Rigorous Curriculum Design

Greetings and
Introductions
1. What is your name, position,
and school?
2. Why is it important that the
teachers from CVUSD develop a
new K-12 curriculum?
3. How will students and teachers
benefit from a vertically aligned,
clearly articulated curriculum?
Learning Intentions
By the end of this session you will
 Consider the context for the
development of Rigorous Curriculum
Design (RCD) units of study.
 Explore the components included in
RCD units of study.
 Examine a current draft of unit one and
provide feedback.
 Provide suggestions for future unit
development.
Thinking Together:
Determining
Discussion Partners
 What does the word rigor mean to
you? What components should
be included in a rigorous
curriculum design?
 How are standards, assessment,
and instruction connected within a
strong curriculum?
 In order for teachers to deeply
implement the components of a
rigorous curriculum so that students
benefit, what processes and
supporting structures need to be in
place?
 What changes have occurred in the
21st century that set the stage for
the CCSS and Rigorous Curriculum
Design?
In the 21st century, the question
is not what do you know, but
rather what can you do with
what you know and how do you
update your knowledge
continuously?

Based on the information about the CCSS (ELA)
college and career readiness practices, components
of the formative process, and SBAC assessments,
what next steps need to be taken in planning for
student learning?

Rigorous Curriculum Defined
A rigorous curriculum is an inclusive set of
the following intentionally aligned
components organized into sequenced units
of study
 Clear learning outcomes (CCSS)
 Aligned formative assessments
 Engaging learning experiences
 Effective instructional strategies

Rigorous Curriculum Defined
Rigor refers to a level of difficulty and the
ways in which students apply their
knowledge through higher-order thinking
skills. Rigor also means reaching for a
higher level of quality in both effort and
outcome.

Step 1: Prioritize the ELA Standards
Steps 2, 3, 4: Name and Pace

Limit the number of
priority standards per
unit in order to ensure
that students reach the
desired level of mastery.

for remediation and
enrichment between
units of study.

every prioritized
standard is addressed
in at least two units of

of the Future in New York City
MS-LS1-2: Develop and use a model
to describe the function of a cell as a
whole and ways parts of cells
contribute to the function
Reading Standards for Literacy in
Science and Technical Subjects
RST.6-8.2: Determine the central ideas or
conclusions of a text; provide an
accurate summary of the text distinct
from prior knowledge or opinions.
Writing Standards for Literacy in History/Social
Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects
WHST. 6-8.2.:Write informative/explanatory
texts . . .
a. Introduce a topic clearly, previewing what
is to follow; organize ideas, concepts, and
information into broader categories as
appropriate to achieving purpose; include
formatting (e.g., headings), graphics (e.g.,
charts, tables), and multimedia when useful
to aiding comprehension.
Performance Task 1
Observe, research, &
create an annotated
diagram of a cell
recorded in students’
science logs
Performance Task 3
Write a report focusing
in greater detail on one
part of a cell using five
sources.
Performance Task 2
Use a Metaphor -- Build
and explain models
comparing structures in
NYC to the organelles
and their functions
Performance Task 4
Create a lesson plan
outlining the presentation,
include an assessment
and listening guide
