✨ Meet our Lead Learners as kids! 👧🏻

This is the team leading classes, guiding conversations, and encouraging families on their homeschooling journeys. 🧐 Can you guess who is who?

🎼 This week, one of our tutors taught the Second Law of Thermodynamics to the tune of “The Lonely Goatherd” 🐐 Songs like these help students tuck important ideas away in their memory while bringing a lot of joy to the classroom. 🧱 In the Foundations years, students are establishing the building blocks of knowledge through songs, motions, and repetition. These small pieces become tools they’ll draw on in later years— making it easier to dive into deeper conversations, richer study, and more complex ideas as they grow. 💛 We’re so thankful for the creativity and enthusiasm our tutors bring each week as they help make learning meaningful and memorable

Every four weeks, we learn and sing a new hymn together as a community. 🎼 Hymns beautifully weave together music, poetry, and theology— helping us begin the day in worship and wonder.

As much as we gather each week for our students to grow in knowledge, skill, and excellence, our deeper prayer is that their hearts would be shaped toward worship— that they would stand in awe of the Lord and respond with praise to the beauty He has created 🩵

🗺️ Moments like this remind us how grateful we are for our Tutors. At CC, Tutors are lead learners— modeling curiosity and joy as they guide students and parent teachers.

👩🏻‍🏫 CC believes parents are their children’s primary teachers, and Tutors come alongside families to help both parent teachers and students sharpen their classical skills in community.

💛 We’re especially thankful for the Tutors in our CC on the Hill community— for their creativity, commitment, and love for the Lord that shapes how they lead and serve each week!

This principle is lived out each week in our Challenge program. Tutors guide discussion rather than lecture, inviting students into seminar-style learning where questions are welcomed and ideas are explored together. By discussing and presenting assignments, students begin making connections across subjects— including math, science, history, literature, economics, philosophy, and theology.

🤔💭 This trains students to not only know answers but to think well, ask good questions, and pursue wisdom.

“The teacher should guide the thought of his class; but, if he attempt to do all the talking, he will find, when he concludes, that he has been left to do all the thinking.”

- Reed & Kellogg, An Elementary English Grammar

📸 Community Snapshot

This week in community, students got their hands dirty, feet chilly, and minds engaged!

🎨 Fine Arts
We studied the work of Thomas Gainsborough, learning how he loved painting landscapes and often included portraits so his work would sell. Students attended to his color palette and experimented with mixing paints to mimic the tones he used.

🔬 Hands-on Science
Our science experiment explored heat energy and conduction. Students stood outside with one foot on aluminum foil and one on a rug to compare how different materials transfer heat. Aluminum felt colder because it’s a good conductor and drew heat away from the foot while the carpet acted as an insulator slowing heat loss.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to learn together— engaging minds, training habits of attention, and delighting in God’s creation.
