Join our 6th-grade learning pod for a full curriculum experience! Your child will have the unique opportunity to learn alongside a dedicated certified teacher and build lasting friendships with their classmates.

Classes will run from Monday to Friday each week, with additional support available before or after each session with Miss Sarah.

Each week, students will have one homework assignment per subject, due the following week before class. These assignments are designed to take no more than 30 minutes per subject, per week. If needed, Miss Sarah will be there to assist with homework 30 minutes before and after class.

Our curriculum covers all core subjects and includes special projects such as science experiments, social studies projects, and integrated writing activities. Students will also engage in group work using breakout rooms, facilitated by Miss Sarah.

We start each class with a 15 minutes morning meeting, allowing students to share updates, play educational games, and connect with their peers.

Throughout the class, students will participate in breakout room activities, where they will learn new skills and collaborate in small groups under Miss Sarah's supervision. Miss Sarah will also be available for one-on-one assistance during the main session or upon request in the breakout rooms. Together, we'll tackle challenges and celebrate successes!
