How will the full-day kindergarten at my childs school differ from the half-day program at the same school?
The main difference should strictly be in the amount of class time offered. It is likely that both options will provide the same curriculum and style of instruction. In a longer day setting, teachers develop a broader picture of the children’s developmental levels and individual needs that allows them to further tailor instruction. Check with your child’s specific school to learn more about the curriculum and daily schedules being offered.
