Creating Lifelong Learners
FCA is designed for families who are registered with the county as homeschoolers. Beginning August 2023, we invite your K-6th grade kids to participate in our small group science classes on Tuesdays & Thursdays (9am - noon).
Learners will be engaged in experiences that encourage curiosity, open-mindedness, flexibility and quality thinking. They will be encouraged to think deeply about questions and provide evidence to support their thinking.
When you walk into a Freedom classroom, you should see students involved in discussion, analyzing and critically thinking about concepts. You’ll see kids working in partnerships at whiteboards constructing understanding. You will hear them share ideas, reason, provide proof and productively argue as they work to make sense of the science and math.
Science class & math enrichment
At FCA, professional educators provide weekly science lessons so you don't have to. No need to purchase science curriculum while attending FCA. By attending our classes (30 weeks | Aug - May), your kids will meet their science requirements and have fun doing it.
We will explore life science, physical science, and earth & space science through a variety of lessons, labs, and group discussions. In addition to meeting your science needs, our educators will also provide opportunities for math enrichment. While you cover a standard day-to-day math curriculum at home, we will create lessons in the classroom that connect those math concepts to real world math. Kids will discover how math is woven together and have a better understanding of how it all connects.
help!- collaborate with an educator
Want to talk something through with a professional educator? Not sure about the curriculum you've already purchased? Unsure about planning your year or record keeping? We would love to meet with you.
This one hour session with an educator is a great time for parents to talk through their curriculum/learning plans. Childcare is not available at this time.
FAmily Connections
FIELDTRIPS: At Freedom, one of our goals is to provide opportunities for homeschool families to get out and explore Florida together. Fieldtrips will be available to our FCA families and additional homeschool families throughout the year at additional costs.
PARK DAYS: At Freedom, we love recess. Since we have a release time of noon, we encourage our FCA families to use these days as park/picnic days with other FCA or homeschool families. You never know when a FCA teacher might join in on the fun.
HISTORY- collaborate with an educator
At Freedom, we would love to collaborate with you, the parent, to help you create learning opportunities that allow your child to explore and discover the structure of our government and how it works and to learn about Civics and U. S. History, including Florida History. We would be delighted to schedule a session with you!
