Unit Discussions: Find a partner to share your unit outlines…
Reviewers: Look for …• Driving question• Benchmark lessons (BL) – Do they give opportunities to develop
necessary skills and knowledge, and potential to ask questions? • Assessments/milestones – What assessments are included? Do they
illustrate what students can do? Do they match BL? • Sub-driving questions – What questions arise? What investigations do
students develop? How are these investigations assessed?• Standard Connections: Is there alignment between standards and
activities? Are NGSS used? SEPs? DCIs? CCCs?
