This program interrelates concepts of science with the elements and language of movement: time, space, level, weight and shape, to explore the world around us. Through a series of movement activities and games we will discover the ways that concepts such as weather, environmental changes; simple machines; planets; and animals can be expressed and better understood through interactive structures and problem solving. The programs are custom designed to enhance and expand the student"s academic, social and personal growth. Students will then explore ideas as a whole group before breaking into smaller working groups. Next, they will continue the exploration and collaborative process to refine their work. The program will culminate in a sharing amongst the classes.
