    Students will travel through time from creation to modern day and explore how people lived, worked, discovered, and changed the world. This course will use maps, timelines, stories, art, and interactive hands-on projects to help us understand the past!

  • Art

    Our art will introduces students to the foundations of visual art in a fun, hands-on, and age-appropriate way. Students explore the elements of art, including line, shape, color, form, texture, and space, while building confidence in their creativity and self-expression.

  • Science

    Students will be exploring the science of God’s most amazing creation, the human body. This Anatomy and Physiology course will teach us how God created our bodies, the building blocks of a healthy lifestyle, how our cells work together to help us breathe, digest food, move, and much more.

  • Writing

    Students will learn the Structure and Style of writing. As they move through various themes and subjects, they incrementally introduce and review the models of structure and elements of style found in the Institute for Excellence in Writing’s “Teaching Writing: Structure and Style.” While incorporating dress-ups, decorations, vocabulary, and the mechanics into their writing, they will also learn basic public speaking skills.

Each class is structured to engage students in the beauty of the arts and nature, creating a well-rounded classical education.
