  • We are supplementing our ELA time with the program Raz-Kids.This is an i-Pad based program that gives students access to books on their level and pushes students in their reading comprehension while tracking growth and progress.
Math:
  • We are using Bob Jones’ University Press for our math curriculum. This curriculum promotes critical thinking, hands-on learning, and conceptual understanding of mathematics to ensure that students understand the basics of mathematics and develop strong numeracy skills.
  • Math practice is being supplemented with the online learning program Zearn. This program allows students to receive individualized lessons and math games to fit their learning needs.
Science:
  • For science we are using a curriculum from Bob Jones’ University Press. This curriculum allows students to explore the world through the lens of God as creator and to uncover how intricately our universe was created.
  • We use supplementary material from Generation Genius so students can participate in hands-on experiments connected to the material we are learning.
