in­
struments.” No one missed a
beat
I t ’s all hard work, but when
you’re five, work Is fun I t ’s
also for a good cause—getting
ready for the first grade next
year.
This could be the start of
something big!
W R ITIN G YOUR own name on the hack of your picture is
the finishing touch.
ir s important to stay, with the beat
when playing instruments
