Instruction

The teachers of Queen of the Rosary recognize the importance of every student as an individual with unique learning needs. Teachers provide necessary instruction to accommodate these needs, ensuring that each student has the opportunity to experience success. Queen of the Rosary teachers accomplish this through a variety of methods.

Instruction is delivered in a variety of methods that incorporate Gardner’s multiple intelligences and Bloom’s Taxonomy. Students are encouraged to utilize various media for projects across multiple content areas. Technology is available to students and teachers through laptops, classroom computers, a computer lab, interactive white boards, interactive response systems for review sessions, podcasts, and an in-house television studio. Critical thinking skills are developed as students create podcasts and television shows. 

Collaboration with students, parents and other teachers is an integral part of success in differentiated instruction.

Teachers and teacher aides are available to support the students. Cooperative learning is demonstrated not only during the school day, but after school through programs such as Study Buddies in the lower grades and Peer Tutoring in the junior high. Additionally, students work with partners, as teams, and as individuals on projects, reports, homework, and problem solving.
