Going to Kindergarten Club
Now the DoodleCharms IV class
 We build 'Mat Man' and all letters |  Then we draw and write! |
Who: for rising kindergarten kids (ages 4.5-5.5). Class is limited to 9 children. Children must meet requirements on our “who attends” page. The club is targeted at gifted learners who are academically ready for a kindergarten leveled challenges.
What: Club is a fun and unique way to enrich child's skills and interest in fine motor and handwriting prior to the kindergarten year. We work on fundamental motor skills as well as advanced handwriting skills to optimize preparation for kindergarten. This is also a great way to extend a child's preschool day to prepare them for kindergarten. Club is led by occupational therapist and has a 3:1 student to teacher ratio.
When: Clubs meet once a week for one hour. Club is a drop off class (these are big kids now!).
How much: $39 per week, plus $10 workbook fee
Skills addressed: proper pencil/crayon grasp, gross motor coordination, fine motor coordination, refinement of scissor use, formal handwriting program (“Handwriting Without Tears”—homework in book each week), coloring in the lines, recognition of letters (UC/LC) and numbers, building and writing letters, numbers and name, zipping, steps for tying shoes (insert parent cheers!), managing book bag, social games, turn taking, confidence building, fine motor skills interest /motivation building, drawing people, and increasing fine motor interest. Skills are taught by arts and crafts activities that are sensory based in order to increase fun and attention!
Is my child right for this class?: If your child is going to be entering kindergarten this Fall then this class will help them refine those developmental skills needed for kindergarten fine motor success.
