Aug 2012 - May 2014
Corlears is a progressive, independent School that focuses on a child-centered approach to elementary education. The program and curriculum are specifically designed to be interdisciplinary, encouraging active, collaborative learning within a multi-aged environment. In my 2/3's classroom I collaborated with my co-teacher in all areas of classroom functioning: curriculum planning, classroom management, skill development in all areas, fine and large motor skills, separation and autonomy, socialization, language, pre-reading and math development. My final year I had been designing multi-sensory math activities for cultivating emerging number sense, one-to one correspondence and subatizing.
