Grades One and Two

These grades provide the basic tools of learning in the key areas of reading, writing, and mathematics, and are enhanced by units of study and inquiry in the fields of science, history and geography. Key elements center on the development of habits of mind and spirit such as attentiveness, respect, responsibility, and reverence. Students will participate in art and music studies, as well as in nature studies. Teachers will "enliven" the minds of the children towards great literature by reading aloud to them from many living books relative to their course of study.
