Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Englewood District Curriculum
The Common Core State Standards provide guidance as to the skills and knowledge students should acquire in their math and language arts classes. The New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards govern learning targets in science, social studies, 21st Century life and careers, technology, world languages, visual and performing arts, and health and physical education.
Students at all grade levels are required to demonstrate proficiency in the areas of reading, writing, speaking and listening. In elementary school, students acquire the skills they need to become excellent readers. Students are required to demonstrate understanding of key words and phrases, identify central characters in a story and examine the theme, setting and plot of stories. Students learn to make inferences based upon their reading, cite evidence to support analysis of what a text says and analyze differing points of view of a story’s characters. In high school, students continue to expand on their reading skills by analyzing theme development over the course of a story.

Chalk Talk: The Great Homework Debate
Homework is viewed by many as an important part of education. It teaches self-discipline, time management and other essential life skills. Above all, some argue, it teaches kids how to “suck it up” and complete work that may or may not be interesting or engaging to them – a great preparation for future careers. However, there is a growing movement in the education community to get rid of homework altogether. Members of this movement argue that homework impedes kids’ social time with family and friends, reduces creativity and takes all the joy out of learning. Furthermore, proponents of no homework point out that no study has ever found a correlation between homework and academic achievement. As reforms in education are continually made, homework might be one thing that will soon be a thing of the past.
