Aligning Curricula to State Standards: Lessons From a High- Performing Urban Middle School
In education, we give much lip service to aligned curricula, but what do they really look like? In this workshop-style session, you’ll experience how 2008 DTM winner Roxbury Preparatory Charter School in Boston uses standardized state assessments and curriculum frameworks to develop an internal, aligned curriculum and assessment plan. Roll up your sleeves and take part in an exercise in which you analyze a state standard, translate it into “internal” standards accessible to students, and develop a year-long curriculum aligned with these standards.
