At Talbot Elementary academics are a top priority. Our faculty and staff provide a challenging environment that supports all types of learners. All of the curricula is based on Florida's Next Generation Sunshine State Standards and Common Core Standards.
Florida's State Standards in reading are addressed through Reading Street from Scott Foresman, the district adopted core reading program for elementary students. Teachers supplement this program with Scientific Research Associates, Inc. (SRA), Reading Mastery, Early Interventions in Reading, and other children's literature. A 90 minute uninterrupted block is set aside each day to address reading instruction. Literacy centers, guided reading, direct instruction and small group instruction are methods used to deliver reading instruction in the classrooms.
My Math from McGraw-Hill serves as the basis for our math program. Calendar Math is used as a supplement.
State Standards in Science are addressed through the use of the Florida Science material by Houghton-Mifflin.
Florida Social Studies by McGraw-Hill provides the core for our social studies program.
