The goal of Mat-Su Kinder Kick-Start is to help children prepare socially, emotionally, and academically for kindergarten. Children will develop both fine and gross motor skills through a variety of activities while fostering self-control, the ability to follow simple directions and a beginning understanding of personal responsibility, group, and individual cooperation. KinderKick-Start will encourage letter recognition, letter sounds, beginning phonics, number sense, rhymes, process and instructional art, early science, and social studies. Much of the discovery will be through creative hands-on activities, music, rhymes, and play-based learning.
This schedule may be subject to change. For information on last minute class cancellations due to weather or illness, please sign-up for the Kinder Kick-Start remind app. Note: Kinder Kickstart is located at MSC's satellite campus in Palmer (742 S. Alaska St.).
