Wayland District and Curriculum

Wayland Public Schools serve five schools and 2,690 students. The district’s mission is to provide a nurturing environment that allows for academic risk-taking; cultivates students who are confident, collaborative, and contribute to a global society; challenges students; and instills the three qualities of civic responsibility, a love for learning, and empathy for others. The Assistant Superintendent is responsible for the curriculum and instruction and personnel—what is taught and how it is implemented all the way from kindergarten through 12th grade. Wayland Public Schools believe that literacy is the foundation upon which students’ learning is based and that reading and writing are essential skills for success in every content area.

We currently cover the following Wayland-area school district: Wayland Public Schools.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Wayland District Curriculum

The district uses a balanced approach to literacy, as research has proven that there is no single approach that is beneficial for all students. Teachers use on-going assessments to make decisions about their instruction, use data to differentiate instruction, explicitly teach literacy strategies, and give students ample opportunities to practice reading and writing. Students read and write a variety of genres. There are three types of learning applied in elementary math at Wayland: conceptual, procedural, and applied teaching and learning.

These types of learning are embedded in a rigorous, balanced mathematical curriculum. There are many essential components to student success in math: strong instruction, a proven core program, an ample amount of direct instruction, student exploration of ideas, individual practice, class discussion, reasoning about mathematical concepts, and authentic problem solving. Through the program Everyday Mathematics, out of a 60-minute math block, students typically spend about 20 minutes engaged in whole-class activities and the remaining 40 minutes with activities that conform to their individual strengths, needs and levels.

Chalk Talk: Health and Wellness in the Schools

Students participate in a health curriculum that helps them become good consumers of health information. Students analyze various sources of health information and develop the skills necessary to determine what is valid and reliable, and that which is phony. Learners also use these skills to evaluate the services offered by local health organizations for effectiveness. Using TV ads, magazines, and information from the Internet, students evaluate the statements made by manufacturers of health related products. Common advertising techniques are identified, as are the impact those techniques have on purchasing behavior regarding health products and the manner in which young people perceive health related issues. The social aspect of physical fitness is explored as well. Learners identify the ways in which they can promote fitness and healthy choices for their friends and loved ones, and recognize the individual choices that can be made when it comes to nutrition.
