Creating Standards-Based Integrated Curriculum : The Common Core State Standards Edition
Overview
Translate the new standards into meaningful curriculum
The Common Core State Standards offer a shared language that ensures consistency and accountability, while also giving you the flexibility to design a curriculum that′s right for your students. Of course, knowing what you need to teach doesn′t tell you how to teach it--and that′s where curriculum integration expert Susan M. Drake comes in.
In this new edition of her classic text, Drake applies the essential principles of standards-based curriculum, instruction, and assessment to today′s unique challenges. Focusing on multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary approaches, she provides guidance on
- Unpacking the Common Core State Standards
- Planning assessment tasks
- Designing instructional strategies
- Developing daily activities
- Helping students connect essential questions to enduring understandings
Included are new examples of exemplary programs, discussion questions, a sample completed interdisciplinary curriculum, and activity suggestions for building your own standards-based integrated curriculum. This proven resource is the road map teachers and curriculum developers need to navigate the unfamiliar territory of the CCSS and to develop a curriculum that helps their students thrive.
