Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Gates District Curriculum

Gates’ math students are expected to grasp the core concepts that guide all mathematics learning and thought beginning in the earliest grades. By middle school, students learn to estimate and compare the value of numbers having 3 digits or more. They form patterns that represent given rules and graph points on a coordinate plane from given ordered pairs. Students learn the location terminology and values for the place value system. As students move up to subsequent grades they are expected to further develop their understanding of problem solving, algebraic pattern recognition, and abstract thinking.

Gates’ English Language Arts students are expected to begin developing their ability to read closely and attentively in the earliest grades. Students then go on to develop literacy skills that they can apply to all subject areas. These skills include communicating verbally and in writing, critical thinking, research, and information sorting.

Chalk Talk: It’s a Matter of Style

Students who are successful in the higher grades and in college often find that success because they understand which style of learning best fits their needs. Most teachers rely on three major teaching methods that connect with three distinct learning styles: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Teachers may also combine these approaches as well. Now, of course, parents cannot force learning styles onto children, but they can be observant, and seek to understand the learning conditions under which their children thrive. Parents can do this by keeping track of how well children perform tasks in noisy environments versus how well they perform in quiet environments. Parents can also take note of how children process different kids of visual, textual, and audio information. By better understanding these things, parents can do their best to help children work in a learning style that best fits their needs.
