Curriculum

ESU 10 staff can provide the following supports:

  • Overview of curriculum design process
  • Facilitation of a process for curriculum mapping, pacing guides, and alignment to standards
  • Content area curriculum development and improvement
  • Work with individual teachers during planning periods to provide technical assistance
  • Other support as requested

Curriculum work that will truly improve student learning takes time. We recommend:

  • Allocating ample time for training and teacher work time, both in the summer and at least quarterly throughout the school year
  • Tackling each component in small, manageable pieces with sufficient work time to complete each step before moving on to the next
  • Connect curriculum to current district initiatives (i.e. Academic Literacy project, 1-to-1)
