Physics Curriculum Map school year

1 Physics Curriculum Map school year. Quarter Page This map is a result of surveys and the physics committee- we will implement for the 2013 school year. Please keep track of pacing concerns as you go so that future versions of the map can be amended. Science Content/Language Objectives The Science Content and Language Objectives are to be posted for each lesson, restated to students during the lesson, and revisited at the end of each lesson. These are written as I Can statements. Key Concepts for Differentiation Identification of key concepts is a work in progress. In an effort to assist teachers in the process of differentiation in Tier I teaching, Key Concepts have been identified in the curriculum maps as those specific objectives a teacher would focus on during small group instruction with struggling students. Vocabulary Additional Resources/Notes Benchmarks Intended Learning Outcomes (ILO) Key concepts cover minimum, basic skills and knowledge every student must master. Key Concepts are not an alternative to teaching the entire Utah Core Standards, rather they emphasize which concepts to prioritize for differentiation. Use in word walls, or in science notebooks and graphic organizers. Teachers are encouraged to makes notes or jot down resources they find useful for each unit. The Pre and Post assessments should be integrated into classroom instruction and used as formative tools to plan instruction and differentiation. These describe the goals for science skills and attitudes. They are an integral part of the Core that should be included as part of instruction. Physics Science Curriculum Map
