Art with Ms. Kim
Weekly Class Time, Threes-Kindergarten
Art is one of the most significant and culturally consistent ways people show how they view the world. Art education encourages the ability to value one's creative efforts and the creativity of others. At All Saints School, children learn the elements of art through a variety of projects. They develop confidence in using art materials and methods, and they learn pertinent art vocabulary from viewing artworks and learning about the artists who created them.
Music with Ms. Jennifer
Weekly Class Time, Infants-Kindergarten
Music engages every part of the brain. Music classes at All Saints are so much more than singing; the children are participating in creative movement, sequencing, counting, pitch exploration and matching and storytelling. Additionally, gross and fine motor coordination and self-regulation skills are reinforced through musical games. The children are exposed to classic children's music, as well as folk, holiday and chapel songs.
Outdoor Classroom with Ms. Shari
Weekly Class Time, Young Ones-Kindergarten
There are many benefits to exploring the world outdoors. Connecting with nature enables children to develop a love for it and to respect it; it develops a variety of gross/fine motor, social, language and cognitive skills; it’s liberating; it fosters better health. A child (adults too) who plays outdoors will have better cognitive function, more self-discipline and impulse control and greater resilience in response to stressful life events. The best gifts we can give a child are the space, time and opportunity to move, explore and create, and Outdoor Classroom offers just that!
STEM Lab with Ms. Gena
Weekly Class Time, Kindergarten
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. During STEM Lab each week, our Kindergarteners will have an active role as real life scientists, engineers, and mathematicians. STEM allows us to provide children with real world challenges, experiments, and authentic learning experiences. We will engage in team building challenges and group activities that will encourage critical thinking, problem solving, and executive functioning skills. Participating in STEM activities at an early age through inquiry, curiosity, and play helps to foster early math skills as well as crucial life skills, such as creativity, grit, collaboration, and more!
Yoga with Ms. Karen
Pre-K: Monthly Class Time
Kindergarten: Weekly Class Time
Children come into this world as natural yogis. Yoga enhances a child's flexibility, coordination, strength and body awareness. Our children live in a busy world with constant stimulation, and yoga helps them establish relaxation techniques, create inner contentment and build self-esteem. Yoga at All Saints includes poses, games, songs, Bible verses and the practice of calm breathing.
