Miss Julia uses the Common Core Curricular Standards to structure her kindergarten class activities. She uses a wide variety of learning tools to focus on all of the children’s needs in the classroom. She is thereby able to help children work on spelling, handwriting, sentence structure, reading, and review so that the children are fully able to understand the letter of the week.
