Approach

The GSM Elementary Program teaches a blended curriculum incorporating the “Thüringer Kompetenzlehrplan” for the German core subjects and US State Standards for ELA (reading, writing and phonics). The transdicipliary learning blocks summarized under the term “inquiry” entail content from US Social Studies, STEM/STEAM and the German “Sachkunde”. Inquiry, as well as Math are taught bilingually, incorporating learning material from Europe and USA. GSM uses the Eureka Math Squared Curriculum.
