Curriculum Map
Grade 11
2011-2012
First of all, we’d like to thank you, the teacher, for guiding our students in their endeavor to master the Next Generation English
Language Arts Sunshine State Standards (http://www.floridastandards.org/homepage/index.aspx). Through your efforts, our “students
will complete school prepared for ongoing learning as well as community and global responsibilities,” as stated in our CCPS Vision
Statement.
In essence, there are three major components involved in lesson planning:
Standards (What do I want my students to know?),
Materials (What will my students read/use/manipulate?),
and Checks for Understanding (How will I know if my students mastered the standard?).
This curriculum map is a wonderful document that we provide you to guide your instructional planning. In order to eliminate
confusion about the term “fidelity,” we offer you these qualifiers:
Teachers must demonstrate that their students are mastering the standards. The district expectation is that teachers will use
SpringBoard as the curricular framework, reinforced by Prentice Hall selections throughout the year to help their students
master the standards. Your CCPS literacy curriculum maps provide direction in the use of all CCPS adopted resources to meet
student needs, based on the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards.
When analyzing student data, it may prove beneficial to your students to carefully and meaningfully add to a SpringBoard
activity, or, conversely, to carefully and meaningfully delete a SpringBoard activity. In your efforts to support our students’
mastery of the standards, please exercise your autonomy as an expert to make these careful and meaningful curricular
modifications. With the SpringBoard system as your framework, you are encouraged to blend the resources you find in this
curriculum map to meet students’ needs.
The department of Secondary Literacy is very proud to share this outstanding document with you. Special recognition is owed to our
SpringBoard liaison, Kristal Ayres; and our SpringBoard curriculum map authors, Wylie Bertuna, Daniel Boddison, Allison
Brietenstine, Marci Garner, and Sara Treiser.
