 Focus
For math, focus of this environment is to be able to provide thorough practice on each Math topic following the standards that you have come to expect from ATFS. Worksheets cover all aspects of the topic through various types of problems including word problems. The goal is not only to keep the students challenged and learning through the elementary and middle school years but also build a strong foundation for High School Algebra and Geometry. For English, the lessons have been designed for each grade level. Each spelling lesson includes 20 words and supporting exercises for the child to be able to memorize and absorb each spelling for a longer lasting memory. Vocabulary worksheets allow the children to understand meaning of the words and learn to develop sentences. Reading comprehension come with grade level stories and related questions. These workbooks may be customized to include cursive writing practice as well as Language Arts materials. Science materials have been sorted in theme units accompanied by corresponding worksheet collections.
