Science K brings science alive by providing students a combination of virtual lab investigations (with options for hands-on learning), interactive lessons that provide opportunities for inquiry, and an array of e-books that capture students’ attention and grow their interest in science.

The curriculum begins with an overview of what science is and who scientists are. Students then focus on plant and animal relationships and analyze the weather. In the last half of the course, students explore how the sun affects their world and explore the interactions between different forces.

This course calls for the following household materials, though they are optional, since digital versions of all labs are available:

• blanket
• composition book, notebook, or loose-leaf paper to use as a Science Notebook*
• crayons, markers, or colored pencils
• hat
• scissors
• toy car
• umbrella

*Students may choose to keep a digital Science Notebook.

Math K is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in mathematical concepts. Students master content through a combination of teacher-led instruction (either live or via embedded video within the course) and independent practice, both online and offline. Teacher-led instruction engages students using online resources, including virtual manipulatives, videos demonstrating concepts with physical manipulatives, and videos teaching concepts through song. During independent practice, students solve problems online, often working with virtual manipulatives, and offline in an activity book. The Math K curriculum begins with a heavy emphasis on numbers and counting, leading to an understanding of addition and subtraction. Throughout the Math K course, students also explore mathematical concepts found around them in the world, including clocks and calendars, position and patterns, subtilizing, shapes, measurable attributes, and money.

This course is a Project Based Learning course (PBL). This course is designed as an exploration of the arts, audio/video technology, and communications pathways.

American Sign Language 2 goes beyond introductory ASL signs. This course helps students form structured sentences and explores how expressions can enhance signs to have meaningful conversations. Students will learn to communicate in everyday situations while learning vocabulary for descriptions, directions, shopping, and dealing with emergency situations. Furthermore, the course will teach students about the Deaf Community, culture, and language. Students will learn about sequencing, transitions, future tenses, and will be able to tell a story, and ask questions. This course requires use of a camera (cell phone, table, or computer camera), screen capture software, and simple video editing software.
