Reading/Language/Writing
Students will read from basal readers and trade books so that they will be exposed to a variety of literature. They will continue to write and create their own stories and ideas using correct grammar and structure. They will learn about dialogue, mood, purpose and viewpoint. Students will be assigned book reports, research papers, and creative writing and participate in discussions
Mathematics
Students will review addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of whole numbers, decimals, fractions, mixed numbers, and integers. Word problems and projects will be used to place math skills within a real world context. Students will lean about geometry, ratios/percents, graphing, equations, and number theory.
Social Studies
Students will learn geography, world history and civics through textbooks, projects, and current events. The historical contributions and experiences of African-Americans will be highlighted within these areas.
Science
Students will cover physical science, earth science, and life science through critiques and experimentation.
Christian Concepts
As students grow deeper in their knowledge of Christ, they will find ways of applying Christian teachings to their lives through service in the community and the mentoring of younger students.
