Elementary - "Help me to understand why?... why?... why?"
Extended Day: 8:00 am - 3:00 pm • All Day: 7:00 am –
6:00 pm
Elementary children, typically, can be characterised by their questioning minds, their ability to abstract and imagine, their moral and social orientation and their unlimited energy for research and exploration. They move from the concrete through their own efforts and discovery to the abstract - thus greatly expanding their field of knowledge (source - AMI).
Children ages 6 to 12 years (1st - 6th graders) want to transcend the concrete and
use their imaginations - a very powerful tool
of learning. Students at this age begin to question deeper the
world around them, focusing greatly on nature and society.
Language, mathematics, geometry, sciences, geography, history, government, sociology, music, art and field trips are all part of the curriculum. Children learn adequate study habits such as record keeping, time
management and taking responsibility for their behavior and studies. Students also participate in various community service projects
throughout the year.
Our elementary curriculum conforms to State guidelines for
each grade level. |
