Young Scholars Block Program
The YSA Block Program was developed and implemented in collaboration with City & Country, an independent school in New York City that boasts a rich history of progressive education that includes the block curriculum.
The blocks are used in all areas of interest and discovery: mathematics, geography, science, and literacy, as well as providing a platform to practice social interaction, collaboration, and creativity.
All classes at YSA participate in the block program beginning with our youngest students.
Our observation and documentation of the children at play during block time is magical and remarkable.
