Our young people need to learn these skills more than ever as they transition into adulthood so that they may be independent self-sufficient members of our society. Our world is vastly changing where we have robots to vacuum, AI to think for us and the lists go on and on. This class aims to instill the following characteristics through activities designed around hands-on opportunities to develop and strengthen these everyday “real world” expectations. Students will be assigned projects weekly that will focus on the particular skill for that week. Here are some of the skills that this class will address: Focus and Self-Control. Perspective, Communication., Making Connections., Critical Thinking. Taking on Challenges. Self-Directed, Engaged Learning. Decision-Making. Health and Hygiene.Time Management.

This four-hour class is perfect for age 4 through lower level First Grade, and is based on learning through play. The curriculum will follow developmentally appropriate goals and objectives for children within four main categories of interest: social/emotional, physical, cognitive and language. The goal is to help promote independence, self-confidence and a love of learning. We will go outside everyday, maybe multiple times, even in the rain. We will explore, get dirty and go on adventures! I have a love of children’s literature that I hope to share with your children. Our literacy exploration will lead to learning the alphabet, letter sounds and even early reading. Math and science will be hands-on. We will learn that we can all be little scientists with fun, messy experiments! I am excited to create rich environments for learning, and forge strong home-school connections. It will be a GREAT year!
