Lower Elementary Blog

August 10, 2015

We have had an amazing first week of school! The children have such a wonderful energy and drive to get right into their work. The older children are being leaders and helping the younger ones adjust to the elementary classroom. We have a really sweet group of students this year, and I can already tell their personalities are going to compliment each other.

This week, we will start the Montessori Cosmic Curriculum with the First Great Lesson: The Beginning of the Universe and Earth. This lesson will involve several extensions over the next few weeks, including experiments with volcanoes, states of matter, and the water cycle. This main lesson will flow into all subjects, including math and language.

We are all excited for a fantastic year!
