K-3: CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION Limited/No implementation Needs Improvement Proficient Distinguished a) Teachers rarely collaborate on planning for meeting the needs of all students. a) Teachers informally share ideas and strategies for instruction. a) Teachers consistently collaborate with others on their team or grade level to plan instructional units, including common assessments and supplemental activities to ensure that each student has access to the curriculum and access to supports necessary to attain the curriculum. a) Teachers collaborate school wide to ensure each student has access to learning experiences that are necessary and appropriate for attaining and even progressing beyond curricular standards. Parent, community and higher education partners are regularly involved in helping design engaging and relevant learning experiences that may extend beyond the school walls. b) Students have limited access to the equipment and materials they need to attain the curriculum. There is inconsistency or inequity throughout the building. Instruction is not revised to meet individual student needs. b) Students have some access to the equipment and materials they need to attain the curriculum. Instruction is not often adjusted based on needs and/or students are not given opportunities or instructed in how to use the feedback in an effective way in order to improve student work. b) Students have access to a variety of equipment and materials that are relevant and necessary to support their needs. Instruction is continually revised and students are instructed in how to use the feedback to improve their work. b) Students have access to and use a variety of equipment and materials designed to meet their individual needs and enhance their learning experiences. Instruction is continually revised and students are instructed in how to use the feedback to improve their work. KDE:ONGL:FCS September, 2012 Page 2 K- 3
3 Curriculum & Instruction Demonstrator 2. Aligned and Rigorous Curriculum An aligned and rigorous curriculum provides access to Kentucky Core Academic Standards (KCAS) for all students as defined by state and national standards. Limited/No implementation Needs Improvement Proficient Distinguished a) Curriculum is not aligned to state standards. b) There is no plan/policy on the use of instructional time/curriculum implementation. a) Curriculum is only topically aligned to state standards and/or does not include pacing recommendations. b) Inadequate instructional time is provided in the schedule to effectively plan and enact the curriculum; OR instructional time is not prioritized and effectively used for addressing the curriculum. a) The curriculum is vertically and horizontally aligned to state standards and fully addresses the rigor/intent of the standards.

Pacing guides are present and updated annually based on implementation data and lessons learned. b) Ample instructional time is provided and utilized effectively by all teachers to address the curriculum. Flexibility is built into the schedule to further address student misconceptions as well as to provide enrichment opportunities to ensure student success. KDE:ONGL:FCS September, 2012 Page 3 K- 3
4 Curriculum & Instruction Demonstrator 3. Instructional Strategies All teachers implement research-based instructional strategies that include characteristics of highly effective teaching and learning for all students. Limited/No implementation Needs Improvement Proficient Distinguished a) Instructional strategies throughout the school are predominantly teacher-centered and involve whole class or inflexible groupings of students. a) Instructional strategies vary widely throughout the school. Students work in small groups, based on student needs. a) Teachers routinely use studentcentered and evidence-based instructional strategies that include classroom discussions, questioning, and learning tasks that promote critical thinking skills. Teachers scaffold instruction. Students work in flexible, collaborative groups based on student needs and learning styles. a) Teachers routinely use highly effective, student-centered and evidence-based instructional strategies that include classroom discussions, questioning, ageappropriate inquiry-based activities and learning tasks that promote 21 st Century Skills. Students work in flexible, collaborative groups based on student interests, choice, needs and learning styles. b) Teachers rarely focus lessons on defined/standards-based learning targets. b) Teachers may share a learning target but do not necessarily ensure the target is connected to intended standards and/or that success criteria for meeting the target is understood by all students. b) Teachers consistently involve students in defining and/or writing learning targets (using clear and precise language) that are essential to standard attainment. Students can describe what it takes to achieve the target (the success criteria). Instruction is planned to directly ensure that students meet the targets and ultimately have opportunities to demonstrate understanding of the standard as a whole. b) Teachers and students coconstruct/review the learning targets daily. Students can articulate what they are learning to do and how they will know they are successful. They regularly selfassess and engage in peerassessment strategies. Students also track their progress with learning targets throughout instructional units and have multiple and varied opportunities to demonstrate learning. KDE:ONGL:FCS September, 2012 Page 4 K- 3

8 Formative & Summative Assessment K-3: FORMATIVE AND SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT Demonstrator 1.
