Begin With the End In Mind

“To begin with the end in mind means to start with a clear understanding of your destination.It means to know where you’re going so that you better understand where you are now so that the steps you take are always in the right direction.”~ Stephen R. CoveyThe 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peoplehttps://www.stephencovey.com/

Where are we going?

If you don’t know where

you’re going,

any road will get you

there.

If you don’t know where

you’re going,you’ll

probably end up

somewhere else.

What are we doing?Mapping the curriculum to

ensure congruence among the written, taught & tested subject matter

Articulating the content & courses horizontally across grade levels

Aligning curriculum content & courses vertically with PA Common Core Standards, National Common Core Standards & NCEA Standards

Page 18: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

18

What is curriculum mapping?

Systematic process for collecting & maintaining a database of the operational curriculum in a school district

Hub for connecting all aspects of the teaching & learning program

Procedure for creating a culture of continuous learning & improvement of student achievement

Page 19: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

19

What is curriculum mapping?

Discussion & Reflection Documentation, Alignment, Articulation

of Recommended – Common Core Written – PA Common Core, LEA Goals Supported – Materials & Resources Taught – Content actually delivered by

teachers Tested – PSSA, Keystones Learned – Content actually learned by

students

Page 20: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

What is curriculum mapping?

Process to develop a product that is a: Pathway to student achievement Guideline for consistency

Plan for accountability

Document for school community

Page 21: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

21

Why map the curriculum?

3 basic reasons to map the curriculum: Issue motivated

Low test scores Address specific teaching & learning problems

Grassroots motivated Belief that it will help students improve & succeed Recognize gaps, redundancies & inconsistencies

Continuous improvement motivated Desire to remain competitive Plan to increase professional dialogue

Page 22: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

22

Why map the curriculum?

To plan programs, resources & materials

To communicate internally & externallyTo focus on learning outcomesTo align with PA Common CoreTo mesh written, taught, tested contentTo articulate within & across grade

levelsTo expand instructional timeTo promote student achievement

Page 23: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

23

Why are we doing this? Promote increased student achievement Gather system-wide data Analyze instructional gaps & mend them Keep current with evidence-based

teaching & learning practices Increase professional conversations &

reflective practice Define the science of teaching Integrate the natural connections

between disciplines & classrooms

Page 24: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

24

Why are we doing this?

Eliminate duplication of effort, waste of time & resources

Replace duplication with spiraling Reduce overlaps of topics and materials Ensure consistency/horizontal

articulation & continuity/vertical alignment

Create a legacy from experienced teachers

Establish a roadmap for new hires

Page 25: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

25

Who is doing this?TEACHERS because they are the

subject matter, content, course experts

TEACHERS because they know instruction & what works in their classrooms & schools

TEACHERS because they understand their students & their needs

Page 26: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

26

How are we doing this?Conditions for Successful Implementation

Page 27: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

Curriculum = A course, a route, a path run in small steps

Consider Johnny’s K-12 experience: Flotilla of teachers; 40 - 65 Experiences vary by teacher Content varies by teacher Instruction varies by teacher Communication among teachers is limited Need a common pathway =

28

Empty Chair = student-centered teaching & learning

Picture a struggling student in that empty chair

Consider what that student needsto become successful in school

Make every teaching & learning decision based on that student’s needs

Forecast how your decisions will affect that student positively or negatively

Modify instruction for that student’s needs

Become student-centered Level the playing field; make a

difference in a student’s life

Page 29: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

29

Today’s Big Ideas A Standards Aligned System integrates Standards, Assessment,

Curriculum, Instruction, Materials & Resources & Safe & Supportive School Environment.

PA Common Core Standards, Assessment Anchors & Eligible Content are the student achievement targets. They define what students should know & be able to do at each grade level. They are NOT the curriculum or a prescribed series of instructional activities.

Mapping is a tool for analyzing, aligning & articulating curriculum, instruction & assessment & improving student achievement.

Backwards Design & Understanding by Design methodology are processes used in mapping & provide a common vocabulary.

Mapping the English Language Arts & Mathematics content will focus teaching strategies, target learning goals & enhance student achievement.

Curriculum mapping creates a legacy for those who follow.

Getting into the “zone” 21st Century Students

Important knowledge today

Making C.I.A. connections Written, taught, tested Intended, implemented, attained/achieved

Curriculum mapping: Alignment – vertically with PA Common Core Articulation – horizontally within & between grade levels

Textbook is curriculum NOT!

