St. Luke Fifth Grade
2022 - 2023 Curriculum MAP
The following curriculum chart was created by the St. Luke teaching staff. It was developed for two main reasons. First, it is an internal document for curriculum planners and teachers to use as a means to verify that we are offering a variety of high quality learning experiences for all of our students and that the curriculum addresses all the state and Archdiocesan standards. Second, this curriculum map was designed with our students and families in mind. We believe the information presented on the following page(s) will be appreciated at home because it provides an “at-a-glance” reference regarding the subjects taught at St. Luke’s School. Please know that the information presented below is intended as an approximate plan and that it is subject to change. Exact due dates and assignments will be given at the classroom level. Social Studies and Science units will be taught through an IB (International Baccalaureate) PYP (Primary Years Programme) unit planner. Other content areas are also embedded so learning is transdisciplinary.
