    Ready For Kindergarten

    Hello,

    I am just wondering what is kindergarten ready? I mean, when we have preschoolers in our day cares what should they know by the time they enter kindergarten?

        There are school standards and indicators listed online concerning what kids need to know. I will see if I can find them and post- I'm on my mobile right now so I can't now.

            I teach a preschool prgoram here at my DC and one of the things that i was told by a kinder teacher was to really work on their self help skills, sitting at a desk, waiting to take turns, waiting and listening to take directions, and complete bathroom management, (no help at in the bathroom)

              So I'm thinking ahead to next Fall/year and maybe adding something simple to our curriculum for my soon-to-be-kinders. I have 4 girls (2 of which are my own) that will be starting kindergarten in the Fall of 2012 (and ironically enough will all be going to the same school). I'm just wondering if any of you offer or do
