Subject Breakdown

Math

  • Slow and meticulous approach to concepts and the building of a sturdy foundation.

  • Dynamic/full speed approach to progressing through topics when the student shows signs of “pulling” for more difficult concepts and displays a complete understanding of previous concepts.

  • Many parents have already seen what we are capable of here.  Our students in the after school program boast an almost 100% rate of 3-4 on the mathematics portion of their report card after having math with us for only 3 hours a session, 2 times a week.


English

  • Split into the two elements of English we deem most important:

    • The extended research of and understanding of the English language through all mediums.

    • The creative process and how writing is relevant in today’s world.

Science

  • Student curiosity-induced curriculum supported by the many amazing science education companies we are partnering with for hands-on work.

  • No limit to what can and can’t be studied.  Budget allocation for sciences, history, technology, etc. will be chosen by student-parent coordination.

  • Trips to museums, labs in colleges, and more.

History

  • Focused on specific people in history to bring a personal connection and understanding of historical events through more than one filter.

  • Sporadic approach to micro-lessons and larger periods of topic focus depending on students’ interests.

Arts/Design

  • Endless hours of simplifying collegiate level concepts for our students as well as the focus on pencil studies.

  • With the introduction of art mechanics on the iPad pro and other tablet devices, we are moving towards a digital art age.  This will be where our focus lies and why we are choosing to focus on pencil control/tactile function.

Technology

  • The exposure of our children to technology of any sort is an integral component of our curriculum.

  • Sparking a need for knowledge in this manner and allowing them the tools to achieve understanding will stop restraining our young ones and their aspirations.

  • Students’ curiosity dictates major events such as large robotics or programming learning blocks.

  • Typing proficiency from a young age.

  • Computer savvy - technically speaking - and understanding computer/iPad controls + commands.

  • Extended focus on “singularity” and our students’ ability to research/be independent with the help of the internet and other resources that will be readily available.

New York Homeschooling Program — In-Person & Online

Every child is a unique combination of natural talents and inclinations paired with collected knowledge and learned behaviors. It’s no wonder, then, that individual students learn at their own pace and take interest in different subjects.

Unfortunately, public education is designed for uniformity, with teachers and institutions beholden to strict standards for grade-appropriate instruction and testing. If your student is eager to learn at a faster pace or falling behind in certain subjects, you might be looking for better options.

Sanidas Academy offers individualized curricula based on each student’s needs and adapted to observe their progress. You can choose between online or in-person homeschooling, and your child will participate in a full 180-day school year program that is tailored just for them.

Perhaps you’re frustrated by the changing school environment, or you’re looking for a program that addresses students’ individuality. Maybe you prefer a home-school environment, but you simply don’t have the time or skills to serve as the instructor on your own.

At Sanidas Academy, our priority is your child’s success, now and in the future. What do we have to offer and what will you gain by choosing online or in-person homeschooling in New York?

Our Philosophy

We strive to provide every student with a truly exceptional education. While that starts with creating customized curricula and adjusting based on progress, it also includes a dedication to monitoring the educational landscape so we can pivot to provide students with the most relevant and advantageous instruction.

Our job is to prepare children to thrive in the world of tomorrow, and that means adopting a flexible and forward-thinking attitude.

If your child has an easier time focusing at home, the online homeschooling option provides you with a supportive and convenient alternative to the distractions of a traditional learning environment. Even so, your child will learn as part of a small online group, so they won’t miss out on opportunities to develop essential social skills.

For parents who can’t keep kids home unsupervised during the day, or for those who find in-person learning more effective, Sanidas Academy offers instruction at a homeschooling center located in Long Island City in Queens.

Whichever option you select, we offer solutions for homeschooling in New York that focus on your child’s individual needs and your personal preferences.

Homeschooling Online

Sanidas Academy is pleased to provide a program for New York state online homeschooling that delivers the comprehensive and individualized education your child deserves.

Sessions are conducted via Zoom or Google Hangouts five days a week so students enjoy the same stability and routine you would expect with in-person learning.

This program includes the four core subjects: English (Language Arts), Math, Science, and Social Studies. However, parents may elect to enroll students in only certain subjects as a way to supplement or replace other avenues of learning.

Students are placed in online learning groups of up to five based on ability and skill level. Using diagnostic tools like IXL, our staff is able to track individual student progress in order to adjust the curriculum as necessary to optimize the learning trajectory.

In-Person Homeschooling

While homeschooling online offers an ideal learning situation for many students and their families, it doesn’t work for everyone. Thankfully, you can still take advantage of the many benefits of Sanidas Academy by enrolling your child in our in-person program, conducted at our homeschooling center in Queens.

As with the online program, curricula are tailored to individual students, helping those who are struggling to excel and ensuring that no child is held back by artificial age/grade limitations. Opportunities for immersive, experiential learning are also presented in this program.

Subjects Covered

Our online and in-person homeschooling curriculum covers anticipated core subjects along with art, design, and technology to deliver a well-rounded education that helps children succeed in the world of tomorrow.

English

Language is a complex tool used for learning, communicating, and exploring ideas. There are two main parts to effectively learning any language: comprehension and expression.

At Sanidas Academy, students will thoroughly research English in a range of media in order to gain a better understanding of the language as a whole. They’ll also explore the creative process of expression through English and learn how and why writing is not only relevant but essential in the modern world.

Math

Even students who are interested in math can get discouraged by the high volume of repetition in some curricula. Others may not be able to keep up or may struggle with certain concepts. With New York state online homeschooling, students have the opportunity to learn math at their own speed.

Our approach to math starts with solid foundations that can be built upon. We give meticulous attention to ensuring complete understanding before moving on. With that being said, we also favor a self-paced learning environment, so when students are ready to progress, they aren’t held back by needless repetition.

Science

From the time they can crawl, children are intensely interested in the world around them. It’s this natural tendency toward curiosity that we strive to nurture with an engaging science curriculum bursting with hands-on learning experiences.

Partnering with a range of prominent science education companies allows for the introduction of immersive experiences, including trips to museums, college laboratory settings, and more. Coordinating closely with parents, we create curricula to encourage and empower students to explore their passions in an array of scientific and other fields.

History

While history is the study of recorded events throughout time, it’s also a story, populated by real people whom students can connect with in meaningful ways. Lessons offered through New York state online homeschooling can be adjusted to narrow or widen the scope of study based on the interests of each student.

Arts and Design

Art is an individual, creative pursuit with no right or wrong approach. We help students learn concepts and techniques so they can use art as a tool of personal expression.

For practical application, the Arts and Design curriculum revolves around pencil studies to develop the control that contributes to mastery of drawing in both real-world and digital media. Sanidas Academy understands the value of art in terms of intellectual, social, and emotional growth, and offers a focused course of study in this subject.

Technology

Connected technologies are the future — our program for homeschooling online is proof of that. Many students are intrigued by computers, robotics, and other growing technological fields, and Sanidas Academy is committed to cultivating this interest and the ability to adopt new technologies with ease.
We focus on fundamentals that translate to every avenue of this expansive industry, with lessons like understanding controls and commands, utilizing connected research tools, and exploring programming. Self-directed interests in this subject matter are supported as a means of personal growth.

Benefits of Choosing Sanidas Academy

Homeschooling offers a nontraditional approach to education that features improved instructional quality, individualized curricula, and the opportunity to enter a more productive learning environment, be it online or in person.

At Sanidas Academy, we strive to provide a relevant, engaging, and well-rounded education that fosters a love of learning and prepares students for success in personal and professional pursuits.
