Masters Preparatory School - East Hialeah

Masters Preparatory School Curriculum

Grades K-5 - Houghton Mifflin English, Language Arts and Social Studies

Strengthen your students' writing and promote independence with Houghton Mifflin English. Developmentally appropriate lessons concentrate on grammar, usage, and mechanics skills, as well as 6-traits writing. Comprehensive instructional and planning tools provide lesson objectives and teaching language that focuses on instruction, practice, and application.

Grades K-5 - GoMath!

GO Math! is a focused program designed to meet the objectives and intent of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. The author team for GO Math! consists of mathematics educators and school district personnel and includes representation from the leadership of NCTM. The team's balance between state and national perspectives as well as the team's research expertise and practical experience makes GO Math! both accessible and mathematically sound.

GO Math! was specifically written to provide thorough coverage of the CCSS with an emphasis on depth of instruction. Particular attention was given to providing support for teachers as they transition to a focused, rigorous curriculum. These efforts are apparent in the ways lessons begin with context???????based situations and progress toward more abstract problems. Students and teachers are supported as they advance from concrete to abstract content through the use of models and math talk prompts presented in the Student Editions, and sample questions provided in the Teachers Editions. The program is designed so that teachers can easily create the environments necessary for teaching the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics with depth without having to develop new materials.

Grades K-5 - Science Fusion

ScienceFusion gives students a meaningful way to interact with science. Every click, every page turn, every lab and activity is an opportunity for students to ask questions, think critically, and make informed decisions. In any direction a student turns, they will be asked to inquire, think, predict, analyze, and apply. These skills are the foundation for success in science, in school, and in life.

With ScienceFusion, your students do much more than read about science concepts. At every moment, they use their curiosity, as well as their reasoning skills, to discover, interact, and apply what they've learned. Traditional science programs fail to connect the learning that occurs when a student uses a textbook, goes online, or performs a lab. Students learn content, but are unable to apply what they have learned. This is where ScienceFusion breaks the mold and delivers a holistic science experience, based on inquiry and application across print, digital, and hands-on resources.
