Claritas Classical Memory Program
Young children are like sponges. They are constantly soaking up all sorts of information around them. They quickly memorize songs and jingles and ask lots of questions about how things work and why things happen. This natural curiosity about the world around them and ability to soak up information aligns perfectly with the classical model of education. This kindergarten class will use the Claritas Memory Work Guide/CrossSeven material Cycle 3 as its foundation. The Memory Work Guide/CrossSeven covers 28 separate grammar pegs for the following subjects: Hymns, Scripture, English Grammar, Latin, Math, History, Geography, Timeline, and Science. Along with the Claritas memory work, Phonics/Reading, Math, and Nature Study will also be taught. Students will have assignments to complete at home on the non-class days.
​
Parent involvement at home is required.
***Parents must attend a Claritas Parent Meeting which will be held at the beginning of August. Please reach out to Julie Cox (bjcoxfam@sbcglobal.net) for meeting times and locations.
Teacher: Kristin White
