Product Description
With its comprehensive curriculum providing a sound basis in the fundamentals of math, art, history, language arts, science, and technology, the phenomenally successful Core Knowledge series has become an esteemed tool for parents and teachers striving to better educate today's children. And since it is agreed that the first years of schooling are crucial to a child's lifetime educational achievements, it is no wonder that parents and teachers alike have been asking for a volume for kindergartners.brbrbrbrThis primer for those just beginning their school careers was devised with the contributions of over 2,000 parents, educators and students, distilled into a user-friendly volume specifically designed for parents to use with their children. Eighty pages of four-color illustrations enliven the new, bold design of this latest title in a series adopted by hundreds of schools nationwide and appreciated by thousands of adults looking to instill in children a lifetime love of learning.

5 out of 5 stars Great book for teaching...   November 22, 2008
This is a great book for teaching all the things you remember learning as a child that is often left out of the current curriculum in today's schools. Plus its fun to read with you child. Besides it really just gives you a perfect time to sit down and have some one on one time with your number one fan. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars What your kindergardner needs to know   October 31, 2008
I really apreciated a text that had all the different subject ares for my little four year old son in one book. We read and discuss history, culture, music and we have done some of the science experiments. He loves the stories. We were in Germany this summer and had a chance to visit Bremen where we were introduce to the local foke tale " The Bremen street musicians" I purchased the book in german and my friend transulated it for us. This story was in the "What your kindergardner needs to know" book. I was impressed. I will definately purchase the nxt level.


5 out of 5 stars Great and Interesting   May 14, 2008
My children are 3 years and 20 months. This book has provided numerous, fun, learning opportunities for them. My redheaded 3 year old had a fun time when we discussed the section about Thomas Jefferson. She was thrilled to learn that he loved books (just as she does) and that he also had red hair just like her. The format of this book is great. It is divided into subjects that make it very easy for a parent to use with their children. Even though my children are young, they are still gleaning knowledge from this book when I use it in conjunction with "What Your Preschooler Needs To Know". I highly recommend this book.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent book   May 5, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchased this book so I can understand (in general) what my 4 year old needs to knows before Kindergarden. He currently goes to preschool but like most little kids he is hungry to learn more. I have been extremely happy with the book and its content. I agree with others that some of the stories are graphic and deal with death but it is my understanding that between year 4-6 kids are developing difference between good and evil. There are times that I pre read stories and edit them in mind prior to reading them to him. Overall excellent book and well worth every penny.


5 out of 5 stars What Your Kindergartener Needs to Know   April 28, 2008
This is a book that I would recommend that any parent get. It helps me teach my child what is needed to know at each grade level. Delivered on time, with no problems.
