Elementary curriculum

Maple Bear has developed an excellent, hands-on, rigorous, and relevant elementary curriculum in each subject area, based on the highly successful Canadian approach to learning and instruction. Maple Bear encourages the development of children’s foundational skills in literacy, numeracy, science, technology, analysis, problem-solving, information processing, and computing. Critical and creative thinking skills are promoted to ensure that children can succeed in today’s world. The Elementary Program is designed to educate the whole child—physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially.

The Maple Bear Elementary Programs require a minimum of 40% instruction in English, while the remaining portion is conducted in French and Arabic. Subjects taught in English include English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Physical Education, and the Arts.

English Language Arts

At all grades, the focus is on acquiring language and literacy skills through listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Students learn to read and produce a wide range of texts, including media, transactional (letters, e-mails, etc.), and tertiary texts. The level of sophistication grows with the advancing grade levels. All classrooms must be literacy-rich environments.

Mathematics

The themes of number sense and numeration, measurement, geometry and spatial sense, patterning and algebra, data management and probability are developed in increasing complexity at each grade level. The program emphasizes problem solving, understanding concepts, application of procedures, and communication about mathematics.

Science

The science program emphasizes inquiry and the use of the scientific method in science classes. At each grade level, increasingly complex topics are studied from the fields of biology, physics, chemistry, and environmental science. The emphasis is on experimentation and application rather than memorization.

Maple Bear schools offer comprehensive programs using the Canadian methodology from early childhood. We take our responsibility to our students and their parents very seriously. Strict quality controls ensure that we apply Canadian best practices in education.
