Core LearnersAGES: 3 - 7
Core Phase is a magical time of nurture and growth. The lessons of this phase are learned through work and play. Some of those lessons include right and wrong, good and bad, true and false, responsibility, and learning the value and love of work. In these classes we will read aloud books, play games, explore artwork and crafts, and move our bodies. Tools of math, history, art, science, and literature will be available for exploration. |

Love of LearnersAGES: 8 - 11
“During Love of Learning Phase, the best parents and teachers forget structured content and focus on whatever truly inspires the student. At the same time, they consistently put in the time. This accomplishes at least three things: 1. It helps the student and her mentors explore various fields of knowledge and skill and find her areas of passion and genius. 2. It keeps the student actively and constantly engaged in learning, because it emphasizes things she loves. 3. It allows parents and teachers to openly share their own learning passions and interests—which is incredibly inspiring to young people." The Love of Learning program provides weekly activity choices in math, history, geography, science, art, music, writing, and literature. Mentor-led activities based on classic books teach values and introduce children to heroes. Each parent will have the opportunity to teach a class. |
Rising ScholarsAGES: Girls and Boys ages 11-13
Students will learn, explore, and collaborate to discover principles of truth. This class is designed for budding scholars to bridge the gap between the heavy scholar workload and the love of learning phase. Each unit will explore principles as well as scholar skills with books, simulations, and hands-on activities. Some of the scholar skills we focus on are reading, math, logic speaking, writing, creativity, and time management. These are presented with projects and engaging activities to inspire the students to learn at their own pace to prepare for the scholar years ahead. Through both semesters, mentors will lead engaging book discussions in a variety of formats and at a pace that is perfect for these budding scholars. |
