We make much use of Multiple Intelligences to help each student express freely in his or her best modes of learning.
Also, Junior Great Books are offered in grades 2 through six to discuss world literature. Teacher led discussion is used in grades 2 and 3. Higher grade students create their own thought provoking questions and games to display understanding. The goal is to discover classic, age appropriate works of literature as well as to gain public speaking techniques and critical thinking skills. Students gain confidence to express their thoughts in a creative way! EXTENSION Extension is a unique program developed for those who qualify for a more challenging "extension" of the curriculum. Eligibility is contingent upon strong standardized test results, report card grades, and teacher recommendation. Emphasis is placed up higher order thinking skills and cooperative learning.
