Core Learning Areas

Social-Emotional Learning & Morning Meeting

Students begin each day with a community-building morning meeting to set goals, reflect on emotions, and prepare for learning. Activities promote resilience, positive relationships, and self-regulation through restorative practices and moments of genuine connection.

Social-Emotional Learning & Morning Meeting

Literacy & Communication

Through read-alouds, journaling, small-group reading, and writing workshops, students develop fluency, comprehension, and expressive skills. Learners explore multiple genres and present their work to peers and families through showcases.

Literacy & Communication

Math for Mastery

Students progress through a personalized, mastery-based math program that blends real-world problems, math talks, games, and tech tools. Peer collaboration and hands-on practice help build number sense, critical thinking, and confidence.

Math for Mastery

Science & Nature Inquiry

Using the 5E model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate), students explore science concepts through experiments, outdoor investigations, and cross-disciplinary projects. Curiosity is sparked through questions, exploration, and reflection.

Science & Nature Inquiry

History, Civics, and Social Studies

Learners examine the past and present through thematic units that connect to their community and the wider world. Activities include map-making, storytelling, and project-based learning focused on historical inquiry and civic engagement.

History, Civics, and Social Studies

Digital Literacy & Life Skills

Students gain confidence navigating the digital world by engaging in age-appropriate research, keyboarding, project planning, and safe online behavior. Tools such as calendars, Google tools, and beginner-friendly AI platforms are introduced.

Digital Literacy & Life Skills

Art, Movement, and Exploration

Daily time is devoted to creativity, physical activity, and open-ended exploration. Students engage in visual arts, maker time, drama, and movement games to support cognitive, emotional, and physical development.