Page 35: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

35

What material must be “covered” in each course during each period & quarter & semester?What activities should be incorporated into the daily lessons?What homework should be assigned to students?What questions should be on the test?

Past Practice…Lesson PlanningTraditional Approach: Started with teacher inputs

Page 36: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

The Bottom Line…

Page 37: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

37

Is 1 period enough time?45 minutes per day per course

180 day per year =135 hours per year per course =

135/ 6.5 hours per day21 school days per course

- 20% estimated time lost based on- 10% time lost for school events;

assemblies, testing - 10% time lost for class

interruptions18 actual school daysper year per course

Make the most of the time available for teaching &

learning…FOCUS on the PA Common Core Standards!

Page 38: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

Best Practice…Backwards DesignNon-Traditional Approach: Starts with student outputs

What Big Ideas in this content area/course must students master?

What Essential Questions will provoke students’ thinking & learning?

What instructional strategies & learning experiences must engage students so they demonstrate what they know & are able to do?

Page 40: Curriculum Mapping  to Advance Teaching & Learning

Understanding by Design (UbD) Builds curriculum through a groundbreaking, but

commonsense approach

Establishes a framework for designing curriculum units, performance assessments & instruction that lead students to deep understanding of the content taught

Expands on "six facets of understanding", which include students being able to explain, interpret, apply, have perspective, empathize, & have self-knowledge about a given topic

Identifies what students must know & be able to do to be college & career ready

Three Different DOK Levels Using 1 Verb: Describe

DOK 1- Describe three characteristics of metamorphic rocks. (Requires simple recall)

DOK 2- Describe the difference between metamorphic & igneous rocks. (Requires cognitive processing to determine the differences in the two rock types)

DOK 3- Describe a model that you might use to represent the relationships that exist within the rock cycle. (Requires deep understanding of rock cycle & a determination of how best to represent it)

Difficulty is a reference to how many students answer an item correctly•How many of you know the definition of exaggerate?

DOK Low = RecallIf all or most of you know the definition , this item is an easy one.•How many of you know the definition of illeist?

DOK Low = RecallIf most of you do not know the definition, this item is a difficult one.

DoK is not about difficulty

Complexity vs Difficulty

The Depth of Knowledge levels are based on the complexity of the mental processes the student must use to find the correct answer, not the difficulty of the item.

Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy

Webb’s DOK1. Rememberingdefine, identify, name, select, state, order (involves a one-step process)

1.0 Recall & ReproductionRecall a fact, information or a procedure: define, identify, name, select, state, order; involves a one-step process

2. Understandingconvert, estimate, explain, express, factor, generalize, give example, identify, indicate, locate, picture graphically (involves a 2-step process)3. Applyingapply, choose, compute, employ, interpret, graph, modify, operate, plot, practice, solve, use, (involves a three-or-more step process)

2.0 Apply Skill ConceptEngages mental process beyond habitual response using information or conceptual knowledge. Requires two or more steps: apply, choose, compute, employ, interpret, graph, modify, operate, plot, practice, solve, use involves a two-step process

4. Analyzingcompare, contrast, correlate, differentiate, discriminate, examine, infer, maximize, minimize, prioritize, subdivide, test

3.0 Strategic ThinkingRequires reasoning, developing plan or a sequence of steps, some complexity, more than one possible answer, higher level of thinking than previous 2 levels: compare, contrast, correlate, differentiate, discriminate, examine, infer, maximize, minimize, prioritize, subdivide, test

5. Evaluatingarrange, collect, construct, design, develop, formulate, organize, set up, prepare, plan, propose, create, experiment & record data

4.0 Extended ThinkingRequires investigation, complex reasoning, planning, developing & thinking‐probably over an extended period of time. 1. Longer time period is not an applicable factor if work is simply repetitive & does not require higher‐order thinking: arrange, collect, construct, design, develop, formulate, organize, set up, prepare, plan, propose, create, experiment & record data

6. Creatingappraise, assess, defend, estimate, evaluate, judge, predict, rate, validate, verify

Knowledge (Know) & Skills (D0)Concepts & CompetenciesThe Wisdom of PracticeYour turn:

Think about the Big Ideas & Essential Questions that you wrote for the Unit in your Course, Grade Level, Subject Area that you teach.

What are some of the Student Learning Objectives that you can relate to the Unit’s Big Ideas & Essential Questions? What must students know & be able to do?

Write 3 to 5 Student Learning Objectives for the Big Ideas of the Unit in your Course, Grade Level, Subject Area that you teach.
