Sudbury District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
In Sudbury’s schools, the curriculum used is the Ontario Curriculum. This is a framework for each academic and elective subject and the knowledge central to the subject is described and the thinking skills that students will develop are detailed. In laying out the curriculum in this manner, the province provides students the framework for learning to the highest possible standards so that students are prepared for their future pursuits. The knowledge and thinking skills which support literacy and math abilities are described in the Ontario Curriculum and are the topics students are tested on in standardized proficiency tests.
We currently cover the following Sudbury-area school districts: Rainbow District School Board and Sudbury Catholic School District Board.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Sudbury District Curriculum
The mathematics and English language arts curricular frameworks are emphasized during the elementary years and is the basis for the standardized tests given throughout the province. The curriculum for English has been designed to support learning across all subjects. Students read both fiction and non-fiction, learn analytic decoding skills, develop an appreciation for media as text, acquire skills in personal and objective writing, and gain an awareness of other cultures and perspectives through the literature they read.
Social Studies and History learning is also emphasized and used to introduce students to the important time periods throughout human history. This includes the study of the Neolithic or Agricultural Revolution to the present time. It also develops a sense of different civilizations throughout history, which can tie each of the students from today to those around the world, and throughout time. This is also an area in which students develop many of their research skills.

Chalk Talk: Credit Cards and Teens
There are times when giving a teen a credit card can give a peace of mind to parents and the teen. There are things to keep in mind, though. First, teens need to understand how to stay in a budget. They should understand the difference between needs and wants, plus not charging more than they can pay off at one time. Prepaid credit cards or debit cards can help the teen to gain experience with some of the concepts without the risks. Parents may want to make the teens spendable money a part of the card balance. Finally, parents need to make sure to stay involved with their teens while giving them independence.
