Imhotep Academy | Co-Ed, K-8 Private School in Atlanta
Fourth graders at our school embark on a journey of discovery through a rich curriculum. In language arts, they strengthen reading comprehension and writing skills. Math challenges them with problem-solving and critical thinking. Science ignites curiosity about the world around them. Social studies bring history and cultures to life. They explore a new language, unleash their creativity in the arts, develop healthy habits, and discover the joy of music!
Students engage in a multi-level guided reading curriculum which allows them to develop as readers at their own pace. Teachers continuously
assess students in small groups to foster individual fluency and proficiency. Activities in the areas of grammar, vocabulary development, and research are implemented to connect disciplines. Frequent writing opportunities allow teachers to continuously assess students’ writing and prescribe differentiated writing instruction.
Teachers use Singapore Math as a primary resource for mathematics. Mathematical practices promote student success in mathematics. Students are exposed daily to math concepts including problem solving, math computation, reasoning, data analysis, measurement, and geometry. In addition, teachers use other resources to integrate technology and other disciplines.
The science curriculum provides a progressive program that covers a range of scientific topics and concepts. Students learn specific scientific concepts and progress through grade levels where concepts get more complex. Teachers provide instruction of scientific methods, procedures and processes supporting the students’ interests and enthusiasm.
Social studies encompasses a wide range of topics. Students engage in reading informational text. Reading levels gradually increase over the course of each grade level. Teachers use researched-based lesson plans with scaffolding and differentiated instruction so that all students succeed. Students are required to write about what they read, conduct additional research, and consider many points of view.
Students are encouraged to express themselves through the arts. Students will increase creativity and self-confidence through art related activities. In addition to specific art instruction, the arts are integrated throughout disciplines.
Promoting a healthy life-style is the goal of the health and physical education curriculum. Through health instruction and physical education, students develop body control, rhythm, flexibility and balance. Students are introduced to team sports, exercise, safety, nutrition and hygiene.

Social studies covers diverse topics, and foreign language exploration continues. Fine arts, band, and health/physical education promote creativity, music skills, and a healthy lifestyle.
Students engage in reading throughout disciplines. Students read informational and expository texts. Teachers ensure that students gain, evaluate, and present increasingly complex information, ideas and evidence through listening and speaking as well as through media. Lessons prepare students for real life experience preparing them for college and 21st century careers. Teachers recognize the importance of developing students to use formal English in their writing and speaking. Students must also be able to make informed, skillful choices among the many ways to express themselves through language.
