SUMMARY:Homeschool I: Making and Tinkering a Better Future
DESCRIPTION:In this fall’s Homeschool I class we will be exploring how we create and tinker with the world around us. We will learn by playing with pendulums\, marble runs\, circuit boards\, and more.

This class will also have time built in for free play\, journal time and organized games. \nWith Monya Relles\nGrades 1-3\, Ages 6-8\nTuesdays 10:00am -2:00 pm\nSeptember 14 -December 7 (No program Sept 28\, Oct 19\, and Nov 23 for Discovery Days)\nTier A:$728 | Tier B:$582 | Tier C:$437 | Tier D:$292\nLimited to 12 participants (if over enrolled\, we may open a second class on Thursdays)
