Kindergarten

Philosophy

Our motto of kindergarten at Bloomfield Christian School is “Nascantur In Admiratione” (Let them be born in wonder)!

All learning begins in wonder and our kindergarten program is designed to foster and cultivate the child’s innate sense of wonder and discovery in God’s creation.

It is no understatement to say that kindergarten is one of the most important years of a child’s education. In kindergarten, children begin to form habits that will serve them their entire lives. A positive kindergarten experience will shape a child’s attitude toward education for many years to come. We want our students to love learning their whole life!

Curriculum: Integrated and Fun

Our Kindergarten curriculum encompasses all aspects of learning including Bible and history, math facts, phonics, reading, spelling, music, and, of course, plenty of recess time to burn energy and play!

Beginning in Junior Kindergarten, students learn not only the basics of language—letter formation, phonics, etc.--but also how God has given us language as a means to know Him, 
worship Him, and communicate to one another. BCS students study spelling, writing 
mechanics, and grammar so that they may learn to communicate clearly and appreciate 
beautiful writing. 

Music curriculum helps to connect the world of sound to the student’s mind and develop fine motor skills, all while cultivating a love for beautiful music. 

For our math curriculum, students will progress through the Singapore math program which slowly builds a student’s understanding from concrete, manipulating objects to abstract mathematical concepts. Students will drill on fundamental “math facts” to make permanent, basic number theory.
