HOW WE LEARN

IMG_8132_edited.jpg

WE DON'T TEACH TO A GRADE.
WE TEACH THE CHILD IN FRONT OF US.

At Wagyumama Schoolhouse, learning is built around mastery,

not simply age or grade level.

 

Children move forward when they’re ready, get support when they need it,

and are challenged when they’re capable of more.

 

Because learning doesn’t only happen at a desk.

It happens through movement, conversation, responsibility, nature and real life.

STRONG FOUNDATIONS. 
REAL-WORLD LEARNING

Reading, writing and math build the foundation.
Students work at their individual level.
Supported where they need it and challenged when they're ready  for more. 
For there, learning moves beyond the desk through hands-on projects, nature, movement, real-life skills, questioning and creating.
Because  learning isn't something children simply complete. It's something they experience.

WHAT LEARNING LOOKS LIKE AT WAGYUMAMA SCHOOLHOUSE

FAITH AND CHARACTER

Each day begins with Morning Gathering -

the Pledge, prayer, Scripture and a character focus that sets the tone for the day.

Through our Four C’s -

Care, Commitment, Caution and Character.

Students learn how to lead, serve, take responsibility and treat others well.

READING + WRITING

Students are assessed and placed into a small Lit Lab group based on the skills they are ready to learn -

not simply their age or grade.

Through RLAC, phonics, literature studies and writing, students regroup as they grow and master new skills. 

PROJECT BASED LEARNING

History, science and character come together through shared quarterly themes.

Students research, investigate, build, test, create and present - with the depth of the work growing as they do.

RANCHFIT PE

Daily movement is part of our school day. Through RanchFit Kids, students build strength, coordination, confidence and teamwork while using movement to improve focus and prepare their bodies and minds for learning.

MATH

Using Math-U-See, students are assessed and placed at the mastery table that matches what they are ready to learn next.

In small groups, they build, they write and they say the concept, moving forward when they truly understand it.

ELECTIVES + RANCH DAY

Learning continues beyond the core school day through hands-on electives and Ranch Day experiences.

Students cook, build, explore,

care for animals, practice practical skills and spend meaningful time outdoors - learning through real work, responsibility and experience.
