entrepreneurial literacy.

Lessons integrate a focus on civic literacy so that students can better

understand the rights and obligations of citizenship.

Learning advocates for health literacy as a critical component of a healthy

lifestyle and the ability to make good health-related decisions.

Students explore areas that support environmental literacy, including

society’s impact on the environment and what can be done to support

environmental solutions.

thinking processes, creative and critical

thinking activities, problem-solving, and

open-ended tasks

Self-regulated group interaction

Advanced pacing levels

Greater opportunities for freedom of

choice and independent study that

encourage independent and intrinsic

learning

Inquiry-based projects and assignments

Critical thinking and problem solving skills are a core component of learning

and assessment throughout this curriculum. Students are required, in each

unit, to advance their learning through all levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy to

address the evaluation, synthesis, and creation of products using learning at

the highest levels. Problem-solving is a recurring theme in the curriculum as

students must seek ways to creatively apply the concepts to solve problems

rather than simply remember the material.

Communication and collaboration is crucial for student success as learners.

Throughout this curriculum, students must be able to communicate deep

understanding through open ended responses (both orally and in writing). In

addition, students are often required to work collaboratively with their peers

which promotes the ability to succeed in the area of social cooperative work,

increases communication skills, and promotes leadership and responsibility.

Students must be information literate, i.e. they must be able to find and use

information effectively, in order to succeed in class as learning activities

require independent research of relevant information outside of the provided

textbook and/or resources.

In order to succeed in this course, students must be able to use technology as

a tool in order to research, organize, evaluate, and communicate information.

Activities in the curriculum help develop life and career skills in all students

by promoting flexibility and adaptability, requiring initiative and self-

direction in the learning process, supporting social and cross-cultural skills in

both content and teamwork efforts, and measuring productivity and

accountability through independent and group assignment completion.

English Language Arts/Literacy: Using “Problem Solving Reading Mat” before

each new topic, read about: Oceans of the Past; Nature’s Survivors; Company of

Wolves; Bats; Migrants and Residents; and Clouds of All Kinds. In math journal, list

any terms that are unfamiliar; write a questions you may have about the real-world

math topic; write a word problem based on the information provided in the “Problem

Solving Reading Mat”; or work with a partner to add an additional fact about the

topic as it relates to your community.

Science: Research Envision topics in the math and science projects pages regarding

producers and consumers. Write and solve decimal addition and subtraction problems

for the amounts of food the consumers need; estimate weekly water usage for various

household activities and organize data in a table.

Social Studies: Research populations in various towns in NJ or in different states.

Write these population numbers in expanded form.

Technical Subjects: Use a “Data Grapher” to illustrate data gather in the classroom

or school – number of students who buy lunch over a period of a week; number of

students who 1, 2, 3, etc. siblings; populations in different states. Make a visual

display for the classroom.

https://illuminations.nctm.org/Activity.aspx?id=4098

World Languages: Count to 10 (or more) in a different language (Spanish). Make

visual vocabulary cards to illustrate the word and its meaning.

Arts: Have students work in teams to put on short skits. Student will be digits, and

roles will be based on their place value. The higher their place values, the “older”

their character should act. The smallest place value should be the baby of the number

family. (Assign the “older” place values small digits, and the “younger” place values,

larger digits. This could spark the conversation that says a digit is only as valuable as

the place he resides!)

fractions having like denominators

Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers with accuracy and efficiency

Solve word problems involving adding or subtracting fractions with unlike denominators, and determine if the answer to the

word problem is reasonable, using estimations with benchmark fractions

Interpret a fraction as a division of the numerator by the denominator; solve word problems in which division of whole numbers

leads to fractions or mixed numbers as solutions

For whole number or fraction q, interpret the product (a/b) x q as a parts of a whole partitioned into b equal parts added q times

(e.g. using a visual fraction model)

Tile a rectangle with unit fraction squares to find the area and multiply side lengths to find the area of the rectangle, showing that

the areas are the same

Measure volume by counting the total number cubic units required to fill a figure without gaps or overlaps

Show that the volume of a right rectangular prism found by counting all the unit cubes is the same as the formulas V = l × w × h

Problem-solving is a recurring theme in the curriculum as students must seek ways

to creatively apply the concepts to solve problems rather than simply remember the

material.

Communication and collaboration is crucial for student success as learners.

Throughout this curriculum, students must be able to communicate deep

understanding through open ended responses (both orally and in writing). In

addition, students are often required to work collaboratively with their peers which

promotes the ability to succeed in the area of social cooperative work, increases

communication skills, and promotes leadership and responsibility.

Students must be information literate, i.e. they must be able to find and use

information effectively, in order to succeed in class as learning activities require

independent research of relevant information outside of the provided textbook

and/or resources.

In order to succeed in this course, students must be able to use technology as a tool

in order to research, organize, evaluate, and communicate information.

Activities in the curriculum help develop life and career skills in all students by

promoting flexibility and adaptability, requiring initiative and self-direction in the

learning process, supporting social and cross-cultural skills in both content and

teamwork efforts, and measuring productivity and accountability through

independent and group assignment completion.
