Across the Curriculum Approach

The K8 PACE class has been busy strengthening each of our four academic areas. This year we are using a “develop across-the-curriculum approach.” This means that the students see, hear, and participate in a curriculum that fosters the language skills they are learning in all classes. For example, in language arts the students read stories pertaining to historical events which in turn helps support the social studies curriculum. The students are also completing hands-on projects that further enhance their learning. Recently, they made their own globes, using paper mache! The students learned quite a bit about the Earth’s continents and oceans.
