Teachers are well educated a practiced professionals, yet we are treated like we don't know to create engaging hands-on lessons. This meme adds some humor to a very irritating situation. ]]> 2019-10-20 20:51:07 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/400038026 klangzn https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/400038717 This meme also serves to add some light to a very frustrating situation. Teachers are held accountable for students performance, but the curriculum is rarely ever seen as an issue. This doesn't seem to line up!]]> 2019-10-20 20:55:31 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/400038717 klangzn https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/400039266 To follow suit of the negative impacts on teachers.

This allows us to teach in response to what our students need. This site gives more info about the framework and its' components. ]]> 2019-11-05 00:52:10 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/406610598 turner32 https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408090180 This article was easy to relate to. I like that the teacher in this piece is a veteran teacher of 25 years, because  she has the experience to say how teaching has been vs. how it is now. This story is happening all over the nation, but what shocked me is that this article is from 2013. Since then, the data push has only increased.]]> 2019-11-07 14:42:05 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408090180 turner32 https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408095272 This book was referenced in an article that was strongly opposed to scripted curriculum. This book was mentioned because it shows the "proof" we need from students to show that they grow, learn, and become enriched members of our society. 

I thought this was a nice way to think about a way to measure the impact of teachers on students in such a standards based, data heavy profession. 

This book vs. data/standards just shows the ongoing argument of what's really important for young people to know by the time they graduate from high school, and what is the best way to teach them.]]> 2019-11-07 14:47:53 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408095272 turner32 https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408148349 This video is a very quick and dirty run down of what scripted teaching is.]]> 2019-11-07 15:56:18 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408148349 turner32 https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408151791 This is a case study published in 2014 about three teachers who still found success within a scripted curriculum.]]> 2019-11-07 16:00:52 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408151791 paterbl https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408934896 "The curriculum is so scripted in that school that every teacher should be saying almost the exact same thing as every other teacher in that grade level."
This video talks about the cons of scripted curriculum. The gentleman in the video talks about three reasons why he believes scripted curriculum is a bad thing. ]]> 2019-11-09 01:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408934896 paterbl https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408935695 When I first decided to enter the teaching field, a lot of my teacher friends and relatives told me exactly what the teacher in this article is saying. This is what makes me so nervous about entering the field, and why I almost didn't. Currently, I work in a school that does not have to follow the same standards and has its own curriculum. 
I am anxious to see what it's like on the public school side when I begin student teaching in January. ]]> 2019-11-09 01:25:19 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/408935695 paterbl https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409061308 This brief presentation discusses some of the advantages to scripted lessons. ]]> 2019-11-09 21:07:48 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409061308 paterbl https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409062583 This video describes scripted curriculum and how it works.

This lead me to the thought that perhaps one day our schools will be ran by "robot teachers." ]]> 2019-11-09 21:22:49 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409063129 klangzn https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409195037 This article analyzes how NCLB has created a scripted curriculum culture and the damage it has cause on schooling. ]]> 2019-11-10 18:23:32 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409195037 klangzn https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409195418 My biggest problem with scripted curriculum is that they are saturated with racism. These scripted curriculums assume that all students are assimilated to the dominate culture. By forcing white culture to be exclusively taught in the k-12 curriculum, so many students of color are left out or isolated. Teachers need the freedom to design and create lesson based on their students context. ]]> 2019-11-10 18:25:36 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409195418 wakermj https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409221898 The Urban Education article stated "What is necessary for success in a suburban district might look qualitatively different from a rural or urban environment" and this made me think of the equity being giving each district the freedom to build what they need for their students and not forcing a cookie cutter curriculum on a district in which it might not fit. ]]> 2019-11-10 20:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409221898 wakermj https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409223671 I liked this short blog post because it allows you to start thinking about all the ways in which you really can and SHOULD stretch the boundaries of scripted curriculum if you are required to use it. ]]> 2019-11-10 21:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409223671 wakermj https://padlet.com/klangzn/8dgya8z339xq/wish/409225497 This article talks about the sad reality of how our scripted curriculum was stemmed from testing and has also led to an obsession of testing.
