Grammar Stage

• Delight in exploring God's world

• Master fundamentals across subjects

• Build habits of attention and memory

This stage of curriculum is thoughtfully curated with intention. During a student's years in the grammar school, teachers cultivate his or her innate sense of wonder, inquisitiveness, and ability to absorb the foundational building blocks of a subject. It is the acquisition stage of learning where questions of who, what, and when are explored. In this first stage, students master such fundamentals as arithmetic tables, scientific formulas, biblical narratives, Latin paradigms, and cultural histories from Mesopotamia to our own time.
