Kindergarten Readiness

Kindergarten Readiness

Pre-K students and Kindergarteners who need to level up in math, reading, and handwriting work one-to-one with Brightmont teachers to build their skills. We create a customized plan for each student: setting individualized goals, providing one-to-one instruction, and measuring outcomes. We believe in the success of your child.

Each personalized session includes exposure to both digital and physical learning experiences.


Instructors gear their sessions to meet the needs of the student’s readiness. Students will explore content through hands-on manipulatives and practice, reinforcing and reviewing content.

  • When do programs begin?

    All Brightmont programs are offered year-round. Students can enroll during the traditional school year as well as over the summer.  This program would highly benefit children scheduled to enter Kindergarten in the fall.

  • What is a multi-sensory curriculum?

    A multi-sensory curriculum encompasses visual, auditory and tactile learning to improve focus, visualization and retention. Conducive to all types of learners, a multi-sensory approach uses a range of activities to promote learning.

  • How does scheduling work?

    A campus director will discuss with you the best scheduling for your family's needs. We recommend students take 5 days of reading and alternating math and writing each day. This would create a balanced program of 10 days, 2 hours each day. Programs are flexible.

  • What would a sample day look like?

    In a single session, the lessons will be a rotation of activities (chunking). We recommend students take two sessions per day: one session focused on reading, and a second session focused on math or handwriting.

  • What is the Orton-Gillingham approach?

    The Orton-Gillingham approach is a multi-sensory way of teaching literacy to individuals who struggle with reading, writing and spelling. The curricular content and instructional practices used in the Orton-Gillingham approach are based on 80 years of research and validation. The Orton-Gillingham approach has shown significant success in a one teacher - one student instructional model.
