Conshohocken District and Curriculum
Students from Colonial School District receive information based on the learning model entitled Understanding by Design. In this system there is an emphasis placed on greater understanding on the bigger concepts and goals instead of just the individual steps or pieces of information. Students are also encouraged to improve critical thinking skills and are given many opportunities to work on projects independently and collaboratively so they develop the necessary academic independence along with an ability to work with others.
We currently cover the following Conshohocken-area school district: Colonial School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Conshohocken District Curriculum
There are students within the district who do not speak English as their first language. These students are taught through an ESL teacher who come into their classrooms and works with them individually on current classroom material so that they do not fall behind in their studies. The goal is to help these students learn to use English effectively and be able to participate in class and pass academic standards for their various grades.
Students in middle and high school build on what they have learned throughout elementary school. High school math focuses on algebra, geometry, and statistics. There is an increasing effort to tie these different courses to other topics such as technology, graphic design, and financial literacy that help students see math’s functions. These students are able to take world languages, honors or advanced classes in core subjects such as math and English, and study other electives such as the arts, graphic design, computer programming, business technology and many others.

Chalk Talk: How to Use Word and Name Mnemonics for Memorization
There are so many “tricks” out there for memorization. One of them is a Name Mnemonic; another similar one is a Word Mnemonic. Both of these take a word (in some cases a name) and use each letter to signify one of the things you must remember. One of the most famous of these is Roy G. Biv, which is the acronym for the colors of the rainbow. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet are all accommodated in order. You can also use a name, and some people even use a sentence in which the first letter of each word has significance. In either case, you can formulate your list of things that must be memorized and look carefully to find a creative name or word to tie them all together. Once that is done, if you need a visual you can imagine or draw that person or word in such a way that it relates to the set of information you are memorizing. This will jog your memory even further and take the mnemonic to a whole different level and effectiveness.
