Dryden District Curriculum Used in Our In-Home Tutoring Programs
The Ontario Curriculum is used in the public schools in Dryden. The curriculum describes the skills and knowledge requisite in each subject and then ties them to the underlying concepts that they foster. The curriculum is a framework that is used as an instructional tool to plan for teaching and learning. For example, the English curriculum describes the elements of reading and comprehending non-fiction so that students may develop critical and analytic thinking skills. Students who gain proficiency in the knowledge described in the curriculum will be prepared for future academic and career pursuits.
We currently cover the following Dryden-area school districts: Keewatin-Patricia District School Board and Northwest Catholic District School Board.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Dryden District Curriculum
In math, students will learn the fundamentals of algebra which will bring about problem-solving type thought. They begin by learning how to perform numerical operations with positive and negative integers, as well as fractions, decimals and percents. This gives them a foundation for the algebra, geometry and data analysis they will encounter in high school. Students acquire the skills to perform operations on vectors, and also learn how to represent and model with vector quantities. The ability to construct and use mathematical models is important and demonstrates students ability to extrapolate information.
In the social studies and history curriculum, students learn about the past as far back as ancient history and about how modern events have unfolded. The falls of Rome and Greece are studied in terms of the rise of feudalism in Europe. Students learn how the manorial system established certain families with a wealth of power while subjugating other families into feudal farming. Students also examine how the transition to feudalism gave rise to powerful monarchies and the establishment of churches throughout Europe.

Chalk Talk: Benefits of Extracurricular Activities
Getting your child involved in extracurricular activities will provide them with a host of academic, social, and emotional benefits. Students who participate in sports, clubs, and organizations learn valuable lessons in teamwork and communication. Conducting themselves in a respectful manner is an additional lesson that many students garner from participation in activities. There are many academic benefits as well. Time-management skills improve, helping students to stay focused on the task at hand. Being able to prioritize tasks is another benefit of participation in activities. Particularly for clubs that are creativity-based, students experience an expanded capacity for innovation and creativity. From a social perspective, extracurricular activities give students a chance to make new friends and interact with other students in different grades and from different schools. Studies also show that participation in activities is a great way to boost self-esteem and improve students’ self-confidence.
