一所完全沉浸式的中文小学

Upper Elementary

In Upper Elementary, we continue to build on the academic and linguistic foundations that we’ve built in Pre-K, Kinder, and Lower Elementary. Using Chinese, students explore more advanced work in Math, Chinese Language Arts, and Science. In Upper Elementary, English language instruction comprises between 30-50% of the curriculum, including English Language Arts, Social Studies, and SEL. As in our earlier grades, students’ work emphasizes individualized and independent learning, group projects and collaboration, project-based learning, and presentation.
