TURTLEFOOT LEARNING * Home * About * Enrollment * Contact Welcome to our website A MICROSCHOOL The public education system has let our children down for too long. It's time for a different kind of school. Get Started Let's Start by building foundations in core skills CORE SKILLS Students build core skills each day through computer programs designed to target instruction regardless of age or ability. This means students typically performing below their peers have the time and support to build skills at their own paces without being compared to others. It also means that students who work at an accelerated pace have the freedom to do so. * Reading * Writing and Grammar * Math CONNECTIONS ARE COURSES TAUGHT BY AGE BAND. THESE COURSES INCLUDE SUBJECTS LIKE ART, BIBLE, HISTORY, AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND HEALTH. TEAMS, NOT GRADE LEVELS Age bands allow for students with varied ability levels to cooperate within the connections classes. We call these teams. DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE Students build some skills, such as fine motor skills, at varied ages. Therefore, we tailor our connections classes to the teams based on what is developmentally appropriate for those students. ENGAGING Students attention spans and interests also vary with age. The use of teams to teach connections classes ensures we provide engaging content for all of our teams. EXPLORATORY CLASSES Exploratory classes include Science and Engineering topics among others. These are project-based learning units where all students participate together to solve a problem. These units are engaging for students, open-ended, and aligned with learning goals. They allow students to put together everything they know and learn to analyze, evaluate, and create solutions to real world problems. Students of all age ranges and ability levels participate in these projects cooperatively. For example, in the task of creating a community garden, students would learn about plants and what they need to grow, the types of soils and native plants to the area, as well as the elements of irrigation, water erosion, runoff, pollution from fertilizers, and many other topics meeting elementary and middle school standards for the state of Georgia. Cooperative learning is based in the constructivist learning theory. You can learn more about this theory here. NOW COLLECTING INTEREST FORMS FOR THE 2024-2025 SCHOOL YEAR FOR STUDENTS BETWEEN THE AGES OF 6 AND 13 (TRADITIONALLY 1ST GRADE THROUGH 8TH GRADES), AND SPACE IS LIMITED! Get Started About us ABOUT US Mircroschools, though fairly new, are spreading as the answer to the current education situation. In our experience, public schools do not provide the best learning experiences for the majority of learners, and private schools mostly just copy the failed practices implemented in public schools- you just pay for it. It is our desire to be an alternative to the current system. We provide education experiences backed by research, and we empower students to take control of their own learning.
