Curriculum Leadership Institute (The CLI Model)

A management system for academic programs that includes a policy and a governance body

Proven, step-by-step, processes for curriculum, instruction and assessment

Based on 20 years of scientific research

Steering Committee The governance body that creates a policy

document that clarifies purposes, authority, and relationships

The policy document is approved by the superintendent and BOE to become permanent policy for how curriculum is handled

Chooses a Curriculum Coordinating Council (CCC)

For the sake of time…Steering Committee = CCC

In August of 2011, a lottery will be drawn for 1, 2, or 3 year seats

Applications will need to be submitted for review to replace empty seats

Curriculum Coordinating Council (CCC)

Represents all District educators

Will include a Board Member

Will report to the Citizen’s Advisory Council (CAC)

Develops a long range plan in 4 to 5 year cycles

CCC - YEAR 1 Creates Math SAC Makes decisions regarding implementation

requirements Begins discussions of mastery, grading,

homework, report cards, and RtI Creates plan for extended learning outside the

school day for both enrichment and additional learning support

Makes decisions about assessments Initiates discussion and possible revision of

mission statement; purpose statement…10 words or less

CCC – Beyond Year 1 Meets monthly Incorporates the mission Integrates staff development Monitors progress of organization Facilitates implementation process with

administrators Convert external pressure (something

new from the State) into positive action

CONTENT SAC = SCIENCE

What about… Transitional outcomes will be implemented the first

year – the higher the grade level the increase in transitional outcomes

This will be Board Policy – there are administrative ramifications when a teacher chooses not to teach the curriculum

The policy is the thread that creates the continuum not the people

How do we, as YMS professional educators,

continue to create change in our instruction to improve student

learning through our PLCs while this District change takes

place?

Our Foundation is Set

With Common Core

We Build the Structure

Using Curriculum Mapper

We Frame the Structure

With Instructional Strategies Similarities and differences Summarizing and note-taking Reinforcing effort and providing feedback Homework and practice Nonlinguistic representations Cooperative learning Setting objectives and providing feedback Generating and testing hypotheses Cues, questions, and advance organizers

Always Asking Why… Why am I teaching this lesson? Why do I want my students to learn this

lesson? Why are our students successful? Why are our students not successful? Why is this important to students right

now?

Who dares to teach

must never cease

to learn
