The Learning Common ACADEMICS & EXTRACURRICULARS

Curriculum Progressive

[Show definition of Curriculum]

Central to your child's school experience is the underlying curriculum taught in the classroom. "Curriculum" refers to both what is taught and how it's taught. When considering the different curricula outlined in the next few pages, keep in mind that few schools fall neatly into one category or another. Most schools' curricula comprise a blend of best practices drawn from multiple curriculum types. Having said that, most schools do have a general overall curriculum type. These are identified for each school on OurKids.net.

Curriculum approach at The Learning Common: Progressive

The Learning Common has a Progressive approach to Curriculum (as opposed to Traditional, Liberal Arts, Montessori, Reggio Emilia, Waldorf approach).

[Show: About Progressive?]

Our Kids definition: Progressive (sometimes called "in- quiry-based") curricula attempt to place children's interests and ideas at the heart of the learning experience. Instead of lessons being driven by predetermined pathways, progressive curricula are often "emergent", with learning activities shaped by students' questions about the world. Instead of starting with academic concepts and then tying it to everyday experience, progressive methods begin with everyday experience and work back to an academic lesson. Teachers provide materials, experiences, tools and resources to help students investigate a topic or issue. Students are encouraged to explore, reflect on their findings, and discuss answers or solutions.

  • Mathematics

    Equal Balance

    Mathematics approach at The Learning Common: Equal Balance

    The Learning Common has an Equal Balance approach to Mathematics (as opposed to Traditional Math, Discovery Math approach).

    [Show: About Equal Balance?]

    Our Kids definition: These math programs feature an equal balance of “Traditional” and “Discovery” methods.

    Compare The Learning Common's Mathematics with other schools on OurKids.net:
      Equal balance - 70%
      Traditional math - 25%
      Discovery math - 5%

    What The Learning Common says:

    At The Learning Common, we use multi-sensory teaching methods that effectively help learners to process and retain information. We believe in moving from the basic to complex learning objectives and have students master foundational and fundamental skills in numeracy. We provide opportunities for students to make real world connections and learn about concepts that they will be using outside the classroom. We are proponents of STEAM and STEM education and have dedicated a full day of STEAM and STEM learning each week.

    Textbooks and supplementary materials:

    We use JUMP math, and Orton-Gillingham based strategies within our math curriculum.

    Calculator policy:

    We do not have a calculator policy. They will be used in circumstances where required and based on needs of the students.

  • Early Reading

    Phonics-intensive

    Early Reading approach at The Learning Common: Phonics-intensive

    The Learning Common has a Phonics-intensive approach to Early Reading (as opposed to Whole Language, Balanced Literacy approach).

    [Show: About Phonics-intensive?]

    Our Kids definition: Systematic-phonics programs teach young children to read by helping them to recognize and sound out the letters and syllables of words. Students are then led to blend these sounds together to sound out and recognize the whole word. While other reading programs might touch on phonetics (either incidentally or on a “when needed” basis), systematic phonics teaches phonics in a specific sequence, and uses extensive repetition and direct instruction to help readers associate specific letter patterns with their associated sounds.

    Compare The Learning Common's Early Reading with other schools on OurKids.net:
      Phonics-intensive - 44%
      Whole language - 2%
      Balanced literacy - 54%

    What The Learning Common says:

    At The Learning Common, we are trained in the methods and strategies found within the Orton-Gillingham based approach. Over the last 3 years, we have taught many learners to read and write using the multi-sensory, direct teaching approaches, and systematic scope and sequence found in Orton-Gillingham. This remedial literacy approach helps to teach the fundamentals of language and is incredibly effective.

    DIBELS Testing: This school does not use DIBELS testing to assess reading progress.

    [Show: About Systematic approach?]

    Our Kids definition: The systematic approach to teaching beginner writing focuses on directly imparting explicit sentence construction strategies, along with planning, revising, and editing skills. Students are asked to learn these explicit strategies and skills and practice them before applying them in more holistic writing assignments. Grammar and parts of sentences tend to have a central role in systematic writing instruction.

    Compare The Learning Common's Writing with other schools on OurKids.net:
      Systematic approach - 9%
      Process approach - 12%
      Equal balance - 79%

Curriculum Pace approach at The Learning Common: Student-paced

The Learning Common has a Student-paced approach to Curriculum Pace (as opposed to Standard-enriched, Accelerated approach).

[Show: About Student-paced?]

Academic Culture Supportive

[Show definition of Academic Culture]

Through the collective mindset of teachers, administrators, students, and parents, each school develops and maintains its own academic culture. This generally relates to the norms and expectations created around academic performance. Many parents look to private schools because they want a specific type of culture. Some want a rigorous environment that will elevate their child to new heights. Others want a nurturing environment that will help their child develop a passion for learning.

Academic Culture approach at The Learning Common: Supportive

The Learning Common has a Supportive approach to Academic Culture (as opposed to Rigorous approach).

[Show: About Supportive?]

Our Kids definition: A school with a “supportive” academic culture focuses more on process than short-term outcomes: academic performance is a welcomed side-benefit, but not the driving focus. This does not mean the school lacks standards, or has low expectations for its students: a school can have a supportive academic culture and still light the fire of ambition in its students. It does mean, however, the school provides a less intensive culture than schools with a “rigorous” academic classification, and is focused more simply on instilling a love of learning and life-long curiosity.

Compare The Learning Common's Academic Culture with other schools on OurKids.net:
  Supportive - 50%
  Rigorous - 50%

What The Learning Common says about their academic culture:

Our academic culture is student-centred. We teach learners the hard and soft skills necessary for navigating a future of life-long learning where they will have to create their own value in the world. As educators, we inspire ideas and nurture creativity and innovation, however, we want students to gain autonomy over their educational experience and journey.

Developmental priorities Balanced

[Show definition of Developmental priorities]

Schools have specific goals regarding how they want their educate and develop their students. This is part of a school's overall philosophy or vision, which is contained in its mission statement. While they tend have several developmental aims, schools tend to priortize certain aims, such as intellectual, social, spiritual, emotional, or physical development.

Primary Developmental Priority: Balanced

Equal emphasis is placed on a balance of priorities: intellectual, emotional, social and physical cultivation.

Secondary Developmental Priority: Intellectual

The goal is to cultivate "academically strong, creative and critical thinkers, capable of exercising rationality, apprehending truth, and making aesthetic distinctions."

What The Learning Common says about their developmental priorities:

Extracurricular Activities

While academics remain the priority for most private schools, many also place a strong focus on a well-rounded education and encourage participation in extracurricular activities such as sports, music, arts, or clubs. Involvement in extracurriculars helps stimulate students in their studies, makes them more motivated to learn, and can make school more enjoyable and fulfilling. Extracurricular activities can also provide students with a much-needed break from the stresses of academics, while helping them to develop skills and allowing them to take part in valuable social situations.
