Curriculum Focus

the flow at vedanya

“Come to me as the rivers to the sea,

As the days and nights to the completion of their annual cycle.

Let our taking and imparting truth be full of the radiance of light.

Let us never come into conflict with one another.

Let our minds speed towards their supreme good.”

 

– excerpt from Rabindranath Tagore’s Shantiniketan

Individualised Progress review

Our Individualized Progress Review is an odyssey of exploration, a quest to uncover the essence of your child's being and embrace him for who he has come to be. Individualised Progress Review (for students in the Grades) contains three parts:

A Curriculum Overview; a Narrative; and Rubrics Curriculum Overviews, written by the class teacher and specialty teachers, outline the content of the subjects.

The Narrative Report, written by the class teacher, strives to give a complete and accurate description of the child personally, academically, and socially. The Student Description includes work habits, ability to listen and contribute, oral and written work, and rhythmic work. It may also describe highlights of the student’s year, areas of challenge, and artistic work. The Social Description includes the student in relationship to adults and to peers.

The rubrics give a succinct picture of the child's work in language arts, mathematics, and for the upper grades - all specialty subjects. Rubrics have an area for comments by class and specialty teachers.
