Curriculum Mapping Links for the various curriculum subjects will be added to this page in the near future.
Each curriculum map has a "big idea" and at least one "essential question"
that corresponds with the big idea. A "big idea" is a key topic or unit that a student must master in that subject or content area and in that grade. The "essential question" is an overriding question that requires higher level and critical thinking in order to answer. Teachers post the essential question in the classroom and use that question as a frame for the student learning. All students are expected to answer the essential question.
Each curriculum map also includes "essential vocabulary." There is specific
vocabulary that every student should master during each "big idea."
We also include ideas for differentiated instruction in our curriculum
