Background Information

the Hyde School

In 1996, Joseph W. Gauld founded the first Hyde School in Bath, Maine in response to a system of education which he believed was failing its children because of conflicting priorities. His search for a new approach in education led to a program that valued attitude over aptitude, effort over ability, and character over talent. This emphasis creates a learning environment where students experience success with integrity, the kind of success that lasts a lifetime.

Gauld established the Hyde curriculum, based upon Five Words, rather than five subjects: Courage, Integrity, Leadership, Curiosity, and Concern; and he incorporated them into every facet of the program.

The school cherishes the idea that educational reform must begin with the family. Actually, the Family Education Program is what makes the Hyde education unique. The school believes that parents are the primary teachers and the home is the primary classroom. This work with families for more than 35 years has led the school to a number of discoveries.

One of Hyde‘s basic purposes is to develop character. This focus on character unleashes the deepest motivation in students‘self-discovery. The school helps students answer three questions:

Who am I?

Where am I going?

What do I need to do to get there?

Relationships built upon honesty and concern can also be key to helping students. Hyde has created a new student role, where students, parents, and faculty are required to help others achieve their best.

T oday, there are four Hyde Schools, including inner-city models in New Haven, Connecticut and Washington DC, national programs for parents and teachers, and a number of established partnerships with public schools throughout the country.

Unit Three

T eaching Plan

Time allotment

Section A Where Principles Come First Teaching objectives:

1.To help the students understand the main idea and grasp the structure of the texts;

2.To help the students grasp the key language points and grammatical structures

1: What does the Hyde school see its main job as when educating children?

2: How does the Hyde School achieve this goal?

3: How important are the parents in Hyde’s goal in respect of children?

Global Reading

1. Text Analysis:

Part One: when we come up to the article the title of the text brings us the question : what are the principles? Part one is made up of paragraph 1 and paragraph 2, which tells us the principles of Hyde school.

Part Two:this part is from para.3 to para.11 giving us the information about the public attitude toward the principles of Hyde school.

Part Three: it is composed of four paragraphs, from para.12 to para.16, which explains the uniqueness of Hyde School principles and their influence on the students as well as their parents.

Part Four: this is the last part of the text, from para.17 to para.20, the Hyde School principles are proved to be beneficial to the teachers as well as students.

2. Devices for developing the text

1) Question and answer technique

While reading the passage, the reader would naturally ask himself some questions as a way of predicting what is to follow. If what follows is just the answer to the question in the reader’s mind, then comprehension continues. If what follows is not the answer to the question, the reader would alter his prediction and put in the right
