Focusing on Kinder
I am really excited about the new Kindergarten workshops! They allow me to have deep conversations about grade level specific routines, strategies, workstations, activities, books and assessments. We will have content centered discussions and work through a series of activities specifically aligned to the South Carolina Math standards that show you how to build understanding from the concrete level, through the pictorial and then the abstract. You will be continually engaged and leave excited and empowered. The workshop is fast-paced, fun and full of ideas! I hope you will join us for what promises to be an absolutely amazing experience!
Sincerely,
Dr. Nicki

Kindergarten is the most important grade.
Research shows that if we can catch them in kindergarten, we can prevent math difficulties in later grades. One of the biggest recommendations for student achievement is to start interventions when they are young!
