Personalized lessons that meet students where they are as young mathematicians, and bring them towards target grade level standards. Activity-based learning that enhances basic math skills and fundamentals at the students’ level.
Science: Focus will be placed on climate, sustainability, conservation, and projects to support a greener world for the future. Our teachers strive to make subjects globally relevant, helping students become responsible members of their community.
Gardening: Where Does Food Come From?
The importance of sustainable gardening is combined with math calculations, climate studies and diversity.
Social Studies:Where in the World? Map reading, geography, and history are intertwined with literature. Our focus this year is placed on exploring U.S. History for our lower-school and Ancient Civilizations in upper-school.
Movement: Exercise classes
Yoga and outdoor free time are part of the day. Students are also taught mindfulness practices and various breathing techniques.
Language Arts: Literacy and Writing
We offer a writing lab and choose 5-6 novels to study over the course of the year. Our Language Arts/Writing classes are strongly rooted in grammar and writing structure skills. Expressive writing and communication skills are exercised on a daily basis. All classes are appropriate to the students’ skill level.
