The curriculum map allows for teachers to utilize a plan for what to teach, and what kind of teaching is coming for the students. This is essential to student achievement because teachers can use curriculum tools to reach a wide range of learners. This is important for teacher practices because it allows teachers to collaborate and create a school's identity.

The pacing guides are also important for state testing and curriculum testing (Lynch, 2022).

There are many different priority standards in the classroom, but for them to be taught effectively, it is important that teachers use the pacing guides as a tool rather than a deadline.

Lesson plans are in depth guides that outline the standards, objectives, learning goals, materials, activities, assessments, and differentiation that will drive the students learning. It is important that teachers have lesson plans to create an equitable classroom where all students can grow and learn.

Because every student has their own learning style, teachers have to differentiate learning for students who are not proficient English language speakers, students with special needs, and students with special backgrounds. Tools to learning and feeling safe in a learning environment is crucial to student success, and it is essential for teachers to always include means of differentiation in their lessons to allow for student success. ]]> 2023-03-16 04:53:31 UTC https://padlet.com/aprilseeyang/h3wlili1ddq79rdr/wish/2518821799
