Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Flint Township District Curriculum
Students in Flint Township begin their academic career early in a preschool setting that strives to create a love of learning and an inquisitive mind. Once in elementary school, students are taught the basic skills of Reading, Writing, and Math. Some concepts covered include phonemic awareness, basic paragraph structure, and numeric operations. While the focus in elementary school is on these fundamental standards, students are also exposed to the content areas of Science and Social Studies. Topics which students learn about in include Michigan geography and holiday observances.
Students in middle school and high school continue to work in the core subjects; however they have the option to individualize these classes. Language Arts and Mathematics continue to be the main focus of an older student’s education with a concentration in Non-Fiction and Algebraic functions. Science and History offer students much more variety with choices such as Biology, European History, and Oceanography.

Chalk Talk: The Importance of Hands-On Learning
Hands-on learning involves activities in which students learn concepts by actively participating in an assignment or project. Some examples include building electrical circuits to explore electricity, baking a cake to learn measurements, or building a teepee to understand the Native American culture. This type of learning has repeatedly proven to be effective in allowing students to retain information and concepts. The reason it works so well is that the human brain attaches memory to movement better than it does sound. So, when a student builds the electrical circuit they create a physical memory of the concept versus just hearing a lecture or reading a textbook. Hands-on learning is also effective because it takes away barriers for certain students. If a student has a reading disability or language barrier, they can still learn difficult concepts by performing hands-on experiments or projects. The hands-on learning strategy can be used across grade levels and subjects to give all students the opportunity to participate and understand what is being taught.
