Beyond the Classroom:
Real-World Learning That Sticks
Children learn best by doing. That’s why at Masterminds, we bring learning to life through project-based units, hands-on experiments, field kits, and global expeditions — all deeply integrated into our core academics.

Project Based, Thematic Learning

Neuroscience meets experience

→ Each term includes a deep dive into a real-world theme (e.g. “How Things Work,” “Classical Civilizations,” “Ocean Ecosystems”).
→ Students read, research, debate, build, and present — often across multiple subjects.
→ Projects build critical thinking, communication, and creativity.

Outdoor & Field-Based Education

The ATHENA+ framework

→ We use California and Dubai as extended classrooms.
→ Weekly off-site learning includes visits to science labs, farms, sustainability hubs, and cultural centers.
→ Outdoor education is core to physical and social development.

Masterminds Expeditions

→ Activities may include:
      •   Citizen science projects
      •   Sailing and environmental conservation
