Spruce Grove District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
In Spruce Grove, the curriculum that is used has been developed as a framework for teaching and learning across the province. It is a research and standards-based curriculum that provides measurable learning goals which constitute the basis of knowledge in each subject. This base of knowledge promotes the higher-order thinking skills that students will use as they progress academically. Students take part in various advanced courses, technology literacy classes, and multicultural experiences. Various trades-based programs are offered as well, as are career pathways that help students develop the skills they need to be employable after they graduate from high school.
We currently cover the following Spruce Grove-area school district: Parkland School Division, Evergreen Catholic Separate Regional Division.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Spruce Grove District Curriculum
The Language Arts curriculum helps students learn how to use the language in writing and how to comprehend written information of various types. Students work on vocabulary development and learn the rules of grammar; they also engage in exercises in which they identify and use synonyms and antonyms. Moving towards analytic work, the study of figurative and metaphorical language is undertaken and students learn how to recognize meaning from what they read. They also study different literary devices and learn how to navigate the text features found in genres from newspapers to literary anthologies.
The Math curriculum is designed to move students into advanced problem-solving abilities by high school. As part of the data analysis strand, students learn how to reason quantitatively and work with functions and learn how to build new functions from those that already exist. They also work with graphic representations of mathematical data and learn how to appropriately plot data in numerous types of graphs. High school students are able to study geometry and acquire the ability to perform operations like finding the area and volume of objects.

Chalk Talk: Preparing a Resume in High School
When students are juniors or early during their senior year, one of the tasks they need to undertake is to prepare a resume that they can use when applying to colleges or job opportunities. This can be daunting as a young person will have at most limited work experience, however they will have other experiences that can be highlighted on a formal resume. For instance, educational programs, workshops and extracurriculars tell an admissions officer or potential employer a lot about the persons' interests an abilities. Some categories students might try to add that they shouldn’t include travel and hobbies. It’s great that a student traveled, but what does that really tell an admissions committee? If the student traveled to do volunteer work, than that tells them a lot and should be included. Overall, the first resume should paint a picture of who the student is and what they can do.
