Kindergarten
Early reading, foundational mathematics, scientific discovery and an introduction to families, communities and the world.
Explore Kindergarten →OpenBook Homeschooling is being built as a complete learning journey from Kindergarten through Grade 12. We are beginning at the foundation and growing upward—carefully, deliberately and one grade at a time.
Our goal is a connected K–12 curriculum in which each grade builds upon the knowledge and skills developed in the grade before it. Kindergarten is the first curriculum being developed.
Early reading, foundational mathematics, scientific discovery and an introduction to families, communities and the world.
Explore Kindergarten →Building reading fluency, writing, number skills and a growing understanding of the natural and social world.
Expanding reading comprehension, mathematical reasoning, observation, communication and independent learning.
Strengthening literacy, multiplication foundations, scientific thinking, geography and historical awareness.
Developing stronger writing, mathematics, research skills and deeper exploration of science and social studies.
Preparing students for increasingly independent learning and the transition into middle-school-level studies.
Advancing academic reading, writing, mathematics and subject-specific investigation.
Strengthening analysis, problem solving, research and increasingly complex academic skills.
Building the academic foundation and independent study habits students will need as they enter high school.
Beginning high-school-level coursework with greater depth, responsibility and subject specialization.
Expanding analytical thinking, communication, mathematics, science and broader academic knowledge.
Advanced coursework designed to support strong reasoning, independent study and preparation for life after high school.
The final stage of the OpenBook K–12 roadmap, focused on completing high-school learning and preparing for what comes next.
A Kindergarten student and a high school student should not experience school in the same way. OpenBook's long-term design allows the style, depth and independence of learning to grow along with the student.
Short, welcoming lessons introduce foundational academic skills while encouraging curiosity, confidence and a positive relationship with learning.
Students build strong literacy, mathematics and general knowledge while gradually developing independence and stronger study habits.
Subjects become deeper and more specialized as students strengthen reasoning, research, writing and independent problem-solving skills.
Coursework becomes increasingly rigorous while helping students prepare for their individual goals after completing their secondary education.
Before we build twelve more grades, we begin by getting the foundation right.
OpenBook Kindergarten is being designed as a complete starting point for young learners, bringing four core learning areas into one organized homeschool experience.
A K–12 curriculum is enormous. OpenBook's approach is to build a strong foundation first and then expand deliberately rather than filling the site with unfinished material.
As each new grade is developed, its curriculum can build naturally upon the knowledge and skills students learned previously.
OpenBook Homeschooling is being developed progressively. Kindergarten is the first grade in the OpenBook roadmap. Grades marked "Planned" represent our intended direction and should not be interpreted as currently available curriculum. Availability will be updated as each grade is completed and released.
For OpenBook, that chapter is Kindergarten. See how we're beginning the journey toward a complete K–12 homeschool learning experience.
