Grades Two & ThreeBy combining our second and third grade students into a mixed age group, we are able to accommodate a variety of ability levels. It is common for children to progress at different rates in different academic areas. For example, a seven year old might read on a second grade level, but master third grade math. Mixed age groupings also allow for increased instructional time, by reducing the need for teachers and students to become re-acquainted during the autumn of the second year. Our second and third grade program focuses on using reading skills to research topics of interest and to share that knowledge through writing. The math program at this level continues to accelerate our students development of both advanced and basic skills. In our classrooms, we are able to provide instruction that is perfectly tailored to each child's needs, and to encourage students to make rapid and continuous progress in every area.
