Common Core Standards

Parents:
If you will look at the tab on the right side of this blog, you will find access to the common core standards that you child will be exploring over the next school year.  I am so excited to see this change come about.  In the past our state favored a linear list of standards that we barely had time to cover throughout the year.  With the new standards you will see a great difference how we roll.  :)  We are covering less skills, but the students will be expected to learn them a deeper levels.  Instead of that linear list of standards, you will see a cycle of standards where we learn new skills and then cycle through them several times through the year seeking deeper levels of understanding.  I fully expect every student and parent to be amazed at the critical thinking skills we will be developing this year.  Feel free to use the CC Tab to explore any grade/subject level.
