  • Explorations: Thursday, 3:15 -4:15 pm
    The inherent sense of inquiry provides the foundation for our "Explorations" class each week. We will start each day with a specific topic and question, introduce scientific vocabulary during engaging activities which provide many opportunities for the children to problem solve and investigate.
  • Make Way to Literacy: Lunch Bunch: Monday, 11:30-12:45 pm
    Children will bring their lunch to school and eat it at GCNS. After lunch, children will engage in a variety of literacy experiences using books as springboards that provide opportunities for children to practice many literacy skills, special activities and author studies. Some of the activities will include: developing vocabulary and sentence structure, phonological awareness, letter knowledge.

Additional Class
The Children's Music Workshop With Fran Rissland:
This is a music workshop which Fran Rissland holds after class. The main goal of the worship is to develop music competence and to introduce a few of the great composers and some of their music in an atmosphere that is playful. This is not a duplication of their school music program.
