In kindergarten, students learn the foundational reading and English language
foundational reading arts skills that set them on the path to become lifelong readers, writers, and
and English language effective communicators. Reading is the most important skill that students develop
arts skills that set them during their early academic years, and kindergarten through grade three is the
on the path to become optimal period of time for such learning. The challenge for teachers is to organize
lifelong readers, and deliver effective, efficient instruction in the essential skills and concepts that
writers, and effective students must master. Instruction is differentiated to meet the wide range of
communicators. students’ abilities.
Standards-based instruction is critical to the kindergarten curriculum. Such
instruction develops students’ literacy and proficiency in English language arts. The standards describe what
students are expected to know and be able to do by the end of the school year. In 2010, California adopted new
standards in English language arts: the CCSS, with California additions. The CCSS integrate the strands of
English language arts: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language. The new standards will be
implemented gradually over the next several years as curriculum frameworks, instructional materials, and
assessments based on the CCSS are adopted.
There are many similarities between the CCSS and the 1997 California English language arts standards, but
there are some notable differences. For instance, in the CCSS, the standards in kindergarten through grade six
are divided into strands: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language. The 1997 California English
language arts standards are organized around domains: Reading, Writing, Written and Oral English Language
Conventions, and Listening and Speaking. The CCSS often extend or enhance the content of the 1997
California English language arts standards. For example, the CCSS focus more on informational text and
content-related vocabulary, opinion pieces, informative/explanatory writing, and collaborative conversations on
texts and grade-level topics.
This section provides an overview of the new CCSS for kindergarten English language arts. It includes a
review of the important English language arts skills and concepts students should have learned before entering
kindergarten (prerequisite skills) and guidance to ensure success for English learners. A complete list of the
kindergarten CCSS for English language arts, with California additions, can be found at the end of this section.
