All knowledge is shown to be interrelated.
The curriculum takes a global view and emphasizes the interdependence of all life and the interconnectedness of all peoples. The core or foundation of the curriculum is the Great Lessons. These are connected stories that span time and space, designed to capture the imagination and inspire awe and wonder. These stories provide overviews and act as catalysts, motivating the child to explore the disciplines of language, mathematics, social studies and science in order to further investigate the details of these great tales. The elementary environment provides many opportunities for social development.
