Curiosity Classes

"What I hear I forget. What I see I remember. What I do I know."
Chinese Proverb

Science, History and Art History in English:

Our Curiosity classes are designed for curious children who like to explore science, history and art history in a hands - on way. Come along and make a journey through space or time and imagine what it would be like to be a firefly, a turtle, a Medieval knight or Odysseus. Find yourself in Ancient Troy or changing into a pig under the spell of Circe during our Ancient Greece course. Hop on a space shuttle and find out how life on the Moon would be like in our Geograhpy course 'A Space Odyssey'. Feel like Dracula while drinking your own blood concoction during our Gross Biology course 'Body Business'. Be a Paleontologist and dig up some dinosaur bones. Or be a budding artist and dance around your paper while practicing some action painting like Jackson Pollock in one of our Art History courses.

During our Curiosity classes we learn by doing and explore science and history through experiments, observation, interactive storytelling, songs, play, movement, drawing, writing, and craft projects. Our workshops are taught in English so the children learn new vocabulary around the themes discussed.

Depending on the length of the individual courses, every year we offer approximately 3 different curiosity courses: Body Business (Life Sciences), H₂O -I,H₂O -II (all about Water), Creepy Crawlies (Life Sciences), A Space Odyssey (Earth Sciences), Paleontology, Knights and Damsels (Medieval History and Art), The Spell of Circe (Ancient Greece course), Science Sampler, Art and Animals, Start with Art 1, 2 and 3, Habitats (Life Sciences), A Trip around the World (Geography) .

Classes are taught in small groups of maximum 10 children and take 1.15 hour. Every course includes some English activity sheets to give children the opportunity to absorb even better the information and vocabulary discussed during the course. For Children 7 - 12 years old.

Our main language is English, but since our classes are meant to transfer knowledge about the theme discussed rather than being merely an English class we do translate and explain occasionally subjects in Spanish when necessary.
