Event Details
This class is held weekly on Mondays from 10:30am-12:30pm all semester long. For girls and boys of all ages 3 and up! The Class List with names/genders/ages of students registered up for these classes are found at the bottom.
A Unit Study is a type of curriculum that organizes all subjects around one topic. In this case, it's a unit study about the novel The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. We'll be reading a chapter each class, and using the Travel A Year in the Secret Garden book: making recipes, doing fun activities, and studying the characters of the book. At the end of the year, we'll be watching the movie at the park! If this sound like fun, we'd love to see you, and make new friends!

We'll be outside under a huge pavilion so prepare yourself for the day's weather. Bring enough water, bug spray, personal fans, cool clothing, etc. We meet in the rain, as the pavilion is huge and we stay dry.
