Technical Theatre: Design and Prodction Curriculum 2015-2016 0400110– MS Technical Theatre: Design and Production CURRICULUM MAPS Grades 6-8 Vision Statement of Volusia County Schools Through the individual commitment of all, our students will graduate with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to be successful contributors to our democratic society. The School District of Volusia County The School Board of Volusia County Mrs. Linda Costello, Chairman Mrs. Ida Wright, Vice‐Chairman Mrs. Linda Cuthbert Dr. John Hill Mrs. Melody Johnson Superintendent of Schools Mr. James T. Russell Chief Academic Officer Ms. Teresa Marcks Executive Director K‐12 Curriculum Ms. Barbara Head Performing Arts Specialist Dr. Monty Musgrave Interpreting the Curriculum Maps Measurement Topic: The overarching organizational structure used to group content/concepts within the curriculum map Pacing: The recommended time period within the year for instruction related to the essential questions to occur Essential Questions: The overarching question(s) that will serve to guide instruction and to push students to higher levels of thinking. Essential questions should guide students to the heart of the big idea or content and should meet the following characteristics: A. Endurance: important for the long term B. Leverage: applicable to or connected with many academic disciplines or concepts C. Readiness for the next level of learning: prepares students for success in the next grade/course D. Clarity: provides clear and common understanding E. Measurable: able to be assessed Concepts/Content: A list of the big ideas, broad topics, or major underlying concepts covered in the development of the essential questions Learning Targets/Skills: The content knowledge, processes, and enabling skills that will ensure successful mastery of the essential questions Benchmarks: The Sunshine State Standards aligned with the learning targets and skills (see next page) Key Terminology: The content vocabulary and other key terms and phrases with which students should be familiar and that support mastery of the learning targets, skills and essential questions Activities and Resources: A suggested listing of high quality, appropriate materials, strategies, lessons, textbooks, videos and other media sources that are aligned with the learning targets, skills and essential questions Assessment: A list of district‐required and optional classroom assessments at are aligned with the learning targets, skills and essential questions. Assessments should include formative assessments to monitor progress and inform instruction as well as summative assessments for grading and reporting purposes. ************************************************************* The curriculum maps for theatre are divided into four sections, which align with the Big Ideas of the NGSSS: C – Critical Thinking and Reflection; S – Skills, Techniques, and Processes; O – Organizational Structure; H – Historical and Global Connections; F – Innovation, Technology, and the Future. It is common practice that many or most of the sections, and the concepts associated with them, are taught and reinforced throughout the year. The purpose of delineation into separate sections is for assessment purposes. Teachers are expected to use most or all of the maps simultaneously. Further, the lessons provided in each map (which align with the Measurement Topics) are suggestions; teachers may use additional or substitute lessons/materials as long as the learning targets, vocabulary, standards, and essential questions are addressed. It is hoped that by using this format, teachers will focus assessments guided by the learning targets of the maps while continuing to provide a comprehensive course of theatre study. NEXT GENERATION SUNSHINE STATE STANDARDS USERS’ GUIDE FOR ALL USERS: A coding system is used in all curriculum guides to identify NGSSS and course Content Statements. Benchmark Code: For easy reference, each strand, standard, and benchmark has been assigned a unique identification code. For example: TH.68.C.1.1 Content Area Grade Level Big Idea Enduring Understanding Benchmark Big Ideas C – Critical Thinking and Reflection S – Skills, Techniques, and Processes O – Organizational Structure H – Historical and Global Connections F – Innovation, Technology, and the Future The first two letters of the code identify the content area (e.g., TH for theatre). The next number(s) identify the grade level. The next letter (C, S, O, H, or F) identifies the big idea. The next number identifies the enduring understanding, and the last number identifies the benchmark under the grade cluster within the standard.
