Our elementary program focuses on hands-on activities that can range from simple crafts to building structures with various materials. Children are challenged to build, make, tape, cut, and play as they create their own awesome creations out of blocks, legos, cardboard, wood, fabric, or paper. Students also bring their own independent work to complete during our last 20 minutes of each day. It can be a book to read, math page to complete, or handwriting, whatever they can complete independently. At times we do forego this work time to play games together outside or play the classic "Heads Up 7-up" game together as a whole group K-8.
Our typical daily schedule:
9:30 - 9:40: arrive, free play and chat
9:40 - 10:00: clean up, K-8 announcements & sharing good things
10:00 - 10:45: read aloud and project time
10:45 - 11:10: bathroom and snack break
11:10 - 11:30: independent work time; pack up
11:30: See you next time!
