Curriculum
What We Teach
The Dayton SMART Elementary curriculum gives students a solid foundation in core academics for academic success. Our curriculum is designed to enhance students to question, discover, participate, and learn more about the world around them in a safe welcoming environment which develops their analysis, evaluation, and critical thinking skills; all important in academic success. Students are also encouraged to participate in active learning activities that encourage social concepts, along with community involvement and global understanding.
SCIENCE – Science Fusion
Science Fusion encourages students to fully engage with the fundamental steps of science: inquiring, thinking, predicting, analyzing, and applying. Students will think critically and use their reasoning skills as they learn new content, applying what they’ve learned to online content, activities, and labs.
