Welcome to Creative Explorers!

Instructor: Miss Cindy (Cynthia)

My classes are geared toward 7 to 8-year-old students. I offer one or two-day classes per week. Many state standards are covered with academic and hands-on projects. All my classes incorporate a multi-disciplinary approach including Character Development/Social Emotional Learning (SEL) in which students learn team-building skills, the importance of classroom citizenship, and of course, making new friends! On Mondays and Tuesdays I will be teaching Math, Science, and the Arts. On Wednesdays and Thursdays I will be teaching Social Studies/History through a Magic Tree House book, Math, and Science.

For those returning, all new content for classes.

About Ms. Cindy:

I grew up in San Jose, California. My husband and I moved up to Placer County in 1992. I am a mother of 3 and grandmother of 3. I homeschooled my son from Kindergarten until 8th grade. I have taught Bible studies, I taught homeschool enrichment classes in co-ops with my son, I was a teacher’s aide for homeschool enrichment teachers, and I have been teaching at The Cottage since 2015. I am a passionate about teaching and believe children need to fell safe and loved in order to take risks in learning. I also enjoy spending time with my family, art and being creative. I am so fortunate to do what I love each week!
