SCOPE AND SEQUENCE
• WHAT IS IT
• WHY IT SHOULD BE USED
• WHERE IS IT
• HOW TO USE IT
• Three purposes of the Scope and Sequence Initiative
1. To create family friendly materials that assist families in understanding what their children should learn in our schools.
2. To create pacing charts for each grade and subject that assist school staff members in deciding what content to teach and when.
WHAT is the Scope and Sequence?
• Three purposes of the Scope and Sequence Initiative
3. To create student friendly learning charts to help students understand what they are expected to learn and when.
WHAT is the Scope and Sequence?
• Four assumptions about this initiative1. Research clearly indicates that student
achievement is strongest when students clearly know and understand what they are expected to learn (see for example, Dillon, Edwards-Grove).
2. Both research and best practice demonstrate that student achievement and school/district achievement are highest when students are expected to learn a few key concepts well (see for example, Marzano, Tomlinson, & McTighe).
WHY is the Scope and Sequence Important?
• Four assumptions about this initiative3. Teachers are professionals who know how
to teach and should be given the authority and responsibility to do so. This work is NOT about creating a script that tells teachers what to teach on a day to day basis.
WHY is the Scope and Sequence Important?
• Four assumptions about this initiative4. CMSD has a 35% student mobility rate and,
because of declining enrollment, also has a high faculty mobility rate. A GENERAL ORDER of content is important so that every student has the opportunity to learn the material they are expected to learn REGARDLESS of where they go to school.
WHY is the Scope and Sequence Important?
• Components to the Scope and Sequence Launch– The Scope and Sequence documents has
been printed BY GRADE and BY SUBJECT and has been delivered to all school buildings.
– It is also available electronically on School Net.
– Each building principal should have received the electronic PDF version of the Scope and Sequence.
HOW is the Scope and Sequence being launched?
• Components to the Scope and Sequence Launch– Student classroom posters have been
produced and have been delivered to schools. These posters are designed to show students what they are expected to know; to make learning explicit. Copies of the posters are also available in School Net.
HOW is the Scope and Sequence being launched?
LATE SECOND QUARTER
• 9.1.D – Connect physical, verbal and symbolic representations of integers, rational numbers and irrational numbers.
• 9.1.E – Compare, order & determine equivalent forms of real numbers.
• 9.1.F – Explain the effects of operations on the magnitude of quantities.
• 9.1.G – Estimate, compute and solve problems involving real numbers, including ratio, proportion and percent, and explain solutions.
LATE SECOND CONT’D
• 9.1.I – Estimate, compute and solve problems involving scientific notation, square roots and numbers with integer exponents.
Patterns, Function and Algebra • 9.4.E – Analyze and compare functions and
their graphs using attributes, such as rates of change, intercepts and zeros.
• 9.4.F – Solve and graph linear equations and inequalities.
• 9.4.H – Solve systems of linear equations involving two variables graphically and symbolically.
• Ongoing Emphasis
• MATHEMATICAL PROCESSES
• RESOURCES FOR YOU TO USE IN THE
SCOPE AND SEQUENCE TO HELP YOU IN YOUR TEACHING THE BENCHMARKS
School Net Resources
• Activities
• Lesson plans
• Assessments
Textbook alignment
SPECIFIC BENCHMARK
• LET’S TAKE ONE OF THE BENCHMARKS FOR LATE SECOND QUARTER
• 9.1.i SCIENTIFIC NOTATION AND EXPONENTS
WHERE HAS IT APPEARED ON THE OGT
• 2009 #6
• 2008 #19,40
• 2007 #19, 26, 28
• 2006 #43
• 2005 #40
• 2004 #8
HOW ARE OUR STUDENTS DOING ON THIS BENCHMARK?
• Align Tab
• School
• Teacher
• Item analysis
USING SUCCESS PORTAL TO FIND COMMON ERRORS
• KNOW YOUR SCHOOLS NUMBERS
• WHAT PERCENT ANSWERED A, B C, OR D
• GO TO SUCCESS PORTAL FOR INFORMATION ON WHY THE STUDENT ANSWERED THE QUESTION WRONG.

SCIENTIFIC CARD ACTIVITY
1. PLEASE LINE YOURSELVES IN ORDER FROM LOWEST TO HIGHEST
2. FORM A PAIR, STARTING WITH THE SMALLEST NUMBER WITH THE LARGEST NUMBER, SECOND LOWEST NUMBER WITH THE SECOND HIGHEST NUMBER, ETC
PUZZLE• EACH PAIR WILL RECEIVE A PUZZLE
SET IN AN ENVELOPE.
• YOUR JOB IS TO REASSEMBLE THE 16 SMALL SQUARES TO MAKE A LARGER SQUARE.
• WHERE EDGES MEET, THE COMPUTATION PROBLEM WILL MATCH ITS SOLUTION.(10 MIN)
GROUP SHARE PROBLEMS
• EACH GROUP WILL NOW RECEIVE A HANDOUT.
• YOUR JOB IS TO SOLVE THE ASSIGNED QUESTION AND BE PREPARED TO EXPLAIN TO THE GROUP.
INDIVIDUAL PROBLEM• ASSUME THERE ARE 20,000 RUNNERS
IN THE NYC MARATHON. EACH RUNNER RUNS 26 MILES. IF YOU ADD TOGETHER THE TOTAL MILES FOR ALL RUNNERS, HOW MANY TIMES AROUND THE EARTH WOULD THE RUNNERS HAVE GONE?
• (CIRCUMFERENCE OF EARTH IS 2.5 X 10^4 MILES)
• PAIR SHARE
