Meade County’s Kindergarten Curriculum 2013- 14 This document is a compilation of the various curriculum documents that have been created by teams of teachers within the district. This is an overview. More detailed information for instructional purposes is currently located on district teacher share –elementary curriculum- 2013-14 Pacing, Targets, IAs, and then by grade level for most content areas. There are separate folders for those areas in which a teacher is responsible for multiple grade levels (music, pe, library, counselors). The goal is to have all documents eventually housed on CIITS.

Kindergarten Writing PacingEach school will create their own pacing for writing including the order in which they teach opinion writing (standard 1), informative/explanatory texts (standard 2), and narrative writing (standard 3). There will be common district on-demand prompts for each of these types of writing throughout the year. Each school will determine the order of the prompts for the “entire school.” (If a school chooses to give the narrative prompt first, it will be given to ALL students in all grades in the school, not just one grade level.) Students will write to the prompt in 1 sitting not over extended days (K-5 up to 30 minutes; 6th up to 40 minutes). Common rubrics will be used to score on-demand writing. A summary of results will be sent to the district.

Kindergarten A/H PacingA public review of the comprehensive draft PreK-12 standards, including model cornerstone assessments, will begin in January 2014. The current project timeline includes a release date of March 2014, for the complete and finished standards. The Kentucky Board of Education would then consider adoption.

Kindergarten Visual Arts(sample draft created summer 2010)

The length and frequency of visual arts instruction varies from school to school. Therefore, students across the district will be assessed at slightly different times during the school year. Also, while the same basic skills will be taught regardless of the location, some locations could apply skills and concepts in greater/fewer completed art projects. Schools will determine the order and pacing in order allow for flexible integration of the content.

Elements of Art I can…ColorColor Schemes/ GroupsValue

Name the 3 primary colors that are used to make lots of other colors. (Primary- red, blue,yellow

ShapeForm

Name a circle, square, triangle, and rectangle.

Line Use straight and curved lines to make a picture.

Texture Feel an object and describe its texture (rough, smooth, hard, soft)

Space Identify what is in the background and foreground of a piece of art. This means I can tell what I notice first and what is noticed later.

Media & Processes Use elements of art to create a landscape, portrait, and/or still life.

Use different processes to create works of art. Two-dimensional - drawing, painting, fiber art (e.g., fabric printing, stamping), collageThree-dimensional - pottery, sculpture, fiber art (e.g., constructing with fiber, weaving, quilting)

Exploration of art will include a look at art from diverse cultures and time periods.
