Elementary school introduces
students to a "Cosmic Curriculum", an integrated
approach to human relations through language, math, science,
social studies, art,
and music.
It places an emphasis on learning the valuable
life skills of research, critical thinking, decision making
and problem solving, and in doing so moves children from concrete
to abstract learning.
This approach fosters competency and mastery
of skills through repetitive, successful experience while
minimizing failure, and develops social awareness on local
and global levels. The intent is to create a miniature community
in the classroom where children are responsible for their
own behavior and learn to observe the school rules necessary
for a peaceful and harmonious coexistence.
Elementary school enrichment activities include
Spanish, computers, music, art, yoga, physical education
and creative movement. |
