Windham District and Curriculum

Windham Public Schools follow the Common Core Standards of curriculum. At the Barrows STEM Academy however, there is a strong emphasis on science and technology, preparing the brightest for a future in a technological world. At the academy, teachers focus on an inquiry based learning style. This provides the opportunity for students to discover and learn using problem solving processes. Instead of having information handed to them in a traditional lecture style, they are asked to discover the information themselves.

We currently cover the following Windham-area school district: Windham Public Schools.

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Windham District Curriculum

Within the Common Core standards, an importance is placed on literacy starting as early as kindergarten. Students are not just taught how to read but also vocabulary, writing, speaking, and critical reading skills. These skills translate into all areas of a student’s life beyond their English classroom. In science, these reading skills provide the needed ability to be able to read and interpret scientific meaning and develop critical conceptual understanding.

In Mathematics, fewer topics are taught in a given school year. This allows teachers and students ample time to not just teach a topic, but be able to delve deeper into understanding. This gives students a chance to internalize the content before building upon it in the next topic. The Common Core seeks to educate students in such a way that they are ready to compete globally in all aspects of life. Students are taught to investigate and ask questions and develop their knowledge in science and technology but also in world languages and culture.

Chalk Talk: Fair Homework Expectations

Amazingly, as young as kindergarten, students all over the world are asked to spend eight hours in a classroom every day only to then bring home another hour or more of homework. Parents must then carve out this time after their own long day to ensure that their child completes their homework. But to what purpose? If you spent eight hours working and then your boss asked you to spend your own time repeating your work at home, most would be pretty upset and demand an end to the overtime. Why then is it okay to ask our little ones to work, work, work with no end in sight. Homework should be well-considered assignments and for the littlest ones combine skills with fun activities. Young children will always need down time to just be kids and play.
