Program Description
Students will begin the day with an opening devotion and continue with the following classes:
Catechesis & Recitation – This class will focus on learning and reviewing hymns, psalms, Bible verses, and Catechism selections. Using music and repetition, students will also memorize facts related to other academic subject areas, such as geography, American history, and poetry, etc.
Phonics/Spelling/Cursive – Students will learn and practice proper penmanship and New American cursive through copy work selections. They will be using the Memoria Press (MP) curriculum for phonics and spelling.
Important - Students must be able to read at a first grade level or higher in order to enroll for classes. All first and second grade applicants will be given a reading assessment in order to determine their reading ability prior to acceptance into the program.
History/Geography – Using the Veritas Press history curriculum, students will pursue a chronological study of world history with a focus on early American history from the time of the explorers until the year 1815. Students will use colorful and informative history cards to learn about 32 different events from this period of history, as they continually review a timeline memory song about the events. Additionally, students will read supplemental books, complete fun projects, and make use of a timeline and maps of the region.
At the Grammar Level, there is a great emphasis on memorizing names, dates, places, and events, which will help students gain a valuable tool for understanding how God is working today and what He has done during many past events.
Mathematics – The Simply Good and Beautiful Math Program is fun, engaging, and mathematically excellent. The curriculum is designed to cover four lessons per week. Two of these lessons will be taught during class time at Logos, while the other two lessons will be taught by the parent at home.
Students will need to take a math assessment over the summer in order to determine their grade level placement.
Literature – Students will develop their listening and comprehension skills through the reading and discussion of children’s classics.
Latin – Using the Song School Latin curriculum, students will learn Latin vocabulary in an enjoyable way with songs, illustrations, stories, games, and engaging activities appropriate for their level.
Students' class placement will depend on their ability level. Please speak with us before purchasing any curricula.
