The Center offers professional learning support for utilizing learning progressions for Iowa's six Universal Constructs, which are part of Iowa's required Iowa Academic Standards. Each progression includes "I can" statements that are developmentally appropriate for the associated grade band (e.g., the grade band above includes grades 3-5, and the progression on the top left includes all four grade bands including K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12) across three core skills for that Construct. Also included in our support materials are teacher resources and professional learning sequences for your context. Contact us to learn more!
