Focus On Inquiry
Inquiry-based learning is a process where students are involved in their learning by formulating questions, investigating widely through a variety of resources and mediums, then building new understandings, meaning and knowledge. At CLS we have created units of inquiry based on key essential questions that the teacher uses to guide the students. Through the inquiry process, our students are taught important critical thinking and problem-solving skills that will be the basis for all their learning.
Assessment
Assessment takes on many forms and our teachers use a variety of methods to check for understanding. Students are given several opportunities to show that they have learned through interviews, retelling, inventing, creating, describing, building, writing, showing, explaining, interpreting, analyzing, solving and so on. Through these varied avenues of assessment, teachers are able to see if students are meeting the curriculum outcomes or if they need more support and more time to succeed.
