Curriculum Scrolling 101 An overview….
How does curriculum scrolling support the danielson teacher evaluation model?
When using the curriculum scroll to design individual units of instruction, many more elements of the Danielson framework are touched upon such as: • 1a: Demonstrating Knowledge of Content and Pedagogy • 1b: Demonstrating Knowledge of Students • 1c: Setting Instructional Outcomes • 1d: Demonstrating Knowledge of Resources • 1e: Designing Coherent Instruction • 1f: Designing Student Assessments
Here some curriculum scrolling examples from fountaindale Elementary school
2nd Grade Scroll Organized by content area. Science/Social Studies form the content basis for ELA instruction. Math integrates where possible but often stands alone.
4th Grade Scroll These teachers used color-coded sticky notes for each content area. They chose to create a separate scroll to map out science and social studies instruction in more detail.
Key The music teacher chose to make purposeful connections on this scroll using pink Post-It notes.
Unit Plan The curriculum scroll led teachers to create unit plans. Visible here are the assessments that will be used for one Grade 1 ELA unit.
Curriculum Scroll Process • Identify big ideas in science and social studies and map out your teaching progression for the whole year. • Add all of the ELA standards. Think, “How can I make authentic connections between the content areas and ELA instruction?” • Add math, remembering that in many ways math will not necessarily connect to the rest of the content areas. • Use your curriculum scroll to plan units of study. • Revise your curriculum scroll as needed during the year.
Timeline for implementation April-May 2013: • Develop curriculum scrolls (for the 2013-14 school year) during CFIP & team planning time. August 2013: • Revise curriculum scrolls as necessary. • Develop August/September units of study aligned to the curriculum scrolls. Teams will need to agree upon the unit focus and the summative assessment to be used for each unit developed. Teachers will have the freedom, if chosen, to work on the development of their daily lesson plans/selection of materials/sequence & style of teaching. Ongoing 2013-14: • Revise the curriculum scrolls. • Develop further units of study as time progresses.
