Acceleration, Not Remediation
Acceleration, Not Remediation
Instead of focusing time on reteaching or remediating "gaps," OLG School teachers will focus on building connections between previous and current learning. Every standard builds in the next grade level. This is called vertical alignment and it means nothing is taught and then abandoned in isolation. To see how teacher will work previous knowledge into current instruction, follow one math standard from Kindergarten and see how it builds each year all the way to 8th grade.
