WHAT IS KINDERGARTEN HEROES™?
Kindergarten Heroes™ is a fun, exciting and purposeful SEL-integrated curriculum for children aged 5-6. The goal of this program is to develop Kids Who Can, Kids Who Care, and Kids Who Contribute. Each week is themed around a character trait of the week, a real-life "hero" of the week, and a sub-theme related to the hero. Each week, you and your students will encounter opportunities for fascinating conversations as you explore and wonder about interesting people, their incredible lives, and what we can learn from those lives...all while covering the key standards for math, literacy, and more. Prepare to be motivated and inspired as you learn right along with your students as you study, discuss, and evolve together as a class community!
