Yes it is a private Montessori inspired b&m school. It is the only school DS6 has ever attended so any previous posts about his school are about this school. There are probably plenty of good and bad posts. He is 2e so not easy to parent or educate. We've all improved with time. The tuition is very reasonable ($600 a month) compared to other private schools in our area.
Each week he gets an individualized assignment sheet.
A week this year might look like this:
Spelling:
Write words once
Write in alphabetical order
Type words five times each
Spelling test
Math:
Packets #54, 55
Place value activity
Fractions activity
Reading:
Reading comprehension packets #12,13
Read aloud to parent volunteer
Geography
Trace, color and label map of Africa
Science
Watch documentary on African wildlife
Write a "My favorite African animal is..." report
Art/cooking/music
Lesson on African masks
Make a replica mask
Make peanut soup (help teacher do it and try some)
Learn an African song
So that is what it looks like in practice.
