• The subject matter that teachers and students cover in their studies. It describes and specifies the methods, structure, organization, balance and presentation of the content. www.iteawww.org/TAA/Glossary.htm

• (plural curricula): A plan of instruction that details what students are to know, how they are to learn it, what the teacher’s role is, and the context in which learning and teaching will take place. www.ncrel.org/sdrs/areas/misc/glossary.htm

• Curriculum is what students should know, be able to do, and be committed to (content), how it is taught (instruction), how it is measured (assessment), and how the educational system is organized (context). www.educ.state.ak.us/tls/frameworks/arts/8glosary.htm

There can be three kinds of curricula:• Desired Curriculum• Actual Curriculum (what is taught)• Achieved Curriculum (what students have

learned)

In our presentation, we will use the term curriculum to refer to the content and skills taught in a class

to achieve the standards.

Big Ideas andBig Ideas and Essential Questions Essential Questions

• Big Ideas and Essential Questions are organizers that serve as the heart of a curriculum.

• Big Ideas and Essential Questions distill the content into what is critical to examine, explore, and learn.

• Big Ideas and Essential Questions identify the knowledge, skills, and attitudes for which students will be held accountable.

• Big Ideas and Essential Questions help teachers to organize their teaching.

ActivityActivityLet’s Practice

Grade 1: Health Curriculum Map

1. Review relevant standards. What

are the content & skills that need

to be taught?

2. Determine what assessments will

produce evidence for that

standard(s).

3. Specify the time that it would

take.4. What’s the big idea – the

essential question?

ActivityActivityDATA: Aloha School Test Scores

Working together, examine

the maps to see if there is anything in

them that supports the data.

List on chart paper what might

need to be revised, or what

needs more research. Also list “ah-has” that the group

has regarding the maps and

their implications for student

learning.

Essential Mapping ProcessEssential Mapping Process

• Essential Maps used as a framework for course, individual teacher maps

• Essential Maps assure attention to appropriate content and skills in an agreed upon continuum

• Essential Maps inform individual teacher maps but DO NOT prescribe the entire classroom curriculum

ActivityActivity Use Handouts 35-37. Looking at the sheet,

identify one gap and use the

worksheet to describe how you

might address the gap.

Work with those at your table

as if you were a mixed group

of teachers at a school.

The Cycle ContinuesThe Cycle ContinuesPhase 7Phase 7

• Task force groups report on long-term issues.• Curriculum mapping groups review the maps

throughout the course of the year.• The principal continually revisits data to identify

new areas of need and to focus instructional time on meeting those needs.

• Maps continue to provide data regarding the actual curriculum.

First Time Mapping AdviceFirst Time Mapping AdviceFirst time advice:

Concentrate on one discipline or content area or strand when first mapping.

Add others in subsequent years. Choose initial focus based on data -

identified student needs. Technology can assist in data

collection.
