4-6 Core Curriculum

Students develop and refine independent organizational skills to support their education. They also continue to take ownership of their learning, as they take advantage of more leadership opportunities.
Our program has been carefully designed to advance learning, while growing individual student interests.
The entire academic program is enriching and challenging; designed to build strong foundations in communication, critical thinking, and problem solving. Students use technology to facilitate their forming organizational and study habits within the context of each subject matter.
Literature In the Upper Elementary, students are reading to learn as they continue to acquire new vocabulary and to develop fluency. They participate in literature circles, book clubs and whole class novel discussions. The emphasis is on reading comprehension skills, story understanding and critical thinking skills. |
