In the art class, students will explore a variety of different art mediums including watercolor paints, oil pastels, crayons, acrylic paints and colored pencils. They will learn different techniques and have fun creating various art projects. They will also be creating art for various holidays and some of the planned performances. Children are so naturally creative and we are excited to see what your children will create!
Come learn the beauty of this language where hand, face and body work together to get the message across.
A list of books will be provided to read at home and discuss in class with your friends. You can read with your eyes or your ears but be prepared to answer questions and talk about what you learned and how it applies to today’s world.
Singing is such a great way to express our creativity. In this class, students will learn how to recognize their part in a song, be taught the basics of reading music and learn how to sing along with a group whether you have a solo or are a part of the ensemble.
Come move your bodies! Learn how to balance and bend and flex your muscles in so many fun ways!
In our debate class, students will learn the fundamentals of structured arguments, including how to form a clear thesis, support ideas with evidence, and respectfully rebut opposing viewpoints. Students will explore basic logic and persuasive techniques while practicing public speaking and active listening. Through fun, age-appropriate topics and friendly debates, they’ll build confidence in expressing their opinions and thinking critically. The class will also emphasize skills such as teamwork, respectful dialogue, and effective communication which will help them throughout their lives.
In this class students will each create their own business from the ground up. They will create a simple business plan, a realistic budget, research expenses, sales prices and manufacturing processes, including labor costs. They will also get to experience branding and marketing. At the end of the year, they will have the opportunity to set up a market at the theater class performance in order to sell their products.
Taught by a Certified Management Accountant, students will be taught basic financial principles of how to balance a checking account, keep track of savings, how to save for large purchases, household budgeting and much more. They will each work with an assigned weekly income and expense lottery that they draw out of a hat (similar to the Game of Life) and have a better idea of how their parents hold it all together at the end of the year.
Improv is that most basic of skills - public speaking on two minutes notice! Okay, we do give them a topic and we teach them how to prepare for those moments when this comes up in real life and we have a ton of fun doing this. And our teacher is an award-winning storyteller with years of experience who makes it fun for everyone.
In our makerspace class, we will be exploring our creativity by making things out of all kinds of materials. We will use everything from paper, cardboard and tape to marble tracks and even LEGOS! Some weeks will be themed around seasons, holidays, etc. but others will be “free build” to really stretch our imaginations. We are very excited to see all the wonderful things that will be made in our space this year!
This music appreciation class takes students on a journey through American music by focusing on a different decade each week, beginning with the 1920s. In each class, students will learn about a key song, influential artist, and a popular dance move from that era, discovering how music both shaped and reflected social changes. At the end of the course, each student will complete a creative project highlighting their favorite decade, song or artist. This project encourages personal exploration and a deeper connection to American music history.
We will use VEX Go Robotics kits to build, code and race robots. This will help students understand mechanics and coding, some vital 21st century skills. One of the most important of the skills that will be taught is how to break a big task down into smaller, actionable steps. This helps to show students how to be successful in any situation they may find themselves in, while having fun in the process.
We run into science in everything we do, from cooking to reading to walking outdoors to watching a glorious sunset (or sunrise for you early morning types). In this class, we aim to show students that science can be fun and engaging even as we learn about different famous and/or infamous scientists. We will use cooking, designing, creative thinking and many other methods to create an engaging class full of scientific facts to help you end up with a well-rounded student.
Last year, many of our students expressed an interest in learning more advanced sewing skills than we were able to teach them in just a few weeks when sewing was combined with Theater Design. So we broke it out and gave it a whole separate class period! Please note that you will be required to provide your own sewing machine for this class.
For the more advanced students, Cindy (our resident professional artist) will be taking the journey from art basics and moving the students on towards professional level projects that will take multiple weeks to complete. Each project will require patience, practice and additional skills to complete.
What does “tech” include today? A little bit of everything. We will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of AI, computers, research and engineering. While this is not an engineering class, we will be using the engineering design process of Imagine, Research, Plan, Create, Test, Assess and Improve in all our projects. Projects will include things like website building, social media design and usage, computer safety and how to present our best selves online and in person. This class will require use of computers and/or mobile devices.
Students will learn the lines, songs and dances for a full length musical (Title is TBD as of now). The semester will end with performances on a stage (date is TBD but late April or early May 2027). Each week, students will learn new lines, new songs and new dance moves for this show.
There are so many more parts to theater than just getting up on stage and performing. Costumes, sets, props, lighting designs, projections, ads, programs - the list goes on. During this class, children will learn how to put together costumes, how to saw boards, how to hot glue props, how to design an ad, how to build a program, how to design a stage projection and so many more skills that go on behind the scenes.
