Our youngest scientists brought the story of creation to life today!

After hearing the First Great Lesson: The Story of the Universe, our children explored the wonder of how our world came to be, through art. From swirling galaxies to volcanoes forming the earth, each child interpreted the Great Lesson charts in their own beautiful way, connecting hands and imagination to the story of everything.

“Give the child a vision of the whole universe... for all things are part of the universe, and are connected with each other to form one whole unity." - Maria Montessori
