Targeted Skills Assessments/Formative Assessments
Additional Support is available with the development of a crosswalk for
transition support to the updated 2023 Arkansas ELA standards, advanced skills (AP Skills),
and standardized testing support (transitioning to ATLAS).
Please note: On many of our AR AIMS LTF Infused Curriculum Resource Google Support Sites pacing guides are included to serve as suggested pacing. Many teachers need some idea of how long an activity is expected to last, what activities link together to form a “lesson” or series of lessons, and other advice or suggestions from the author of the site. The pacing guides match activities and lessons to Arkansas Standards so that a teacher can be sure each standard is covered if they choose to utilize the pacing guides for an entire unit or by selecting appropriate lessons/activities to meet their instructional needs. Teachers may also choose to use the Google Site as a resource to supplement curriculum that is already in use. Teachers are encouraged to use the sites in the way that will best meet their needs; the sites can be especially valuable to inexperienced teachers such as those in their first year in order to give them a foundation of support materials that will work to meet a wide range of instructional needs. AR AIMS works with districts all over the state, both public and private. Most of the materials on the Google Sites are “Google based” (Google Documents, Google Slides, Google Forms) so they are easily edited. Teachers are encouraged to add their own ideas, delete things that don’t apply, and adjust as needed. The teacher, along with administrators within their district, know the needs of their students the best. The AR AIMS LTF Infused Instructional Support sites are updated regularly to reflect new standards and changes in Arkansas education.
