A computer analyzes the tests and provides a report on each student for the teacher. The computer generates lessons and worksheets based on the student's individualized needs. It also gives students an opportunity to move ahead if they're beyond grade level. At Elm Grove, a grant is funding a school book club. The first 20 to 22 students who return permission slips get to attend the next book club meeting.
Participants enjoy activities, games and refreshments related to the book.
Grant funds pay for 10 copies of the book and meeting supplies. It also makes that book special to them. It encourages reading. Students chart the daily growth of vegetables. They're going to learn to associate things in nature with real number patterns and see that math underlies a lot of science and processes in the world.
