All kinds of faces are categorized, examined, and created in the Faces curriculum, giving students an introduction to concrete facades, cultural diversity, and geometric relationships. In Gifts, students explore the concepts of value and worth as they discover sentimental, personal, historical, and symbolic gifts in the world around them.
