Course Description
Ah! To travel the world exploring the traditions and cultures of the world will be so exciting! Each week we’ll study a new location. We’ll color maps and sometimes build clay maps, learn the flags, hear the music, learn about tradition and special World Wonders. We’ll tuck all of our papers into our binders so that we’ll have a lovely scrapbook “Passport” at the end of our year of fun studies. Learning through crafts, games and more, we'll explore landforms throughout the world, and cultures. While there is no textbook, the library offers lots of books on different countries of the world, and this would be a great way to enrich those who thirst for more.
We will be tasting foods and treats specific to countries. It is very important that I have a list of food allergies to be aware of as I prepare.
*If you have a student with special needs, please contact the teacher directly to discuss how to best accommodate your child.
**All Life Adventures activities & classes require an annual family registration. Once you’ve registered your family, to enroll in a class, pay the $10 enrollment fee and in the notes tell us the name and age/grade of the child you are enrolling. 2nd semester sign-ups will need to re-enroll their child through this process. The teacher will contact you within one week of enrollment to give class details and be available for questions.
