Bolton District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
Bolton area schools use the Ontario Curriculum as the framework for teaching and learning. The Curriculum is a framework that describes what skill sets students need to develop in their courses each year in order to be proficient and prepared to enter the next stage. These skills represent the standards of learning that students are assessed in during provincial testing. Higher level thinking skills like reasoning and self-reflection are brought about through the skills taught in Algebra and English, and concepts like systems of governance are taught through the Social Studies Curriculum. Within the curriculum, each subject contains a detailed description of these higher level and conceptual learning goals.
We currently cover the following Bolton-area school districts: Peel District School Board and Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Bolton District Curriculum
In addition to a description of the basic knowledge students develop, the Ontario Curriculum describes the more advanced areas of thinking that students will develop during their course of study. The math curriculum in grade 9 calls for students to be able to solve first-degree equations and manipulate numerical and polynomial expressions. Students are also expected to develop an understanding of the characteristics of a linear relation and interpret the meanings of points on scatter plots or graphs that represent linear relations. These skills helps students to develop relational reasoning and hone their ability to solve problems with precision.
In English, a higher level of analysis is called for in students approach to reading. They are expected to analyse the perspectives in what they read and ask questions about the values or beliefs of the author. Another critical literacy goal is to have students determine the effectiveness of a text and use textual evidence to support their claims. During high school, the use of evidence to support analytic claims about both fiction and non-fiction is a significant expectation and students must also demonstrate this skill in their written assignments.

Chalk Talk: The Benefits of High School College Programs
Did you know that you could attend college courses at many institutions, even if your current high school does not offer such programs? It’s true! Many community colleges and universities provide educational opportunities specifically for high school students. Students can enroll for evening classes during the school year or attend summer programs. It may even be possible to design a personal curriculum through your own high school; it never hurts to discuss your ideas with an administrator or guidance counselor. These courses typically allow students to earn college credit. Although not every class will earn you credit, the courses are designed to help students understand better the rigors and options involved in collegiate study. Wherever you live, it is possible to find the program right for you. Look online, discuss your options with your parents and school staff, and take a chance at college.
