| A process has been developed and defined so that each
subject area is assessed and revised every five years to ensure that
every curricular area is state of the art. Key to a standards-based
curriculum is the alignment of the standard with the most effective
instructional strategies, sometimes referred to as best practices,
and with a balanced approach to assessment using multiple forms and
types.
The goal of our new curriculum efforts is deeper understanding
and learning. The District believes it is important to focus on
big ideas; to focus on inquiry and "uncoverage" of concepts.
The goal is enduring understanding. |
