A Glimpse of TCS--Grammar Stage Learning


  
  

The youngest of the TCS students embark on their educational journey by exploring the world through a multi-disciplinary, literature-based curriculum. Mrs. Cameron's Pre-Kindergarten class enjoyed dressing her up in a Japanese kimono the week they read "A Pair of Red Clogs," the story of Mako, a little Japanese girl who so longed for a pair of shiny, red clogs that she almost did something dishonest to get them.


  

 The Kindergarten students in Mrs. French's class are developing math skills with manipulatives.  They make numbers out of Play-Doh and Wikki Stix, trace their hands to learn the “Give me five!” classroom rules, and trace letters in shaving cream. A love for quality children's literature is fostered by reading aloud Charlotte's Web, integrating the book with science by learning about spiders!
 

TCS First graders sit in rapt attention as Mrs. Jackson shares the biblical story of Jacob and Esau. First graders study Ancient History and can tell you that Khufu built the Great Pyramid at Giza! They are working hard on their phonograms and proper handwriting techniques. They have many opportunities to display their creativity through classroom projects. 

 

 Mrs. Ferguson holds up a model moon to her Second Grade class. Besides learning about the rotation and revolution of heavenly bodies, they also started the year off with multi-letter phonograms and poetry memorization
 
 

 Mrs. Hall is leading the Third Graders in an oral reading of "The Captive Princess," a historical fiction novel about the life of young Pocahontas, as they learn about the roots of our country. They can also tell you why hydrogen does not have a neutron and what an interrogative statement is!
 

Fourth Grade
is a great time for friendships and learning! These boys are working cooperatively in class, sharing their knowledge about subjects like science, modern history, and great classic literature like Call of the Wild.
 
  

Mrs. Meyer's Fifth Grade class sings a hymn at Morning Assembly. In fifth grade, the students are learning discernment as they apply their faith to real-life sticky situations. They have their plate full with Physics, Latin, and challenging writing assignments.
  

Trinity Classical School offers several after-school electives: Greek, Latin, and Fine Arts. Here in Dr. Scholl's Kindergarten Fine Arts Sampler, students are emulating the artwork of abstract impressionist Mark Rothko.
  

Every on-campus day includes Physical Fitness on the playground or in the gym. The girls are demonstrating their strength and skills in a rousing game of dodgeball!

 

Morning Assembly
is a time before every on-campus school day when all TCS students gather to recite Scripture, sing a hymn, and participate (actively!) in the Bible Truths Sound-Off. Students started off the year learning to sing Holy, Holy, Holy and memorizing Colossians 1:15-23.
