Curriculum

A curriculum is available with each book. Each unit corresponds with a chapter of the book and includes Reading Comprehension, Journal Activities, Chapter Objective, Rigor and Relevance Activities, and Exploratory Activities. Coaching and question-asking is fundamental to each section. The curricula also include handouts, unit quizzes and keys, and PowerPoint presentations.

Fundamentally, we believe that this content should be reviewed and tested so that students can build their test-taking abilities and also improve their memory techniques. Without the teeth of testing, students can often disregard the class as non-academic.
