- Develop big ideas for 5 Social Studies strands
- Develop essential questions for each strand
- Develop conceptual focus for each of three units for K-6 and 6 units for 7-8.
Along with the Social Studies work, teachers are exploring ways to integrate technology into instruction. One of the on-line tools they are exploring is Learning.com's Easy Tech program.
They will spend the next three days working on this project. The district has chosen to use the research-based framework "Understanding by Design" in partnership with http://www.afre.org/.
