- Lower School
Students in Grade 1 have spent the past several months diving into a geography unit in which they studied maps, globes, and cardinal directions. Along with this learning, they read books and had discussions about how they, themselves, fit into the larger world. As a culmination to this unit, each student chose a specific location or geographical topic and learned all they could about it! By reading books and watching videos, they collected findings on their newly acquired knowledge. They summarized what they learned into research notes and ultimately created a plan to bring their project to life. Students chose to create books, dioramas, board games, and more. We are so proud of the creativity and hard work that the Grade 1 learners put into their first research project!
