Come and fall in love with the beauty and fun of ballet. Through engaging teaching, games, and music we will learn the fundamentals of ballet. This is a year long class and students will be asked to commit to attending for the entire year. Dancers will have the opportunity to share some of what they’ve learned at an informal Winter Showcase on December 6th or 7th and a dance at our Spring Dance Show. The Spring Show is scheduled for the weekend of May 20th and 21st at 6:00 PM, with more details to come at the mandatory parent meeting in the fall. Students taking multiple classes (or siblings) receive 25% off their second class taken with the same instructor. Fees may be paid monthly or by semester. Costume fees for the Spring Show are due at Spring registration. (Estimated $25 to rent.) Ballet attire is required to attend class (pink tights, leotard, and ballet slippers) as well as hair pulled back in a bun. We look forward to enjoying the basics of ballet through barre work, stretching, and floor exercises. Students are encouraged to stretch and practice what they learn in class at home a few minutes each day.

We'll play games, make crafts, watch short video clips, and even interact with some furry (and not so furry) pets. Throughout the course we will be creating and collecting mini books and students will construct a lapbook of their own on the last day of class to take home. Students will also have the opportunity to "borrow" a hamster and practice for a week if pre-approved by the parent. Some pets we will discover besides cats & dogs include rodents, reptiles, insects, fish and birds.

Marine Biology With Salt Water Fish Tank
Ages 12yr-18yr
Nancy Hill
Fall 2021
Science
Schedule:
Description:
Do you feel drawn to the ocean with fascination for the creatures that inhabit it? Join me as we study the basic chemistry and building blocks of life, marine plants and animals, and the ecosystems of the sea. We will also study these things up close and personal as we start up the Center's huge saltwater fish tank. This is the first half of a two-semester course. While we will be reading a high school level science book, this course is appropriate for upper middle school students as well as high school, and is equivalent to one science credit (if both semesters are completed.) Each student will be required to acquire and keep a loose leaf lab notebook and will be graded on the contents of that notebook. The required text for this class is Apologia's "Exploring Creation with Marine Biology." Please bring both the textbook and the lab notebook to each class each week. Daily reading assignments from the required text, worksheets and tests will be done at home while class time will be devoted to lab experiments, microscopic study, observation and documentation. An average of 5 hours of homework expected each week, but middle school students will be offered a modified homework schedule.
**This class is only 15 weeks long this term as the teacher will be out of town the second week of class. Admin and teacher fees have been adjusted.

Schedule:
Description:
"Teach children to view the world as a magical place, to see the ordinary as extraordinary, and you will empower them to discover awe and wonder in everything they do," unknown author. One of my greatest desires when I was teaching preschool and now as a homeschool mom is that as my children and I learn together our hearts will be full of more and more wonder. My hope is that in this learning playgroup children aren't even aware they are "learning" and are most aware of how much fun they are having. We will sing, dance, read stories, explore topics of their interest, play, play, and play. There will be a structure that consists of time spent at circle time, creation time, free play time, snack time, and story time. I will incorporate literacy, math, aspects of God's character and how He relates to them, social-emotional skills, and all while having fun and playing.
