How Children Learn Science
at Living Wisdom School

IN THIS ENTERTAINING audio interview, former Living Wisdom School math and science director Dharmaraj Iyer explains why an unusually high proportion of LWS students rate science and math among their favorite classes — and why LWS graduates do well in these subjects when they go on to other schools.

At LWS, science education is not directed at preparing children to “test well,” as is often the case in schools where a science teacher may have 180 students. The low student-teacher ratio allows students not only to master the California State Board of Education science content standards, but to acquire a love of science through fun-filled challenges in problem-solving and hands-on experiments.
