Motto: “When we learn what we love, we love learning.”
What: The Explorers Co-op is a K-12 unit study based homeschool enrichment program within the Eagle’s Nest Christian Home Educators’ Association.
Who: Any Eagle’s Nest family may register. Classes are open to K-12, with childcare/classes for infants, toddlers and pre-k siblings.
When: Beginning in the fall of 2009, we will meet three times a year, once a week for 6 weeks, for about 4 hours per day. Exact dates for 2009-2010 TBA.
Tuesdays 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. as follows:
Where: Royal Baptist Church
70 Mayo Royal Industrial Blvd
How much: $30/family registration fee. Class fees will range from $5-25 per child for each unit study.
Goals: We wish to honor God in an atmosphere of love, joy, friendship and learning for the children and the Moms (Dads welcome, too, of course!). In addition, Explorers will especially strive to be a place of encouragement for new homeschoolers and homeschoolers new to the area.
Format: The children will be divided up into class divisions or “Explorers Teams.”
All students K-12 will study the same unit, but at different levels. The Babies and Toddlers will be cared for in a nursery setting. Older toddlers and pre-schoolers will have games, activities and snacks provided for them. The Pre-k 3-4s will have age-appropriate lessons, but they will not necessarily relate to the unit study.
Subject coordinators will oversee each of the following subjects:
History/Geography Literature/Writing Science Art/Hands-on Project
The moms of the students will have the opportunity to teach and assist in the classes or assist with the pre-k team. When not needed in a classroom, moms will participate in “moms classes” which will include Bible studies, guest speakers, and learning opportunities.
We will end each unit study with a finale celebration.
