PRACTICAL LIFE
SENSORIAL 

Sensorial is all about engaging the entire body in education. Smelling, tasting, touching, seeing, and hearing allows the child to make long-lasting connections and is the key to strong retention of information.   

Practical Life is learning how to use everyday things, from pouring a glass of water to tying our shoes.  This complements all other lessons and aids the child in being a more productive member of the classroom, at home, and beyond.     

Mathematics is more artistry than monotany in this program.  The student will learn to identify numbers and what they truly represent with strong visual examples, getting children to stop counting with fingers and start counting in their minds. Students will learn to add, subtract, count to 100, and beyond. 

Language Arts is learning how to correctly use and identify letters.  Through phonetics and linking pictures with words, the students learn how to sound out letters to make words. More advanced lessons engage the child in reading and writing full sentences.
