Sheridan District and Curriculum
The Sheridan School District follows a comprehensive instructional plan that has been developed in a progressive fashion, moving students through an ever-deepening path of learning in all core subjects. The curriculum specifies what students need to know and be able to do each year, but does so in broad terms so that teachers can deliver the lessons according to the learning requirements and styles of their students. There are also opportunities to integrate different subjects so that students are able to apply their knowledge broadly and see how it connects and is relevant in the real world.
We currently cover the following Sheridan-area school district: Sheridan School District.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Sheridan District Curriculum
Early math instructs students in fundamental concepts of numeracy, pattern recognition, shape recognition and measuring techniques. Students learn to add and subtract whole numbers, decimals, and fractions with the same denominator. In the beginning of middle school, students expand these skills up to billions for whole numbers, and thousandths for decimals. They learn to add and subtract decimals as well and review simple multiplication and division skills.
By high school, the math expectations take on a new level of complexity. Students are expected to take full year courses in algebra and geometry and learn in-depth techniques for problem-solving in each topic. They are expected to master algebraic expressions, work with different types of equations, and to be able to apply formulas to solve more complex problems. They are also expected to develop math literacy, be able to work with word problems, and to communicate their math thought.

Chalk Talk: Learning Over the Summer
Students are worked hard throughout the year, and the learning expectations placed on them are becoming increasingly rigorous. Summertime offers a needed respite, but should also be well planned for so that children are engaged in activities that are both interesting and valuable to them. Most communities offer different types of summer camps - traditional, arts based, science and technology camps, and many outdoor learning experiences. Some students may not want to go to camp and for them, looking for other opportunities - volunteering at an animal shelter or community organization - can build skills that will help them in the long run and give them a sense of what the professional world is like. The options that students pursue should be based on their true interests and allow them a chance to explore new areas of learning.
