Creating District Curriculum in CIITS
TERMINOLOGYCurriculum– a syllabus covering an ENTIRE course (e.g., year or semester) that is
relevant to one subject and grade level
Curricular Unit – a term that is used to represent how the school year is broken up
This can differ by school type and/or subject area.• For example: Science grades K-5 may divide the school year in to
six week cycles, while HS Math courses may segment the year into Semesters.
Instructional Unit – divides the Curricular Unit into smaller topics
Lesson Plan – unit of instruction that addresses a theme/topic related to the
Instructional Unit
TERMINOLOGY
Resource– a material to support instruction
• a link to video or an educational website• a PowerPoint presentation• a handout for students
Assessment– a tool to be used to measure learning (rubric, unit test, quiz)– this is NOT a benchmark assessment or a classroom assessment
created in the Assessment Admin module
