Through the lens of cross-curriculum, children will research and investigate their interests.
Inspired by Reggio-Emilia and the constructivist model of education, children will discover their role models and inspirations through deep exploration of their dreams and interests. Technology will be used as a tool to deepen their research and understandings of abstract concepts connected to their interests. Components of Science and Math will be uncovered and integrated into their area of focus. Engineering will be utilized as children design and develop their own mechanisms to problem solve and build something from their interests. Arts will be included as students explore artistic representations, expressions, and designs of their dreams.
Dream AcadeME is a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program. This means students bring their own iPads, laptops, cameras, etc. when needed for learning and research.
Children will discover their role models and inspirations through research and exploration.
