SC1 and SC2 use an adapted curriculum called enCore! There are a total of 36 units, and those units are banded by grade levels. All our classes have multiple grade levels. Due to this, some classes might use two units simultaneously. For example, a class might use a unit for kindergarten through second and a different unit for grades third through fifth. Each unit consist of an adapted fiction book and an adapted nonfiction book. It takes six weeks to complete one full unit with three weeks per book.

Last week we welcomed students back to school. We played introduction games, did scavenger hunts around the building, and practiced classroom routines. We reintroduced the importance of safety drills along with practicing for the drills.

This week SC1 and SC2 will begin working with the enCore fiction stories. The units are: The Princess and the Pea and The Velveteen Rabbit. During these units, we will work on reading comprehension with picture cues, sequencing a story with picture cues, and identifying letters.

In math we will be working with counting to 10 and making sets to 10.

In Science we will be learning about the difference between plants and animals.
