Wesley Prep PreK 3s students love playing with the parachute in P.E. class! It's such a fun activity for using different muscles and a great way to test the cause and effect of different movements on the movement of the parachute. It is a wonderful way to work together towards a common goal. Joyful Learning Creates Confident Children.

Our Primer, First, and Second Graders gave an amazing performance of "A Little Night Music" - this program was a great way to show off all they have learned about music so far. Wesley Prep's music program incorporates the Orff Method, this enabled the students to take an active role in arranging one of the pieces of music included in the show. BRAVO!

It was Game Time in the Third Grade Classrooms during Night at the Museum last week - the students created fun midway games using their knowledge of simple machines. Each game incorporated at least two of the simple machines (inclined plane, wedge, screw, lever, pulley, and wheel-and-axle). Hands-on Learning is cool!
