LITERACY

Students in kindergarten through third grade build their literacy skills on a strong foundation of phonics through the Fundations and Heggerty curricula.  They are engaged in authentic and rigorous writing units which include studies in the genre of narrative non-narrative, essay and opinion.  In Reading, students are reading in a range of genres including narrative, nonfiction and poetry.  They are growing their reading skills (comprehension and interpretation) by understanding character, themes, and setting.   

MATH

Our math curriculum is Pearson Investigations in Math, Data and Space.  This will support our students in building not only conceptual math understanding but also proficiency in mathematical practices. The goal is to prepare students to be able to reason and communicate mathematically by being flexible and strategic in their thinking.

SOCIAL STUDIES

Social Studies is an integral part of our curriculum, and we use the New York City Social Studies Scope and Sequence to guide our decisions about the content we teach. All grades have designed their own interdisciplinary social studies units of study that culminate in a project that's displayed at our schoolwide Curriculum Fair.
