JK - FIRST GRADE

A Nurturing Start to Academic Success

1871 Geary Rd, Walnut Creek, CA

Welcome To Our JK, Kindergarten & First Grade Campus!

At Sonder Creek Academy, our JK–First Grade programs are thoughtfully designed to build a strong foundation in both academics and personal growth. Our teachers create a safe, supportive environment where young learners gain the confidence to communicate, explore, and connect with others.

Building Skills Through Exploration

STEM and Art Integration
Students are introduced to science and engineering concepts while practicing self-expression through art activities.

 

Emotional and Social Growth
We encourage students to recognize their own emotional needs, develop empathy for others, and resolve conflicts with care and respect.

A Dynamic Approach to Literacy and Math

Whole-Class Learning
Teachers lead engaging activities like reading theme-based stories or playing games that strengthen letter-sound recognition.

 

Small Group Collaboration
Students gather in smaller groups to dive deeper into stories, brainstorm predictions, and discuss ideas together.

 

Individualized Instruction
One-on-one reading sessions help students progress at their own pace, gradually advancing to more challenging books as they build skills and confidence.

Enriching the Whole Child

Specialty Classes
Throughout the week, students enjoy a variety of enriching experiences including PE, Art, Spanish, and more.

We are currently accepting applications for both the current and following school years.
