Upcoming Classes
NEW! Native American Lives & Legends
Thursdays: 9:30-10:20
6 Weeks: September 8, 15, 22 , 29 October 6, 20 (No Class October 13)
Location: Jewish Community Center
Tuition: $165
Native American tradition is deeply connected to nature. Through the oral tradition of legends and animal trickster tales, as well as arts and crafts, your student will explore this important relationship and have fun making connections to their own environment. We will discover our individual animal totem, make and design our own unique Pueblan coil pot, construct our own model tipi, and more. Other topics covered: identify regions of Native American tribes, compare these regions and learn how their survival and craftsmanship depended on their natural environment; learn about legends and, as a class, come up with our own animal tale (ie: How rabbit lost its tail). The following are some of the books and stories we may read: Coyote: A trickster tale from the American Southwest, Raven: A trickster tale from the Pacific Northwest, Crow and Hawk: a Traditional Pueblo Indian Story, The magic of Spider Woman, The legend of Bluebonnet.
Outside Classwork: Finish assignments started in class

Testimonials
"These classes are a great combination of hands-on activities, collaboration, and critical thinking! My kids looked forward to going to class each week."
~ Melinda P., Homeschool Parent
"C3 is one of the greatest parts of homeschooling. The entire atmosphere is amazing. All the students are kind, welcoming, and friendly. The teachers are humble, approachable, and filled with knowledge. The classes are easy to follow, and don't require much time dedication outside of class. They are interesting and educational, but they are fun at the same time. I have learned not only about biology and speech and debate (some of the classes I've taken there), but about how to be a better version of myself. The compassion of the teachers and the passion of the students urge me to act the same way, and they subsequently make me better as a person. Every time I go to C3, I am excited to see my classmates and learn more with them. For, in this case, the learning aspect of a class isn't boring or difficult. The classes are structured in such a way that it keeps me engaged and is enjoyable to be a part of. It devastates me that, as of next academic year, I will be too old for the C3 classes. C3 is a fun, educational, and friendly environment." - Ella, age 15
