By first grade, children have moved from the solitary play and parallel play seen during the early childhood years to true social interaction, or cooperative play. Our primary division teachers take full advantage of this natural progression by structuring lessons through cooperative grouping and laboratory explorations. Manipulatives are still an integral part of our teaching methodology, especially in mathematics.
