Grade Alike Planning (GAP)A job embedded, structured planning framework that infuses key pieces to students educational experiences.

This tutorial explains the Grade Alike Planning (GAP) project and how to use it to find the resources you need for your Grade 4 to 9 teaching.

October is agriculture month and a time to highlight our connection to food and the role that agriculture plays in the lives of Saskatchewan people and our students! This year’s theme is #MealsFromtheFarm.

If you are interested in incorporating food or agriculture into your lessons this month, have your Grade K-1 students enjoy some fun and learning with this "Meals From The Farm" Kahoot!

Module 2 explores two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes.  Students learn about flat and solid shapes independently as well as how they are related to each other and to shapes in their environment.  Students begin to use position words when referring to and moving shapes.  Students learn to use their words to distinguish between examples and non-examples of flat and solid shapes.

After students observed, analyzed, and classified objects by shape into pre-determined categories in Module 2, they now compare and analyze length, weight, volume, and, finally, number in Module 3. The module supports students’ understanding of amounts and their developing number sense. The module culminates in a three-day exploration, one day devoted to each attribute: length, weight, and volume.

Module 4 marks the next exciting step in math for kindergartners, addition and subtraction! They begin to harness their practiced counting abilities, knowledge of the value of numbers, and work with embedded numbers to reason about and solve addition and subtraction expressions and equations. In Topics A and B, decomposition and composition are taught simultaneously using the number bond model so that students begin to understand the relationship between parts and wholes before moving into formal work with addition and subtraction in the rest of the module.

Kindergarten comes to a close with another opportunity for students to explore geometry in Module 6. Throughout the year, students have built an intuitive understanding of two- and three-dimensional figures by examining exemplars, variants, and non-examples. They have used geometry as a context for exploring numerals as well as comparing attributes and quantities. To wrap up the year, students further develop their spatial reasoning skills and begin laying the groundwork for an understanding of area through composition of geometric figures.

The following is a documents of writing supports with each grade and writing forms.

This is a year plan created using GAP resources that any teacher can take and use. This is intended for teachers new to teaching Grade Six, but can be used by any Grade Six teacher to offer ideas of what can be used to teach the content of the Grade Six curriculum. 

This resource was developed in Westcliffe School (Jennifer Loken with contributions from the rest of the staff) and is an excellent scope and sequence of the different writing expectations for each grade level.

This resource provides an overview of the grades 1-9 Scope and Sequence tracking of language study from the curriculum guide.
