District Sample Curriculum Project
Colorado's District Sample Curriculum Project brought together educators from across the state to build curriculum support resources for the successful implementation of the Colorado Academic Standards. The project, under the guidance of the Standards and Instructional Support team, evolved over four phases and involved educators from 121 school districts:
- Educators in Phase I (Fall 2012) translated the Colorado Academic Standards into curriculum overview samples.
- Educators in Phase II (Spring 2013) provided feedback on the project, refined the curriculum overview samples, and directed future project work.
- Educators in Phase III (Fall 2013-Winter 2015) developed instructional units based on the curriculum overview samples.
- Educators in Phase IV (Summer 2016) came together to discuss instructional shifts within their disciplines and engaged in reflective lesson planning.
The mathematics curriculum overview samples for covered kindergarten through high school, with separate overviews for both traditional (Algebra-Geometry-Algebra 2) and integrated high school math course sequences. The mathematics instructional unit samples included at least one unit for each grade level from kindergarten through high school.
