The writing curriculum is used every day with students at Antwerp Township schools. They begin by placing ideas upon paper by drawing pictures, then they learn to replace these pictures with words and sentences. By middle school, they have learned some of the genres that they will continue to use such as informational, essays, short stories, poetry, drama and more. In high school, this foundation is expanded upon by showing students how to use them in their lives, such as in college or job applications.

Chalk Talk: Scientific Method
Whether for a science class or science fair project, students will be more confident in completing it if they understand the steps in the scientific method. The first step that the student needs to consider is the problem that they would like to study. Then they need to break that down more by forming a hypothesis they can complete research for. Then come the time they gather material. This includes magazines, books, materials for the experiment or whatever else they may need. They need to create a procedure that they will be able to collect observations or data from. Finally, they need to come to a conclusion, including if the procedure answered their hypothesis and the steps they went through to complete this project. With these steps in mind, the student and the parents, can help to keep the project going in the correct direction.
