Chapter 5A
Chapter 5 is all about the curriculum in a class. The first part of the chapter goes into how important planning out the year is for meeting all of the curriculum standards. I liked how the book mentioned that the planning takes place at three stages: the school year, the units, and the plans. Breaking the planning down into long-term and short-term is helpful. You can use the long-term plans to guide the short-term daily lesson plans. Having a long-term plan allows teachers to stay on track so that they can complete the school year with having all of the standards met.

Thank you, Emma:)
ReplyDeleteI loved this chapter and all the talk about planning! In my student teaching experience, I quickly realized the importance of planning! We set long term goals and plans, and then fit our daily plans to align. You're right, having a long-term plan does help teachers stay on track. Thanks for sharing! :)
