Sixth Grade REACH
|
This year will be the first year we are able to offer humanities in sixth grade. The district has defined humanities as the study of history through art, literature and music. The Arizona State Standards for sixth grade social studies cover world history from the beginnings of civilization through the Age of Enlightenment. While this is a great period of time it lends itself to many wonderful, interesting, and fun projects.
The standards are taught in a manner so that gifted students can learn in their own individual way. As a project based class, students construct their own knowledge through projects that require critical and creative thinking skills. REACH humanities meets everyday. The humanities class is for students identified as gifted in place of the regular social studies class. |
