Discovery of Learning
TK-8th Hybrid Program
Discovery of Learning’s TK-8th Hybrid Programs are inspired by the educational philosophies of Bev Bos, Montessori, Waldorf, and Reggio Emilia. We believe in an eclectic approach to enriching our classrooms and activities as our teachers handcraft your child’s experience. We offer two types of Enrichment classes for families to choose from. Our Core Subject Enrichment Classes, offered 1-4 days per week (varies by campus) from 9am-2:30pm include Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies plus rotating elective topics.
Discovery of Learning Program:
- Address the whole child and adapt to multiple learning styles in their academics, as well as supporting emotional balance.
- Children learn valuable problem-solving and critical thinking skills when teachers support the social and emotional development of each child.
- At DOL our children are able to choose to work with friends or on their own, finding a space to work that suits their learning style.
- Classes are not divided according to child age or grade level, but grouped together in grade ranges, giving children an opportunity to learn and work to the best of their ability.
- Curriculum, covering the four core subject areas of Language Arts, Math, Social Studies, Geography (Hayden campus ONLY) and Science, is hand-crafted by our DOL certified teachers.
- Children learn through a variety of teacher-guided lessons, child-led interests, research projects, paper to pencil hands on learning, arts, music, electives, and use a variety of enriching materials in their classroom.
- Teachers provide the children with immediate feedback, working collaboratively to make changes to their work and learn from it.
- Lunch and outdoor exploration time are considered an extension of the learning environment and are crucial to the child’s social, physical, and intellectual development.
- The multi-aged classroom provides children the opportunity to be leaders, learn from others, and collaborate with peers.

CORE Learning Days
Our program offers a multi-age classroom setting (children are typically grouped within a 3 to 4-year range) with a child-centered, developmental, project-based, hands-on approach. Learning takes place at a child’s own pace, giving students opportunities to make choices about how to approach a subject.
Program Subjects
In our unique setting, our certified DOL teachers work collaboratively with children to create individualized curriculum based on each’s child’s educational goals for Math & Language Arts.
Social Studies/History will take the children on a tour around the world using a Charlotte Mason approach. Each lesson includes a passport, cooking experience and an in-depth view of the various cultures your child will be exploring.
Science includes S.T.E.M. with Science Circus, where each week your child will explore a new concept such as building roller coasters, studying meteorology, creating catapults and more! These lessons nurture curiosity, innovation, and provide a deeper understanding of how science connects to the world around them. Children will also take part in an on-campus science fair.
Geography (Hayden campus ONLY) introduces your child to the physical layout of the world around us. Children will learn foundational skills such as map reading, identifying landforms and geographical features. Lessons will include locating key countries, states, and cities on each continent.
Electives are offered 1-4 times per week, depending on the number of days your child attends campus. Each Elective course runs for a few weeks at a time, allowing the children to explore the subject with more depth. These engaging, hands-on lessons enrich the learning experience by allowing your child to discovery new interests, develop unique talents, and build confidence.

Inspired Learning & P.E. Day
Inspired Learning days are self-directed with support from our certified teachers, allowing children to follow their interests and curiosities. There is no set curriculum, giving children the freedom to choose what, how, and when they learn. This autonomy helps develop intrinsic motivation and a love for learning.
While learning is self-led, we also emphasize the importance of community and collaboration. Children regularly share their discoveries and projects with peers, fostering a supportive and interactive learning community. This helps build social skills, teamwork, and mutual respect.
With a variety of resources and materials available, children can engage in diverse activities, from hands-on projects to creative arts, science experiments, and outdoor exploration.
P.E. is also a part of our inspired learning day. Children will learn to play different sports/physical activities. Our ultimate goal is to instill a passion for lifelong learning & the importance of whole-body wellness by staying active.
Inspired learning empowers children to lead their own educational paths. We help them become curious, adaptable, and self-motivated learners, prepared to succeed by pursuing what interests them.
