"Do what you always do, get what you always get."- Source unknown
Over the last two months, Algebra II teachers from across the district have been digging into the AZ College and Career Readiness standards to create a curriculum that is significantly different. These teachers have been learning about the depth of each standard, analyzing the tools from PARCC and Smarter balanced, then created a rich scope and sequence for our Algebra 3-4 implementation year during the 2014-2015 school year.
The curriculum is ready for review (see links below) and the summer curriculum team will use the framework to complete the unit assessments for each unit and develop learning experiences that prepare students for the rigor (balance of procedural fluency and conceptual understanding) of the new standards. As we are winding down for the school year, you can review the curriculum with your collaborative team and start planning. As the summer teams create materials during the summer, watch for updates on the blog.
Thank you to the following teachers for the continued dedication to creating rich curriculum and sacrificing their weekend hours to the project.
