Staff report details grades K–12 curriculum, dual-credit and holiday plans
Summary
At the Echo SD 5 meeting a staff member, addressed as Luke, summarized K–12 classroom activities—from preschool letter work to high-school culinary finals—announced the elementary holiday concert and noted a five-day STEM experience that will count toward science grades.
Luke, a staff member who presented the monthly faculty report, outlined classroom activities across grades and upcoming events. He said, “I have a report this time,” and then described preschool lessons on the letters G and H and name-tracing activities. He summarized second-grade work on landforms, weather and cultures of the seven continents and noted students are practicing double-digit addition with regrouping and sequencing paragraphs.
In middle grades, Luke relayed that 3rd graders are being introduced to division using models and are learning to annotate text to improve comprehension, and that junior-high English students will write argumentative essays on funding for space exploration. For high school, he said the culinary arts class is starting a cake unit whose final will be the Tyler Campbell Memorial Cake Bake on January 9. Luke also noted that Spanish II students completed the Spanish 101 college-credit exam; students scoring 70% or better will earn four BMCC credits.
