Classes offered
Bible Curriculum (Encounter Adventist Curriculum) (8:00 - 8:55 a.m.)
Our school uses the Encounter Bible Series. This program uses the Bible as the textbook and Jesus as the Guide for transforming not only your student’s relationship with Him but others as well. Using the Encounter materials both students and teachers are inspired, encouraged and empowered with the help of the expansive array of supportive resources. The key goal of the Encounter curriculum is to bring our children to the feet of Jesus! With the Encounter curriculum there is "Orientation," "Exploration," "Reflection," "Celebration!"
Big Ideas (9:00 - 10:00 a.m.)
Big Ideas Math programs use a Universal Design for Learning to create a fun and innovative program that uses hands-on activities and scaffolded instruction. This allows for balanced lessons with built-in Response to Intervention that appeal to students and teachers alike.
Learning targets and success criteria help to focus student learning and make learning visible to teachers and students. Explorations help students develop a growth mindset by engaging them in productive struggle, leading to conceptual understanding.
With a strong emphasis on problem solving in the classroom, students can transfer their mathematical knowledge to new concepts and apply their understanding to real-life situations. Through practice and problem solving, students become more comfortable with the problem-solving process to become strategic mathematical thinkers.
In addition to Big Ideas, students will have use MobyMax to assist in find the learning gaps.
