Curriculum Mapping (Basics)
Charting the Course for Your Standards-Based Curriculum

Attend this practical, highly-informative training to learn how to “unwrap” the performance objectives of the state standards and “map” the critical knowledge and skills that teachers must teach and students must learn during the academic year. See how the collaborative curriculum mapping process helps teachers and administrators communicate effectively between and across grade levels – ensuring horizontal and vertical articulation. This workshop will provide you with the “know how” to initiate or enhance curriculum mapping work in your school or district. It will also offer solutions to commonly experienced challenges faced by schools involved with mapping. Specific topics include:

• Determining how curriculum mapping helps create the state-required standards-based curriculum
• Demonstrating the “steps” to creating a basic map
• Planning for the campus-wide process of curriculum mapping
• Addressing challenges and barriers related to the mapping process

If creating or improving your standards-based curriculum is a high priority for your school or district, don’t miss this engaging workshop!
