****The Comprehensive Curriculum is a state mandated document that teachers
are required to use to guide their instruction. It encompasses all the
GLE’s that should be taught at each grade level.
General
Guidelines
ENGLISH
LANGUAGE ARTS/ READING ESSENTIALS (K-5):
1.
Teach the units in the order they are presented.
2.
There will be no set timeframe to teach each unit, but you should use
the suggested pacing time in the Comprehensive Curriculum as a guide so that
you will have covered the needed material before spring testing. You may
adjust as you feel needed.
MATH (K-5):
1.
The new Harcourt Math series covers all of the GLE’s in the
Comprehensive

from the units in the Comprehensive Curriculum. Evidence of use of the
activities must be documented in the lesson plan book.

You may choose to
continue to teach the math units in the order they are presented in the
