Goals and Objectives |
Goal 1
Every teacher will use collaboratively designed Common Units of Instruction that are aligned with Common Assessments.
Objective(s):
Currently in all areas, access to a guaranteed and viable standards-based curriculum is limited and/or inconsistent. By the end of the 2010-11 school year, 100% of teachers at all grade levels will have access to a guaranteed and viable standards-based curriculum in all areas.
Goal 2
Use of common formative assessments is limited, or non-existent. By the end of the 2010-11 school year, Common Formative Pre-and Post-assessments (and Collaborative Scoring Guides) will be available in all areas that measure the entire scope of the guaranteed and viable standards-based curriculum.
