This class is designed for 3rd grade and returning 4th grade students.

Welcome to 3rd/4th Grade!
I believe kids learn best through play, and it is always my goal to provide a joyful, curious, child-led environment.
Hands on Learning every week
This year, we’ll explore the world of physics through hands-on projects, demonstrations, and STEAM challenges. Students will gain experience using the scientific method and even have the chance to design and carry out their own science fair-style experiments.
Art will also be a big part of our learning. We will do a good mix of messy process art, as well as practice honing some more technical art techniques. I plan to focus on some basics, so students will gain skills and confidence to support their creative endeavors. We will include a great many studies into our art explorations, such as history (with a focus on activism and change-makers!), literature, science, and journaling.
Throughout the year, we’ll also read a few novels together. As someone who is truly passionate about books, I aim to spark that same love of reading in students by exploring books that appeal to young readers.
