Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Washington District Curriculum

Washington Community School District describes how curriculum development involves both research and design. The research is conducted both internally at the local level and externally, examining professional organizations, recognized experts, and the most up-to-date research. Designing the curriculum entails planning and choosing the academic standards and objectives that will be focused on and the instructional strategies that will be utilized.

Washington Community School District explains the two necessary components for successful implementation of a curriculum: an understanding of the concepts of the discipline to be taught and the providing of organized assistance (including coaching) to teachers to ensure that the most effective instructional strategies are being delivered in the classroom. Instructors work on generating essential questions that go along with the objectives in the curriculum. Lastly, it is essential that regular curriculum evaluation be conducted to ensure its effectiveness.

Chalk Talk: Two Holiday Children’s Book

Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks for reading! One reading option is “Amelia Bedelia Talks Turkey” from the famous series by Herman Parish. In this hilarious story, Amelia Bedelia volunteers to be in charge of the third grade pageant when many of the teachers are ill and completely turns it upside down. However, the audience loves it anyway. In “Thelonius Turkey Live! (On Felicia Ferguson’s Farm)”, written by Lynn Rowe Reed, Thelonius the turkey is worried because he thinks he is going to be Thanksgiving dinner, so he keeps coming up with plans to avoid the “chopping block.” He finds out, however, that his feathers are being used to create lovely hats. The book includes very interesting illustrations: collages incorporating real-life objects.
