purpose of the pacing guides - whitthorne middle...

Maury County Public Schools, Spring 2019 of 25 Purpose of the Pacing Guides This pacing guide provides a map for instructing the required standards in a logical sequence. Just as a map may show multiple routes for arriving at a destination, a pacing document is simple a guide for ensuring all standards are instructed within an academic school year. While it is the expectation that standards noted in a specified nine weeks be instructed within that period, teachers have the professional liberty to teach these standards in a preferred order during that nine-week period. Teachers are certainly the authority on how to teach the standard. Teaching grade-level standards to a depth that ensures students master the content by the end of the school year is the goal. Teachers must teach a curriculum that favors depth over breadth rather than being “an inch deep and a mile wide.” Assessing the learning needs of each student and providing interventions to help students master grade-level standards are critical to student academic growth. Integration of social studies and/or science standards in ELA and math instruction is encouraged as feasible. Teacher collaboration for the purpose of integrating instruction of literacy, social studies, and/or science standards will enhance the total instructional program of a school.
