Curriculum

Every year, the Finnish school comes up with a theme to base the lesson plans on. The theme for the 2010-2011 school year's is "The world of animals". This is a topic that has been a past favorite with our children. Throughout the year we will explore different regions of the world and the animals that live in them through stories, songs, games, and art projects.
