Learning Grove and its Mission
The Learning Grove's Focus
We run free weekly workshops for elementary school students with a focus on math and English. We have created our own curriculum focused on solving open-ended problems, and students will complete a final project of their own. We also have many videos and resources available online for students.
The Learning Grove is a student-run nonprofit focused on cultivating a lifelong love of learning. Through project-based educational workshops, we help students grow intellectually, creatively, and collaboratively. We strive to support students on their learning journey no matter what step they are on.
Why Bay Learning Grove?
1
Inclusive Resources
We provide resources for various learning needs and tailor our curriculum to individual students. Our program is designed for Oakland public school students who may not have had the opportunity to develop their curiosity and passion for learning.
2
Hands-On, Project Based Learning
Our workshops foster deeper understanding of concepts, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills by engaging students in open-ended games and projects. Our curriculum is based on cognitive science research about how students learn best.
3
Fully Student Driven
Our program is run by students for students. As high schoolers, we want to give back to our community and pass on the amazing resources we got throughout our educational journeys that have inspired a love of learning in us. We have designed our own curriculum based on our experience working with kids.
