Backward Design
“To begin with the end in mind means
to start with a clear understanding
of your destination. It means to
know where you’re going so that
you better understand where you
are now so that the steps you take
are always in the right direction.”
From The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by

Assumptions about a Local Accountability
System and Data-Driven Instruction
 Collaboratively building
a local accountability
system enhances
school/district culture
 Limiting and ‘unpacking’
essential standards
supports the
development of
formative assessment
practice, differentiated
instruction, and
improved student
performance and
understanding
 Timely, targeted
assessment data
provides teachers with
the opportunity to inform
instruction and
individualize learning
opportunities
 Immediate access to
and use of data
significantly influences
teacher pedagogy and
student performance
WestEd.org
How your work on assessments connects
with your development of SLOs and the
development of related compensations
 Identifying mastery
learning objectives is
essential in creating
effective performance
assessments
 Benchmark (interim)
testing is the “glue” for
an effective local
accountability system
 Formative Assessment
practice informs
differentiated instruction
and provides
opportunities for all
students to mastery
concepts and skills, and
perform at higher
achievement levels

Why do we need essential standards?
“If American educators were to
adequately cover all of the
knowledge identified in the current
set of standards for the core subject
areas, it might take as much as 22
years of schooling (literally!) within
the current structure.”
From Awash in a Sea of Standards by Robert J.
Marzano and John S. Kendall

Why do we need essential standards?
Or to put it another way…..
We would be going to school from
kindergarten through grade 21!
WestEd.org
Essential (or Benchmark) Standards
 Subset of state
standards
 Prioritized in terms of:
 Taught on calendar
 Leverage
 Mastery “guaranteed”
 Formative assessments
 Intervention
opportunities
 Readiness
 Not license to eliminate
 Endurance
 Required for state
assessments
 Vertical and
horizontal alignment

WestEd.org
Essential (or Benchmark) Standards
What makes a standard essential?
 It has endurance. Will this provide students with
knowledge and skills that will be of value beyond a
single test date?
 It provides leverage. Will this provide knowledge
and skills that will be of value in multiple disciplines?
 It ensures readiness for the next level of learning.
Will this provide students with essential knowledge and
skills that are necessary for success in the next grade or
next level of instruction?
 It is regularly assessed by the state. Is this a
standard that students have failed to master?
WestEd.org
Standards Based Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment
WestEd.org
Essential (or Benchmark) Standards
What considerations need to be made to
identify essential standards?
 Consider teaching order
 Re-write in student friendly language
 Consider allotment of time to teach to
mastery
 Review previous performance data
 Sequence across grade levels
 Vertical and horizontal alignment

Workshop Essential Questions
1. How are grade level expectations (standards)
unpacked? Why do we need to unpack them?
Used by permission by WestEd for presentations
within the Northern Humboldt District
WestEd.org
35
Rationale
(See page 17 Module 5)
Unpacking grade level expectations will provide a
simple and highly effective way to manage
standards.
Unpacked grade level expectations can help you
address the appropriate cognitive depth for
classroom instruction and assessment.

Definition
“Unpacking standard expectations” means
to identify the concepts and skills found in
the state standards.
IN OTHER WORDS. . .
Used by permission by WestEd for presentations
within the Northern Humboldt District
WestEd.org
37
It means to examine the standards to determine
exactly what students need to:
1. know (the content/concept)
2. be able to do (the skill) considering
3. New Bloom’s (identifying the level of rigor to teach
students the concepts and skills)
And
4. Webb’s Depth of Knowledge (to focus on how deeply a
student has to know the content in order to respond)

Closure
Look back at your “Unpacked Standards”,
ask yourself:
1.
Could you put away the original standard(s)confidently, plan instruction and
assessment using only your graphic organizer, knowing that you have
faithfully captured every important concept and skill students need to learn?
2. Would other educators identify the same
concepts and skills?
If the answer to both questions is yes, congratulations!
You have successfully “Unpacked a Standard”!

Performance Levels
• Turn to page 36 and 37
• Box 1 show the achievement distributions
comparing conventional, mastery and tutorial
approaches to learning and instruction.
• Box 2 notes the six key characteristics of
effective assessments.
•Box 3 shows that a comprehensive school
program is needed to inform practice and
program decisions leading to students
performing at the proficient levels.
WestEd.org
Performance Levels
The purpose of Benchmark and Formative Assessments is;
• to provide timely appropriate feedback to inform
instruction,
•to diagnose and move students up levels, and
• to find out what students have and have not learned at a
proficient level in time to intervene.
WestEd.org
Performance Levels
Why do we suggest 4 to 5 performance levels?
• Performance levels become the foundation for
scoring scales defined by the district.
• The performance levels help to group students
for targeted interventions for improvement.
• A purpose of assessment becomes the
identification of student performance to match
targeted instructional strategies and assist each
student in mastery of district benchmark and
state standards.

These have often already been set by the DOE
with ATI Galileo for current benchmark/interim
assessments.
