Study Units

The beginning of the year it is recommended that the first units of study be:

 • Getting to know each other in the classroom community

 • Everyone is an individual (“ I Am Special, No One Like Me”)

 • What it is to be a Family

 • “The Community” in which the children live

Choices throughout the year should be based on the children’s interest, season and events in the community.
