Take advantage of the thaw: sign up for classes at the Learning Center while you can still get to your mailbox! Our first day is February 4th, and we still have openings in many classes, including art, guitar, Exploring Narnia, Comfort Cooking, Wildlife Discovery, Silk Screen Art, Machine Sewing, Critical Thinking, and more. Check out all our offerings at omahahomeschool.com Two classes are in this week’s spotlight: Our general art class is divided into 6-10 yr olds and 10 and older. Students use a variety of mediums, including drawing, painting, including various media from pencil, charcoal, color pencils and pastels (chalk) to water color and acrylics. Art history and styles will be included, focus on American artists (Grandma Moses, Mary Cassatt and James Audubon to name a few) and discussing the different styles and techniques that changed or developed over time. From Beaversdam to Cair Paravel, the world of Narnia has beckoned to children for generations. Join us as we discover all the riches of C.S. Lewis’ The Magician’s Nephew. Exploring Narnia will focus on the wonderful story itself, but will also enhance primary comprehension skills using techniques such as story mapping, vocabulary, cause and effect, character descriptions, alternate endings, compare and contrast, and Venn Diagrams. Most classes are 50-minutes long and meet for 12 weeks. Tuition is typically $80 for the entire semester. Some classes have additional charges for class fees or textbooks. Tuition may be higher for classes that meet for extended periods. You can find a complete list of classes and all our registrations materials at www.omahahomeschool.com. Questions?
