Description

Today we’re sharing a sneak-peek inside our Four Seasons Curriculum. Check out all the details and snag the year-long course at www.clapforclassics.com/fourseasons


Music


We start with one of our favorite songs from the winter course: Down with Darkness.


We have fun using flashlights and a drum while we learn this song.


Down with darkness, up with light


Up with sunshine, down with night


Each of us is one small light


But together we shine bright


Go away darkest blackest night


Go away -- give way to light


Art


For the winter course, Ms. Krisanne, our wonderful art teacher, introduces us to the artist Peter Bruegel and his wintry paintings.


STEM


The winter course is all about color! Dr. Rojas put together 4 stem labs that encourage curiosity, observation, and teach lots of scientific concepts in age-appropriate ways.


Poetry


Ms. Leslie and Ruby bring seasonal poetry to life. We share Charlotte’s favorite on the episode:


DECEMBER LEAVES by Kaye Starbird


The fallen leaves are cornflakes


That fill the lawn’s wide dish,


And night and noon


The wind’s a spoon


That stirs them with a swish.


The sky’s a silver sifter,


A-sifting white and slow,


That gently shakes


On crisp brown flakes


The sugar known as snow.
