The SC classes use an adapted curriculum called enCore! There are a total of 36 units, and those units are banded by grade levels. All of our classes have multiple grade levels. Due to this, some classes might use two units simultaneously. For example, a class might use a unit for kindergarten through second and a different unit for grades third through fifth. Each unit consist of an adapted fiction book and an adapted nonfiction book. It takes six weeks to complete one full unit with three weeks per book.

For more information on our wonderful curriculum please visit the link below!

In literacy, we will begin our new units with adapted fiction books.

• Ms. Payne will use the books Peter Rabbit and The Jungle Book.
  
• Mrs. Bassery will use the books Today I Am and The Velveteen Rabbit.
• Mrs. Banks will use the books Peter Rabbit and Today I Am.
• Ms. Turnbull will use the book The Velveteen Rabbit.

In science we will be learning about rocks!

In math, we will be working on counting and cardinality. Each unit uses a variety of different numbers. Some units might use numbers 0-10 where as another unit might use numbers through 100. Counting and cardinality can be done at home by counting the plates at dinner or counting the socks while folding laundry.

Cooking is an important life skill our students will need to learn. At home, you can use visual recipes to help your child begin learning these important skills!
