Backwards Design

Mrs. Price (formerly Ms. DuVal) has taught each of these five Family and Consumer Sciences courses as well as the general CTE course CC582YA: Exploring Personal Characteristics and Careers. 

A careful planner, she utilizes backwards design to create a long-term plan prior to the beginning of each quarter from which daily/weekly lesson plans can then be written. Two LTP examples and a sample weekly lesson plan are included below. 

Her classes have not been a full hour in length, but 45 minutes in class and 15 minutes of daily homework meet the required instructional hours.
