High Quality Instruction School and classroom practice MUST CHANGE
House Bill 1:Model Curriculum …the state board shall adopt a model curriculum… The model curriculum shall be aligned with the standards, to ensure that the academic content and skillsspecified for each grade level are taught to students, and shall demonstrate vertical articulation and emphasize coherence, focus, and rigor. (Adopted March 2011) ORC §3301.079(B)
Goals of Model Curricula To help teachers: Reach a shared understanding of the intent of the Common Core and revised standards Provide differentiated instruction fordiverse learners Find resources that match higher expectations and support technological applications
Progressions– these statements provide educators with a general description of the content students had prior to that grade band and the content students are expected to master in the next grade band. MODEL CURRICULUM Standard Statements • Content Elaborations – Information for the teacher designed to clarify and extend understanding of the content standards. Content elaborations are specific to topics and grade/grade bands. • Enduring Understanding – Jay McTighe (Understanding by Design, 1998) developed this definition, enduring understandings provide a larger purpose for learning the targeted content, and they implicitly answer the question, “Why is this topic worth studying?”
Instructional Strategies – Suggestions of research based instructional methods that can be used to address the content standards and topics. • Instructional Resources – Materials (print and nonprint) designed for use in instruction or to provide professional development/ enrichment that address the content standards. • Technology– ideas for authentic and ethical use of technology and multimedia tools to increase content understanding as well as enhance productivity and communication for both students and classroom teachers. MODEL CURRICULUM • Diverse Learners--ideas for adapting instruction and content to meet the needs of all students.
Model Curricula Components • Content Elaboration • Detailed information on the content and skills addressed at a grade level, grade band and course • Expectations for Learning • Recommendations for how students may be evaluated • Applies only to science and social studies
Model Curricula Components • Instructional Strategies and Resources • Guidance and support for instructional, curricular and assessment design • Links to resources for diverse learners • Content Specific Sections • Address elements specific to a subject area, such as • Misconceptions (science and mathematics) • Enduring Understandings (English language arts and social studies)
Model Curricula 774Model Curricula have been developed across all four content areas: • A model curricula for each cluster in mathematics for grades K-12 • A model curricula for each topic in English language arts for grades K-12 • A model curricula for each content statement in science and social studies for grades PreK-12
Other Instructional Supports • Crosswalks/Comparative Analysis Documents • Formative Instruction Modules • Eye of Integration • Instructional Improvement System
