Language workshop, a program of grammar worksheets. When the third-block bell rings, Christopher heads to accelerated math with Mr. Ritchie. He teaches basic skills to students using Dell laptop computers. The students take assessment tests on pre-algebra, algebra and geometry. They each work independently and if they run into problems I can help them or they help each other.
Students work independently, running their answer cards through a scanner in the back of the room.
They get immediate feedback and new exercises to address problems they answer incorrectly. It's an outcome-based product. He and fellow teachers appreciate Dr. Hayes' enthusiasm for the new classes. The software and teachers were carefully chosen, according to Dr. Hayes. The two schools follow the same program but operate differently.
