Effective instruction and assessment can only occur when a comprehensive, viable, and visible curriculum is available to teachers, school administrators, and district leadership. Proven Practices offers both professional learning workshops that help to create a common framework for what curriculum should look like and complete academies to work alongside districts in developing a curriculum model. Using best practices around developing a standards-based curriculum, our workshops and academies can result in understanding the modern views around standards-based instruction through to the creation of curriculum maps embedded with the components that support teachers in instruction.
Lesson planning requires two seemingly competing components: a defined instructional path and an ability to remain fluid and flexible. Proven Practices can work with your team to develop lesson plan templates that offer both while integrating the best practices of lesson creation, formative assessment, and evaluation.
Once developed, too many curriculum documents fail to be implemented or become outdated quickly. With the Proven Practices sustaining practice offerings, we help districts create a plan for implementation and long-term review, revision, and use of developed curriculum.
