1. Welcome to Curriculum Night!

2. What do we teach?
Beyond the reading, writing, and math, our goal is to teach your children how to be productive members of society. In order to do so, we must make our students confident, strong, and able to learn from their mistakes. We accomplish this through practice, hard work, and, occasionally, laughter.

3. Where do we begin?
Before we can teach your students that they can accomplish anything, we must first assess what they know. The next few slides cover where the students were assessed at the beginning of the year in reading and math.

12. TITLE I Reading & Math
Title I, under the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), provides financial assistance to local educational agencies to meet the needs of special educationally disadvantaged children at preschool, elementary, and secondary school levels. The purpose of Title I is to help all children achieve the state’s academic standards. This is accomplished through supplemental programs that consist of instructional services, instructional support services, school wide reform efforts, and increased involvement of parents in their children’s education.
