Phonics, reading and writing should all be components of a kindergarten language arts curriculum. These areas are crucial in helping a child build important literacy and communication skills. It all begins with gaining a thorough understanding of each letter of the alphabet. From there, students will be able to put letters together in order to begin reading and writing.

This page provides information on the language arts concepts a kindergarten student should know, objectives in reading and writing, as well as an overview of the Time4Learning kindergarten language arts curriculum and how it can help your child build a strong language arts foundation.

What Language Arts Concepts Should a Kindergartener Know?

There are a number of kindergarten language arts concepts that a student should know. Being familiar with the alphabet and the sounds of each letter will help students gain an understanding of basic phonics skills, which will set the stage for learning to read and write.

Having phonological awareness will help students distinguish one letter sound from another. From there, phonemic awareness comes into play. This helps students recognize and differentiate initial sounds, and also create new words by replacing one letter with another.

Students in kindergarten should also have good listening skills. This will help them begin to build their vocabulary and comprehension skills even before they start reading. Check out Time4Learning’s kindergarten language arts scope and sequence as well as our kindergarten language arts lesson plans to find out how we can help your student master these crucial concepts, what’s included, and what you can expect your child to learn with our award-winning curriculum.
