Methodology

An optimal learning environment where
children are happy and thrive.

We understand:

• How the mind acquires new knowledge, and how kids learn and use information
• That learning through play is conducive for skills development and knowledge acquisition
• Students retain knowledge and develop habits of mind through practice

We use:

• Real-world contexts to provide relevance
• Hands-on construction/creation
• Application to real-world problems and open-ended questions
• Reflection to deepen learning and self-awareness

We build brick-by-brick:

• Focusing on each child’s growth as well as their contributions to the larger group
• Structuring lessons to build on each other and nurture engagement
• Recognizing and teaching to multiple intelligences, and modeling a growth mindset
• Activating motivation with positive reinforcement, personalized feedback, and gamification
