B2.4 Pace and Sequence

The team uses the Unit Dependency Chart to plan units and maintain coherence when adjustments are needed due to local requirements.

Implementing

Teachers plan to complete all units in the school year.

Teachers plan to teach units in the intended order or use the Unit Dependency Chart to reorder units to address local requirements without breaking coherence.

Developing

Teachers plan to complete most units in the school year.

Teachers may plan to break coherence by reordering units due to competing local requirements.

Organizing

Teachers do not plan to complete most units in the allotted time.

Teachers may plan to break coherence by reordering units due to preference.

Reflect

How many units are you on track to complete this year? How does that compare to last year?
How will you adjust instruction in subsequent years, based on this year’s pacing?
What key factors inform the unit sequence you use?
To what extent does your school teach units in the given sequence? How do you know?
How do you use the Unit Dependency Chart to plan unit sequencing? If sequencing has been modified, to what extent does the modified plan reflect the intent of the curriculum?
