Union City Learning Pod (Indoor/Outdoor)
Hi Parents! Are you interested in socialization through a pandemic with your children? Then you have come to the right place. As an educator and parent and founder of THE LITTLE GREEN HOUSE Educational Services, LLC , I understand the importance of children socializing and building friendships in group activities. This school year our children may not be able to go to physical school to socialize but it doesn't mean that they cant build meaningful relationships using learning pods.


What is a Learning Pod? The National School Choice describes a learning pod as follows, " Based on the needs of the community it serves, a pod may gather for just 10-20 hours a week or only certain days. Families may work independently the remainder of the time...In pods, many families see an education environment where their children can learn and socialize with fewer health and safety concerns. In a recent poll of families nationwide, just 1/3 of parents said they were comfortable sending their child back to school under the present circumstances. This means there’s a lot of parents who are looking for alternative learning environments. For many, pods seem like a way to both prioritize safety and engage in much-needed in-person learning and community."


So I would like to offer our children an opportunity to join a learning pod. As parents we may tailor it to best fit the needs of the collective but it is a safe space for socialization, learning and fun!

This pod will not replace your current school curriculum, but it will be supplemental focusing on extracurricular activities indoor and outdoor as well as it may support student classroom concepts offered by your child's school in Union City.


We hope that you join us so we can make history in Union City while impacting positively our children's experiences through this pandemic.

Thank you and I hope to see you soon in our learning pod!
