Kindergarten language arts topics
Examples of reading skills that kids work on in kindergarten include:
Phonemic Awareness – identifying, isolating, manipulating, adding, blending, categorizing and deleting phonemes (individual sounds) in spoken words.
Phonics - learning the alphabet, the concept of letters and words, consonant sounds and short and long vowel sounds.
Sight Words - recognizing and using kindergarten-level sight words (e.g. all, am , soon, he, we).
Vocabulary – recognizing and using kindergarten vocabulary words including question words (who, what, when, where, how, why).
Reading Comprehension – reading very short texts (e.g. 20-80 words), usually with sentences of 3-8 words that don't extend over a line. Texts typically have a very repetitive pattern and are supported by images. Comprehension questions focus on recalling facts from texts.
Writing - tracing and printing upper and lowercase letters.
