Defining Your Curriculum
Wednesday October 16, 2024 9:00am - 10:00am EDT
Media Center
Oftentimes teams feel like there is a disconnect between their learning philosophies and documented curriculum. Articulating a clear definition of quality curriculum for your school or district's unique learners can be a key step in ensuring that your curriculum captures all the elements of high quality teaching and learning in which your team believes.

Articulate your curriculum definition and use it to guide your conversations for the day.
