Bloom’s Taxonomy and Unwrapping a standard Using the Iowa Core Curriculum standards to develop daily learning targets
The Standards define what all students are expected to know and be able to do, not how teachers should teach.
Why is unwrapping the standards important? Unwrapping the standards helps us, as teachers, to put into words EXACTLY what we want our students to know and EXACTLY what we want our students to be able to do.
The Standards use individual grade levels in kindergarten through grade 8 to provide useful specificity; the Standards use two-year bands in grades 9–12 to allow schools, districts, and states flexibility in high school course design. The Iowa Core Standards Help Align instruction over time
What is a standard? A learning target? Standard Definition: What we want students to be able to know and do at the end of any given time. Standards are provided by the state and derived from the National Standards. Learning Target Definition: These are statements of intended learning based on the standards. Learning targets are in student friendly language and are specific to the lesson for the day and directly connected to assessment. .
Example of a Standard vs. Learning Targets Science Standard: Use a model to illustrate the role of cellular division (mitosis) and differentiation in producing and maintaining complex organisms. Science Learning Targets: (Scaffold for differentiation) I can draw a labeled diagram illustrating the steps of mitosis. I can create a three dimensional model illustrating the steps of mitosis. I can create a computer animation illustrating the steps of mitosis.
The Next Slide gives an example of alignment, K-12 This example is from Language Arts
Language Progressive Skills, by Grade The following skills, marked with an asterisk (*) in Language standards 1–3, are particularly likely to require continued attention in higher grades as they are applied to increasingly sophisticated writing and speaking.
https://www.educateiowa.gov/ • This website provides the Iowa Core Standards we will use today and you will use in the future. Now, Let’s “UnWRAP” a standard
Standard WHST.9-10.4 (9th and 10th Grade History, Social Studies) • Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. Example of aN Iowa Core Standard
Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. Underline the nouns & circle the verbs
The underlined nouns = What Students Need to Know • The circled verbs = What Students Need to Be Able to Do UnWrapping the Standard
What we want them to know are CONCEPTS. What we want them to do are SKILLS.
writing development organization style task purpose audience List the nouns (these are the concepts being taught)
Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are [appropriate to task, purpose, and audience.] Note any criteria for the assignment. (the words in brackets above)

Produce writing development organization style task purpose audience List verbs. These are the skills and/or tasks the students should be able to do. writing, development, organization, style, task, purpose, audience
Write Student Learning Targets in the following Student Friendly format (I Can…) I can develop ideas, details, and/or evidence for a specific writing task, based on the purpose and audience. (SYNTHESIS, CREATE) I can organize my writing based on a specific task, purpose, and audience. (SYNTHESIS, EVALUATING) I can determine and use appropriate writing style and structure (e.g., diction, voice, sentence structure) based on the specific task, purpose, and audience. (ANALYSIS, APPLY)

Student Products The learner will produce clear and coherent writing on a variety of topics using organization and style appropriate to task, purpose, and audience.
