Connections: Where Everything Comes Together
Each day, our students in grades 1–4 attend classes in multiple subjects, from Math to Mandarin to Music. Most classes are taught by a Subject Expert Teacher (SET), devoted to teaching the subject they know and love best. The Connections class, however, is taught by each class's Learning Expert Teacher (LET), who is devoted to that class and their individual learning. In Connections, each LET can pull together topics from the different classes taught by SETs to help students see the bigger picture of what they are learning, and to introduce different problem solving challenges to inspire students.
