[ABOUT THIS BOOK]
Many children feel overwhelmed when given a blank page and asked to create something original. Therefore, Kindergarten Creativity uses a gradual, step-by-step approach that provides more and more opportunities for spontaneous creativity as your child progresses. This approach allows your child to develop creativity without frustration.
Each activity gives your child an opportunity to copy an example or to work more independently, so your child can progress at his or her own pace. Plus, tracing activities help develop your child’s fine motor skills so he or she can draw creatively with confidence.
[THE AIMS AND PURPOSE OF THIS BOOK]
Kumon Thinking Skills Workbooks were developed in coordination with the Kumon Method, a learning system that has helped children master math and reading skills for over 50 years. Each workbook in the series offers engaging activities to promote the development of thinking skills that are crucial for a lifetime of success.
The goal of Kumon Method is to help children develop their abilities beyond their age and grade level. With Kumon, children begin working at a level that matches their abilities and progress at their own pace through a logical, step-by-step sequence of exercises, reviewing concepts as needed until they gain proficiency. The Kumon program starts with developing fine motor skills so that children can hold and use a pencil properly, followed by writing letters and numbers. Another way children can start developing their abilities is through practicing thinking skills such as understanding, interpreting, and applying information. Kumon Thinking Skills Workbooks are based on this second approach.
At Kumon, we believe in inspiring all children with a love of learning. That’s why we designed this series as a way to help children improve their thinking skills while having fun, rather than as an assessment tool. The sample images and responses in this book are examples only. They are primarily intended to provide guidance for children and parents. As your child gains confidence, he or she may begin to rely less and less on the sample images at the beginning of the activities. Offer praise for your child’s hard work even if he or she has trouble completing a task. This approach will help your child cultivate a positive attitude toward learning.
The skills addressed in this series were selected through consultation with teachers and analysis of a broad range of national and international educational resources, including the following:
• Common Core State Standards (CCSS)
• Bloom’s Taxonomy
• Program for International Student Assessment (PISA)
• Kumon Programs
• 80 Pages
• K & Up
