Program descriptions
RUSSIAN LANGUAGE
Ages 2 to 6th grade
Our Russian language program is age and level specific. The entire class regardless of group is conducted in Russian without any translation. In the youngest group, Teremok, kids learn to answer basic questions, sing Russian songs, and build up vocabulary while the group of early middle schoolers, Buratino, focuses on reading and comprehension, grammar rules, translation and conversational Russian.

READING FICTION
2nd to 6th grade
In our new "Reading fiction" classes, students will read and analyze a piece of modern literary fiction. We will discuss basic elements like plot, setting and character development, as well as literary techniques used by the author, and complete projects based on the work. All reading will be done out loud in class. MORE

ART - A JOURNEY THROUGH HISTORY
Pre-K to 3rd grade
Our Art Foundations class focuses on enhancing children’s artistic potential and developing their vision and skills through following a careful step-by-step instructional format that guides them through the creative process. In class, we will work on the dynamics of line and color, explore simple basics of perspective and the interaction of shapes and elements. Using simple tools, children will be able to depict any animal, bird and plant, still life and landscape, and even human beings. In our program, we’ll richly use examples from classical and modern art, and while learning about its immense values, render it our "own." MORE
