Introduction to computational thinking and coding with Bluebots and Beebots in the classroom: CH 4 students eagerly greeted Ms. Sarah Rosenberg, Instructional Technology Specialist, to their classroom. They learned to program these little robots with a sequence of commands to perform certain functions. It was fun and engaging!

Tobin Snapshots
 


In Children's House 3, we have had a wonderful start of 2022 in the classroom. Our Montessori classroom has been busy with many activities in the Language, Math, Sensorial, Geography and other areas where the students can learn at their own pace, gain independence, self-esteem, and respect for others.
