Degree
Kinder Ready is meant to create an opportunity for dialogue and participation between parents and their children. I want to call attention not just to the formal aspects of what their child needs to be prepared for school, but also to the fun, interactive every-day experiences that can be presented as learning opportunities.
Kinder Ready begins as a linear assessment test with the purpose of grasping your child's skill level in five different areas of study. This test is determined by which school district the use is zoned for based on their location when they open the app, thus making sure that it is catered to the exact needs of each child as determined by their future school. After completing the test, parents then have the opportunity browse through suggested activities, local activities, or search for something specific from the data-based of both user-submitted and sponsored activities.
User-submitted activities are just a small portion of the community that exists within Kinder Ready. Users can connect with each other online through the forums or through social networks to ask questions, connect with others, and see what their friends are doing. Through saving and attending local events found through the app, parents can also connect with eachother (as well as allow their children to socialize) in-person. Building strong connections before even starting school can help parents and their children ease into the school life once they reach it.
