Curriculum Resources Review

We are selecting resources to support the delivery of revised curricula that are in process of  approval by the BOE in Spring, 2023.  Family input is also a crucial component in determining which resources are the best fit for our Elmbrook students.   Elmbrook staff has identified several recommended resources for instruction in the following courses/areas:

  • Accounting (Intro to Accounting & College Accounting)
  • Chinese
  • English Language Arts 4K-5, 6, 7, 8
  • French 1, 2, 3, 4 
  • German 3 & 4
  • Spanish 1, 2, 3, & 4

The resources being considered are listed below by each course.  Public digital access to explore the resources will be available from January 27 through February 5, 2023.   We will also host two sessions for any community member to explore the physical resources.  These sessions will be hosted on Thursday, February 2 from 10:30-12 and from 5:30-7:00 p.m..

As is true across all content areas, our classroom instruction is aligned with our Board approved curriculum documents, which are available on our district website.  Primary resources (external curricular materials) are not used in entirety in Elmbrook.  We review the prioritized resource to determine which components align with our approved curriculum, and leverage those components for instruction.
