Zorra District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
Student learning is organized by the framework provided in the Ontario Curriculum. This framework specifies the expectations for learning at each grade level, the higher order thinking skills which students will develop in their pursuit of subject-area knowledge, and the ways in which they are expected to show what they have learned. This instructional process is used in all core subjects and has been expanded to encompass enrichment or elective style courses as well. Within all subjects, technology is increasingly incorporated. Beyond writing essays on a computer, students are able to thoroughly learn about how to develop and innovate with next generation learning technologies.
We currently cover the following Zorra area school districts: London District Catholic School Board and Thames Valley District School Board.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Zorra District Curriculum
The core academic subjects of Math and English are emphasized as the Educational Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) requires that students take proficiency assessments in these subjects during elementary and middle school and as a requirement of graduation. The Math curriculum has been arranged so that students learn fundamentals of numeracy, geometry, data analysis and algebraic thinking. This foundation enables them to do more complex work in these areas in high school and provides the basis by which students will be able to use prior information to reason.
In English, the fundamentals of literacy and communication are scaffolded through years of reading and writing, preparing students to be able to analyze texts and express complex thoughts in writing. Media is also focused on in the English curriculum and can be used as a text that prompts analysis. The use of such prompts can help students develop their thoughts, voice, and means to express new ideas.

Chalk Talk: Helping a Child Choose an Extracurricular Activity
The schools offer students a range of extracurriculars which they may join in elementary or secondary school. Extracurriculars are
important for the social and learning benefits and for the extra effort it shows on college and job applications. It's important that
students take the opportunity; if a student is shy, getting them involved earlier may be helpful as they will be more used to joining
in a venture come high school. The options available to students can support academics, like the Science Olympiad or Mathletics, it can
support a potential career pursuit, like Mock Trial, or can just allow for some fun with other kids, like the Adventure Club.
