As we prepare for the Summer 2013 Curriculum Writer’s Cadre, please provide us with the following information that can guide our work.
I. Identify a 2012-13 CRM Model Lesson or Resource Portfolio you used / adapted: Subject Area________; Six/Nine Wks_____; Unit_____; Arc_____
Describe why this resource worked especially well with your instruction or
what did not work well with this lesson / resource, why it did not, and how might the lesson / resource be modified for 2013-14.
II. Is there a particular Unit Topic, Concept, Literacy/Vocabulary issue in your grade-level course that you are especially in need of support resources
that currently the curriculum documents do not adequately support? List examples, as well as recommendations for each example provided of
support resources you’ve come across and for which you have experienced success in using.

III. As is customary, concerns regarding Pacing in each subject area will be re-examined. Keeping in mind that it is the goal in State-assessed courses
to cover all standards by the date of the State assessments, provide recommendations for pacing adjustments here. Should you be requesting
more time be spent on any topic, please remember to provide recommendations for where in the curriculum to balance such an adjustment.
Please remember that the Curriculum team is always eager to receive Model Lessons / Resource suggestions for review in our office. Particularly at this time of year we encourage you to
submit such items for your colleagues to review during the Summer 2013 Curriculum Writer’s Cadre. All Model Lessons should be submitted on the form provided on the Social Studies
Curriculum Website: (go to: Resources > Web Resources > Lesson Planning and look for the AISD Apple logo in the right-side column)

What did we miss in 2012-13? Was there a TEKS Student Expectation that wasn’t tested that should have been? Or, a Student Expectation on which your own students exhibited an
exceptional High Need? Please remember that the Curriculum team is always eager to receive suggested District Assessment Items for review in our office. Particularly at this time of
year we encourage you to submit such items for your colleagues to review during the Summer 2013 Curriculum Writer’s Cadre. Email these to jjolliff@austinisd.org)
