Spring 2014

We have some exciting news for Spring Semester! We will be offering some fun new classes. First, in the nursery, our three year olds have been doing some fun activities beyond just free play, which we are hoping to keep up. The Kindergarten through second grade are going to be doing a sign language course instead of art class for the semester. The 3rd through 7th grade class will be doing recycled art and maybe a little robotics. All three of the classes will be doing a semester of music, and P.E.
Also, we would like to offer a class for teens this next semester. This would be a team study course. Students would spend several weeks designing and constructing projects, which would then compete for a title. The class would be during our normal co-op hours of 9:30 – 1:00 and would include a lunch break and a 45 min P.E. class as well.
If you are interested in this, or our any of our other co-op classes please let us know as soon as possible. Priority enrollment ends January 4th. Co-op runs from Jan 17th through April 15th . We have a two week “try it” policy, so let us know if you would like to plan a visit.

Service Project

These last two weeks of co-op, our kids got to do something really special. I had never been on any major service project before, so our Co-leader planned a really good one. The kids had the honor of making Christmas cards and learning Christmas carols to share with the service men and women at our local veterans hospital. It was amazing to see both the faces of the vets and the faces of the children light up as they greeted each other. All ages from one year old to 12 years old were able to greet a vet face to face and give them a card. I had no idea how such a simple thing on our part could have such a powerful impact on all of us. I am so thankful to the teachers that planned and facilitated this project. It was great! I hope we get to do it again next year!

Ending Our First Semester

I have posted almost nothing mid year about the co-op. It has been a really good first semester. Every week goes better than I think it will. Great friendships have formed between the kids. We've made some great projects, and learned some fun games. We've made many adjustments over the course of the semester, and find things going smoother all the time. We had far fewer teachers than originally expected, which required flexibility, but we worked through it. I am more excited than ever for this next semester and all the Ideas we have for it!
