Upper Elementary (Grades 4-6)

Mathematics: Upper Elementary students progress to more advanced topics including Pre-Algebra and Pre-Geometry. Lessons continue to use concrete materials but gradually move towards more abstract concepts. Key areas of focus include algebra, measurement, and graphing. Individual and small group assessments help tailor instruction to each student's needs, allowing them to advance at their own pace.

Science: In Upper Elementary, the science curriculum delves deeper into subjects like chemistry, physics, and zoology. Students participate in more complex experiments and research projects, both individually and in groups. This stage emphasizes a deeper understanding of scientific concepts and fosters critical thinking skills.

Language Arts: The Language Arts program in Upper Elementary continues to build on reading and writing skills with a focus on advanced grammar, vocabulary, and writing composition. Students work on sentence analysis, paragraph development, and various forms of writing, including research and creative writing projects.

History and Geography: Upper Elementary students explore more detailed topics in history and geography, such as the history of civilizations and political geography. Lessons include hands-on activities that help students understand the origins of the universe, ancient civilizations, and significant historical events.
