Orchard includes over 150 Skill Trees (programs) that cover thousands of essential skills and concepts in reading, writing, language arts, math, and science. All Orchard content is developed by experienced educators and is research based with proven results.
Orchard Learning’s content is used in tens of thousands of schools across the country. Orchard’s #1 priority is to help teachers help students master key skills stressed in textbooks and on standardized tests. Orchard uses the perfect blend of instruction with motivating activities and challenging games so that children of all ability levels benefit.
Orchard Software focuses on three essential areas:
- State-Specific Assessment – Orchard includes tests that are correlated to state standards. These assessments will determine the standards in which students need additional instruction and will create a personalized assignment for each child.
- Balanced Content – Each student’s assignment will consist of a variety of instructional approaches coupled with an effective use of games and puzzles. The content is challenging for advanced students while providing reinforcement skills for those who need it.
- Detailed Reporting – The Orchard Manager tracks each student’s progress with easy-to-understand reports, including student reports and parent summary reports. This simple yet powerful system is used to understand each child’s strengths and weaknesses and to adjust instruction to meet specific needs. You can easily stay involved in your students’ progress, performance, and overall education!
Every state has standardized tests that students often need to pass to be promoted. Orchard’s content is correlated to your state’s standards. With Orchard Software your students will have a significant advantage by receiving the correlated instruction they need to be successful in school and beyond.
