Main Curriculum

Earth Science
In the science course, students will investigate the world around them through hands-on learning activities. Daily STEM experiments will challenge students to think critically, make predictions and problem solve as they explore Earth Science topics such as plant growth, photosynthesis, chromatography, the water cycle and water preservation. This fun and engaging course will help students draw connections to their daily life while collaborating with classmates and engaging in meaningful conversation about their observations. Students will be so excited to reenact or discuss these easy experiments at home while reviewing their science journal! Join us on week 1 for our plant study and week 2 for our lessons about the water cycle!

Art Program
In the art course, children will learn about the extension of Impressionism known as Post -Impressionism. Post-Impressionists applied bright colors and bold strokes, with a structured approach to elicit emotion and focus on subject feeling. Learners will explore the various subject matter and styles between well known Post-Impressionist artists. They will examine and discuss artwork, take virtual gallery tours, participate in fun interactive games and quizzes and practice the art movements techniques that Post-Impressionists have become well known for. Students will finish each lesson by applying Post Impressionism techniques to create their own custom artwork using a variety or art mediums.
