Fractional Relationships and Algebraic Thinking
Ages 10 - 15
ONLINE Mondays
8:30 - 9:30am PST/11:30am - 12:30pm EST
During these club meetings, our growing mathematicians are invited to dig into relationships amongst the fractional understandings that they intuitively bring with them. With culturally relevant tasks, we also support them in their experiences with the language and beauty of algebra. ​
​Activities include:
-
creating visual models of fractions that support the conceptual understanding of operations with fractions
-
grouping, joining, separating, measuring and partitioning with fractions
-
writing and solving equations
-
describing and evaluating algebraic patterns
-
graphing and analyzing data on an x-y coordinate plane​​
​​
As they explore and expand their mathematical understandings, our learners are building confidence in their own mathematical identities, engaging with each other's ideas and perspectives, inspiring each other to see their own brilliance, and collaborating with comfort and joy.
Cup of Joy

Fluency and Flexibility
With Numbers and Operations
Ages 7 - 11
ONLINE Wednesdays

Learners engage in open-ended tasks and games that promote math fluency and flexibility. We solve culturally-relevant story problems in ways that make sense to each of us, and compare and build upon each other’s mathematical strategies. We joyfully and curiously discover our own ways to describe mathematical patterns and make deep connections across number and algebraic properties. We explore mathematics in art and nature, and enjoy strategy games from around the world.
In these sessions, learners do much more than memorize math facts and algorithms. They come to see themselves as profound mathematical thinkers who have the confidence and the habits of mind to tackle new problems.
Earth Codes
Ages 10 - 15
ONLINE Thursdays
10:30 - 11:30am PST/1:30 - 2:30pm EST

An earth science and systems-based learning portal exploring ecosystems, elements, environmental awareness, and the relationship between the human body and the natural world. Students engage with ecological literacy, observation, and stewardship through discussion, reflection, and experiential learning.
Individualized
Learning
Partnerships
Scheduled with each family
Whether the focus is math, literacy, knot-tying, Spanish, sound healing, plant science, or another area of study, this is much more than a tutoring session. A learning facilitator partners with your child to build a trusting relationship, engage in easeful conversations, and develop conceptual understandings in depth. Every session offers a supportive space for reading, writing, mindfulness, and joy. Learners bring their intuitive knowledge, skills and curiosities, and we gently nudge them along their learning journey.
Coaching Sessions
for Caregivers
Scheduled with each family
As a parent, do you feel guilt, anxiety, shame, helplessness about how your child is “performing” academically? Well, we know and believe that your child is not behind. Rather, each one is on their own divine timeline. Let’s partner together to admire what they are intuitively understanding. Let’s enjoy witnessing the brilliance in their choices, their perceptions, their gifts. And let’s talk about how we can follow their lead into deeper explorations. In our coaching sessions, we respectfully listen and support you as you explore ideas, philosophies, resources, programs, logistics, and communities. We lean into the details of your child’s thinking, and we offer questions and options for you to consider as you plan, reflect, and problem-solve through your adventures of home learning.
​
Nature and Nurture
Ages 5 - 12
Mondays 10:00am - 12:00pm
Outdoors in South LA
Learners build understanding of the core academic principals of modern natural sciences as well as Indigenous ancient knowledge of the natural world. We connect with the natural elements through various outdoor activities including meditation, plant exploration and classification, soil work, foraging, play, insect investigations, scenic observations and nature journaling. We delve into concepts of sustainability, self- and community care as we learn from the ecosystems in nature.
Creative Expression
Ages 5 - 12
Mondays 12:00 - 2:00pm
in South LA
Our learners take space to express themselves through various mediums in this club. With an admiring lense on nature and all her powers, we use movement, poetry, creative writing, improv, art and music to express our connection and gratitude.
Wonders of Water
Ages 8 - 15
Fridays 10:00 -- 12:00pm
in South LA
The most precious resource on our planet, water has the power to soothe, hydrate and heal. From the geometric and scientific construction of water, to how it behaves on Earth and in our bodies, to how the Earth and people treat the flow, we connect to the many wonders of water. As we read articles, watch documentary clips, enjoy stories, read data, and conduct experiments, we learn about the intelligence and power of water. We analyze the political and capitalist practices around water, and we dialogue about our responsibility to protect and preserve its vitality.
Young Math Minds
Ages 5 - 7
Fridays 10:00 - 12:00pm
in South LA
Our youngest learners come to this club with intuitive understandings about counting and problem solving. We use the context of their lives, communities, interests, ourstories, and dreams to invite their mathematical thinking. We create and play with math tasks that welcome multiple perspectives and strategies, and we facilitate conversations that inspire them to engage in each other’s mathematical ideas.
With confidence, joy and curiosity, our Young Math Minds continue to develop their counting skills of one-to-one correspondence, sequencing and cardinality. They grow in their natural understandings of skip counting, one less and one more, place value, classifying, measuring, grouping and partitioning. As they create drawings, models, and equations that represent their problem solving strategies, they begin to recognize beautiful relationships between numbers and operations.
Cyberworld Navigators
Ages 8 - 15
Fridays 2:00 - 4:00pm
in South LA
In this club, we share and learn about practices, strategies, and resources that support us with safely navigating the digital world. We discuss the benefits and dangers around us when engaging in online research, using social media, chatting online, and gaming with others. We explore the impact of wifi signals on our health, and the advantages and disadvantages of ai. We practice safe online etiquette as we collaborate in creating content.
Tinkering Club
Ages 5 - 9
Fridays 12:00 - 2:00pm
in South LA
Tinkering is about hands-on experiences, learning from failures, and unstructured time to explore and invent. We tinker as we take things apart, put things together, figure out how things work, and attempt to build and make creations using tools.
With support and safe structures, our young people have space to ask questions, make plans, work individually and collaboratively, imagine, visualize, brainstorm, test ideas, solve problems, revise, and share our creations with others.
We upcycle, using resources from around our homes and community to innovate. We use our senses to explore the physical properties of materials, and build our vocabulary as we describe and make predictions. We explore how others around the world are successfully creating Earth-friendly contraptions for great utility, and we honor the value of reducing waste, refurbishing, reusing, and repurposing items.
