School Aged Collectives
At The Native School, we offer two dynamic, hands-on programs that cultivate both a love for learning and a deep connection to nature. Our Literacy and Science Collectives are designed to engage children in experiential learning that is both educational and fun, fostering growth in key academic areas while promoting creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving.
​
The Science Collective is a 12-week, child-led exploration program for K-4th graders, featuring California standards-aligned activities, nature journaling, and outdoor experiments. This program encourages scientific inquiry and discovery through hands-on, nature-based learning. Students will have the opportunity to explore the natural world while developing essential skills in observation and documentation.
​
The Literacy Collective provides sequential, Orton-Gillingham-based literacy instruction that supports personalized learning. With multi-sensory, nature-infused activities and guided play, this program strengthens reading, writing, and language comprehension. Students will receive personalized assessments and consultations to help them thrive in their literacy journey.
Both collectives can be paired for a comprehensive learning experience that integrates science, literacy, and the great outdoors to create a well-rounded educational adventure.
​
Give your child the tools to explore, understand, and engage with the world around them in meaningful and impactful ways.
