TJS- The Juniper School

Turning lessons into lived experiences.
From classroom curiosity to real world discovery.
Last week, these explorers took their learning beyond the classroom by studying landforms by experiencing them firsthand.

Project-based learning in Kindergarten! We brought a story - The Wish Tree - to life with art, outdoor exploration, sentence writing, and imagination to create and share our own wishes for ourselves and the world!

Learning came to life in the mountains
this week as our 3rd and 4th graders
snowshoed at Andrew’s Lake. With the San
Juan Mountain Association, students
studied winter survival through the lens
of the Clark’s Nutcracker and explored
how heat transfer keeps us warm
outdoors. A stunning day of movement,
discovery, and joy in nature.
