Colorado's District Sample Curriculum Project

All the curriculum samples are accessible by content area and by grade levels and will be housed here until their permanent home is established at eNet Colorado. Remember that we would love to get feedback regarding the use for and desired supports around the samples.

Teacher-created curriculum samples

This fall, over 500 Colorado educators, representing 61 school districts, participated in curriculum design workshops that resulted in the creation of 670 curriculum samples based on the Colorado Academic Standards (CAS). Utilizing a Colorado-designed and refined template, the samples provide organizing structures for addressing the grade-level expectations (GLEs), evidence outcomes (EOs) and 21st Century Skills that build students’ mastery of the standards at each grade level. As voluntary resources for districts, the samples:

• Represent the translation of the CAS into unit overviews for all (10) content areas, grades k-12
• Illuminate possibilities for sequencing grade-level and content-specific standards across courses/years
• Offer one possible foundation for exploring standards-based unit and lesson-plan development
