Lander District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
The Wyoming Content and Performance Standards guide instruction in the Fremont County Schools and are made up of rigorous frameworks that detail the learning objectives of each subject. The Common Core is used for Math and Language Arts objectives, and the frameworks for other subjects follow similar models of focusing on major topics and detailing the goals that students should meet in each. Beyond academics, students are also exposed to learning about character education and community service so that they have strong interpersonal and collaborative skills to support their academic knowledge.
We currently cover the following Lander-area school district: Fremont County School District 1.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Lander District Curriculum
The Math curriculum is built around strands that cover the topics of numeracy and operations, algebra, geometry, data analysis, and advanced math functions. In geometry, students begin with simple shape awareness before progressing to topics of area and learning how to determine area in odd shaped objects. By high school, they are able to apply this to trigonometry, geometric measurement and dimensionality, and modeling with geometric principles.
The Language Arts curriculum emphasizes reading, writing, spoken communication, and critical listening. Students read texts from literary works, popular books, newspapers, online media, and research resources to learn the different analytic skills to apply to each type of genre. They also write a great deal, often using the texts they are reading as a springboard to analytic writing. By integrating these two subjects, students are able to see how authors organize and present ideas and are able to develop their own voice in writing as well.

Chalk Talk: Parental Involvement
Parental involvement is always discussed as being one of the keys to academic success for children, but it is important that the involvement is well suited to the parent so that it is most effective for everyone involved. Parents will always ask their children about their days, and that's a primary step in engaging about their education, but beyond that activities such as joining PTO's, advisory committees, chaperoning field trips, and getting involved in school day events is the next step. This has to be based on the parents schedule - many groups that support the schools meet in the evenings, which is ideal for working parents; other parents who need to be at home in the evening, may find that going into a classroom once a week and reading with students is the perfect fit for their schedule. Whatever it is, make sure it's something that you have time for and are able to commit to, and most importantly, enjoy doing!
