Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Barre District Curriculum
The curricula of Barre Supervisory Union District #61 are based on the Vermont Department of Education’s Grade Level Expectations for each subject. The district provides frameworks for physical education and health that embrace the whole individual. The district also uses recent research to drive their practices for the Science curriculum. The research suggests that engaging students in hands-on projects where they must solve a problem, gather data, or come to a conclusion based on experimentation or observation.
The goal of the Language Arts curriculum is simple; all students should be able read and write effectively. Reading strategies are taught early to improve reading comprehension skills. Students are encouraged to interact with texts and respond orally and in writing. To write successfully, students are first taught writing conventions and literary devices. Students can then use these building blocks to write to inform, express personal viewpoints, entertain, or persuade others.

Chalk Talk: Time Management Tips
What do you do if your teacher gives you an assignment that is due in a few days, a week, or a month? Do you start working right away or do you set it aside for the last minute? You are likely to do a better job if you start right away. First, if you encounter a problem or need to ask a question, you will have time to do so. You will have more time to do research and gather your ideas. If you finish before the due date, you can ask your teacher for feedback and make any necessary revisions. The best benefit to starting early is a mental one. You will not be negatively affected by the stress that will not doubt come from rushing to complete the task at the last minute. So start early, get some feedback, and sit back to watch your grades rise!
