A number of parents ask us frequently if our program supports curriculum for Kindergarten. The answer is mixed - Yes and No.
No - because, we do not formally have a grade in the drop-down (during enrollment) called "K" (or Grade K).
Yes - because, we support math problems under the topics Addition and Subtraction (one-digit addition and one-digit subtraction; and if your child is adventurous and a fast learner, similar to my 7-year old daughter, we have 2-digit additions and subtractions to keep them challenged).
So, whenever, we get this question, we recommend to parents that they choose "Grade 1" and focus their child on the topics Addition and Subtraction; and gradually introduce other topics. [This is typically how schools in India keep the young child engaged!]
That said, we are focusing some of our content development time in the first half of 2009 to formally introduce content for grade "K". We will keep you posted when the content is available for "K".
Personally, IMO has worked for my 7-year old when she was in "K" - and we are starting my almost 5 year old on IMO. I will keep you all posted on how the second one does - her challenge might be 'patience'!
