list of words a child should know before entering kindergarden?
Favorite Answer
I think this question depends on state to state and town to town. You should call your child’s local public school where they will be attending kindergarten. Most schools have ‘the year before kindergarten’ workshops. In these workshops, they will tell you what your child “should” know or would be nice to know.
Most schools want children to know their first and last name. Also knowing their parents first name (sometimes last) is also helpful in case of an emergency.
Some parents teach their children their address and phone number (in case they take the bus to school).
The most important thing that a preschooler can learn is social skills. If they are comfortable around other people and is able to transition well..everything else will be taught in kindergarten. (My feeling).
Children are smarter then most people think. They are able to comprehend a lot of words. Mostly just from every day experiences.
Not many teachers, at least in NC, are expecting children to come in knowing words. If you want your child to be ahead of the games, practice letters and sounds and read a lot together.
the child will learn a lot of words in school, definitely.
He should now nothing else but his name….
