Curriculum
At Mountain Island Elementary we are a STEM school. This means that we have a focus on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. We are lucky enough to have both a technology and a science lab which are led by very knowledgeable teachers in their specialty area. We also emphasize hands on learning in the regular classroom.
Literacy: We follow a Balanced Literacy approach. This has a strong emphasis on students reading on their ability level. The students will be assessed in September and they will be assigned a Just Right Book level.
Math: Our math curriculum is Investigations. It is a child centered approach to math that includes games and interactive activities.
