Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Somers District Curriculum
Somers schools’ English Language Arts instruction is based on a curriculum that encourages students to learn to read and comprehend a wide range of fiction and non-fiction texts. Once students have mastered reading and comprehension, they go on to develop the ability to research, critique, and communicate their ideas about the texts they read both verbally and through reflective and analytic writing.
Somers schools’ math instruction is based on a curriculum that requires students develop an understanding of core mathematics concepts in the earliest grades. Once students develop an understanding of core concepts such as numerations, pattern recognition, and abstract reasoning they begin to learn how to use those concepts to solve real-world problems. In all core courses, technology is integrated as a teaching and learning tool, allowing students to use educational software, conduct research, create digital media of their own work and learn about graphic design.

Chalk Talk: Talking with Your Child
Sometimes parents take their child’s learning difficulties personally. They see their child struggling in math or reading and wonder if they are somehow to blame. They wonder if they should have spent more time reading to their child, or more time going over flashcards. Parents need to remember that they weren’t doing equations and reading from birth. They had their own learning difficulties, now long forgotten. Of course, a parent who is dealing with a child who has learning difficulties should work with that child. However, working isn’t always enough. A parent also needs to talk to the child about the difficulties he or she is having. Letting a child know that struggling is normal, and that each person learns at a different pace will ease the child’s fears of failure and remind the child that he or she is not alone.
