By Frederick Classical Charter School, Inc. Science Program For the grammar stage (1-4), we use an Usborne series for the student textbook, coupled with a lab manual from Pandia Press, which specializes in classical education, and Gravitas Publications. The school’s approach avoids the “inquiry based” trend in education and uses a balanced approach. In kindergarten, students will learn through teacher- developed and selected materials, using a curriculum designed by the founding families.
