Cambridge District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
The Curriculum explains what areas of knowledge need to be acquired to be proficient in the subject and then ties those elements of knowledge to broader concepts that will help a student in their future pursuits. Thinking skills like problem solving, choosing proper tools for problem-solving, planning and sequential thinking, and a range of critical thinking skills are gained through this curricular design. The curriculum used in the Cambridge public schools is the Ontario Curriculum. This curriculum has been adopted throughout the province because it lays out an organized manner by which to teach students to high standards of learning.
We currently cover the following Cambridge-area school districts: Waterloo Region District School Board and Waterloo Catholic District School Board.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Cambridge District Curriculum
The elementary level science curriculum introduces children to basic scientific concepts and skills. Students learn how to make observations of the world around them, noting colors, textures, sounds, smells, and other physical criteria that allow things in nature to be classified. Children begin investigations of the weather, noting the changes that occur with the seasons, such as leaves changing color. Energy is a topic that is introduced, with students gaining an appreciation for various types of energy, such as solar, electrical, and heat.
In Math, students learn about many topics including algebra, geometry, and data analysis. In their students of data analysis, students use information from sampling and make comparative inferences with regard to the sample’s characteristics. Students investigate the properties of chance as well, identifying the role of long-run relative frequency in determining chance. Uniform probability models are also used to further students’ understanding of probability outcomes and their ability to correctly determine the probability of events.

Chalk Talk: Preparing for College
As a teen prepares to head off to college, there are many ways that parent and teen can prepare for this time. First, parents need to encourage the teen to be independent while giving support. Help them to go through the steps needed to find answers, rather than supplying them all. Parents and teens need to realize that both are going to go through times of wanting the other close and wanting breathing space. Both need to keep in mind that this is normal. Parents can also set up time for the teen to spend time before going off to college with family and friends and to be there when they come home after saying goodbye to these acquaintances. Next, plan for the first day on campus. Parents and teen need to talk about plans, and the excitement that is going to be felt. Parents need to be prepared for the teen to feel ready for the parents to leave before the parents are ready.
