Enduring Understandings I’ve noted that there is a bit of struggle going on with regard to Enduring Understandings and unit design. IF you can make a direct connection to our Mission Statement (To inspire student voice in academics, community and self-advocacy), then do so. Otherwise, please consider the following.
Enduring Understandings are statements that refer to the important ideas or core processes that are central to a discipline and transferable to new situations. The ideas and understandings are transferable because they have enduring value beyond a specific topic. Enduring Understandings specify what BIG IDEAS we want students to come away with understanding. They clarify the focus of our teaching and connect with our mission and values as a school body.

Curriculum mapping is really about knowing why you teach what you teach to raise student achievement. This is our professional responsibility. You have considerable freedom in what you use to hit performance targets. Once you define the targets based on data, it is much easier to accomplish our collective goals. |
