Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Bedford District Curriculum
The Language Arts standards require students to be capable of reading and comprehending a variety of physical and digital fiction and non-fiction texts. The standards also require students to develop important literacy skills such as writing, listening, and critical thinking.
The Math standards require students to be knowledgeable about the core concepts that guide all mathematics learning and application. Students are introduced to these concepts in the earliest grades, and then go on to further develop their understanding. This is the foundation that all other Math concepts will build upon, and therefore is an extremely important skill. Applying the skills learned to real-life situations is also a large part of the curriculum. Students are able to take what they have learned and use it in everyday ways such as balancing a checkbook, measuring ingredients for a recipe, or calculating the drive time to the movie theater. These are all examples of how the Common Core Mathematics curriculum prepares students to dig deeper and increase their literacy in math concepts.

Chalk Talk: Choosing the Right Book
There are few areas of education that cause parents as much stress as reading. Before a child begins reading parents wonder if he or she should be reading yet. After a child begin reading parents wonder whether or not he or she is reading the right book. The truth is that the right book does not exist. No single book is interesting enough, challenging enough, and entertaining enough for one child. That’s why children need to read widely, and why they sometimes need to read books that are below their reading levels. A child who does not find reading to be entertaining will not develop a love of reading. Sometimes the least challenging books are the most entertaining. A child should read those books. Sometimes the most challenging books are the most interesting. A child should read those, too. Though children don’t know it, they crave well-rounded reading experiences. If finding those experiences means that they have to jump among multiple books, that’s fine. At least they are reading.
