Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Mineral Wells District Curriculum
Science helps students explore the world around them. This curriculum at Mineral Wells Independent School District shows students how science can be found everywhere from the animals and plants that surround them, to the tables, and toys in the classroom. They also learn about the make-up of each of these, including the cells and systems that are needed so the students can enjoy them. This information that the students learn help them to explore the world with knowledge of how it works.
Students learn geometry as a part of the mathematics curriculum. From their first year at school, students learn about the characteristics of basic shapes, such as squares, circles and triangles. As the students progress through the grades the shapes become more complex and they learn about perimeter, and capacity. When they graduate high school they will have found out how the size, shape, location, direction and orientation of shapes affect the way the figures appear.

SchoolTutoring Academy Increased My SAT Score By 200 Points
My son’s math marks in high school have always been weak so I found it very beneficial that his ACT tutor worked on solidifying his fundamentals while prepping for the ACT.
SchoolTutoring Academy gave my daughter the confidence she needed to boost her SAT score Thank you!
SchoolTutoring has played an important role in improving our son’s confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was able to improve her test scores after a few months of tutoring with SchoolTutoring. However, while raising test scores is great, the real payoff is in the self-confidence that she gained.
I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank-you! My son is very impressed with his tutor and looks forward to each session. What’s particularly amazing about this is our son has never really looked forward to math or school for that matter!
We are so happy with the results of your tutoring program and academic support. Homework time was such a stressful evening for the entire evening before we brought your tutors into our home. Thank you for all your help!
Our daughter, a first grader, struggled with basic reading and handwriting. When she began with SchoolTutoring she was almost a year behind her class. Within a year of being enrolled, she is reading above her grade level and has the confidence to match.

Chalk Talk: Reading Comprehension
Reading comprehension is a phrase that teachers like to use, but unless a parent knows what it includes, they may be unsure how to help their child in this area. This area includes learning how to decode figurative languages and the more oblique messages. Parents can help with this by having a young child use illustrations to help them with understanding. The child needs to consider facial expressions, how close one character is to others and the body language of the characters. While reading together, the parent can ask the child to express what they are seeing, before reading the text, then they can see if their predictions match the words on the page. To help with figurative language, parents can ask a child what a phrase like she has hair like silk brings to a child’s mind. What is the author trying to convey? Is there a color, an emotion, or intensity involved? Then see if the child can find examples of figurative language in books, or magazines? With these ideas, parents and children will grow in reading comprehension.
