Snow Ball Fight! On days when it's not in the negatives, the Griffins enjoy going outside and playing in whatever the weather. This Monday, that meant going out into perfect snowball-making snow! #greenfieldsacademy
Creating clothes from scratch can be a long process! Fortunately, our Middle and High Schoolers are up to the task. Last week, they tore apart old clothes and drafted paper patterns. This week, they'll take those patterns and make a muslin. #projectbasedlearning
Hats off to the Griffins! Or maybe like Hats on? Last week the Lower School (K-6) used their heads (and their friend's heads) to create unique hats out of paper. As part of their exploration into fashion, they also watched a runway show, sketched designs, and created muslins.
We take our Intensives seriously! Every Friday, Griffins participate in Intensives (what other schools may call specials). These change each session and have recently included music, art, first aid, poker, theater, lock picking, cooking, and engineering. #greenfieldsacademy
Does air have weight? Inquiring minds want to know! The Launchers (K/1st grade) are exploring the natural world around them using hands-on experiments and inquiry based learning. #greenfieldsacademy #projectbasedlearning
It's time time to stop teaching stuff - it's time to guide young people so they can fulfill their potential. Join us Thursday, January 13th, to learn more. RSVP - ow.ly/QrPf50Hr66x
It's time time to stop teaching stuff - it's time to guide them to fulfil their potential. Join us Thursday, January 10th, to learn more about how Greenfields Academy has reinvented education to meet our crazy times. COVID protocols in place. RSVP - ow.ly/QrPf50Hr66x
Bienvenue à l'Atelier Des Arts Du Dessin! This week our older students worked on their artistic skills by spending concentrated periods of the day drawing and sketching. To help them really embrace their role of an artist, colorful berets were required. #greenfieldsacademy
Our Technomancer has fiddled around with the space-time continuum and changed our Guides' clothes into outfits from the past! But not to worry - the Griffins used these historical outfits as inspiration for their own creations as they dive into our next project: A Fashion Show!
Happy 2022! I'm grateful for all of the amazing people in our and our children's lives. The Greenfields Academy community has been resilient, supportive, and flexible - exactly the traits we want in our children. Together we are stronger. #GreenfieldsAcademy #2022 #UnitedWeStand
The dust has settled from another successful Exhibition! The Griffins did a great job showing off their skills, answering questions, and demoing tools. A huge thank you to all the families for supporting their Griffin throughout this session. #greenfieldsacademy
Tomorrow's the big day - Exhibition! The Griffins have been practicing all day today and yesterday to show off their new tools and skills to parents. #greenfieldsacademy #projectbasedlearning #makerspace
How can you make information stick? By making a sticker! Griffins are exploring all parts of the Tech Space, including how to print on the @cricut from setting up the file to weeding out the excess vinyl. #greenfieldsacademy #Makerspace # projectbasedlearning
Sawing and Sewing and Drills, oh my! All of the Griffins are traveling down their own yellow brick road to be ready for Exhibition. Our goal is to help students develop skills to be successful at whatever they want in life, including knowing how to create something from scratch.
From woodworking to air brushing to 3D modeling to sewing - there's a lot going on. If you are able, help us reach our target for our annual appeal. No amount is too small (or too big). Click here to donate - paypal.com/us/fundraiser/… #ittakesavillage #greenfieldsacademy
One of the best ways to learn a new skill is to have hands on practice and teach it to others. "Wood" you believe that in a few weeks, these students might teach their parents how to use a bandsaw? This session is all about exploring new tools, especially from our Makerspace.
Scissors are harder to use than you think, but our Griffins are pretty sharp! The Launchers (K and 1st grade) are working on mastering this skill (and many others) to demo and teach others at Exhibition. #greenfieldsacademy #projectbasedlearning #exhibition
