Essential Standards: secondary Flex Time 4 Review 5 Administration 2-3 Loss of Instructional Days 6 Total 180 90 Rationale for Design: This history curriculum map yearlong snapshot is designed in such a way that the units follow the Essential Standards in the order in which they are listed, with each unit representing an Essential Standard. I constructed my units in this fashion for two reasons, with those reasons being (1) simplicity, and (2) the chronology and thematic progression throughout the Essential Standards is adequate enough, in my opinion, to follow as a curriculum guide. The way in which I prioritized the curriculum map was through an analysis of released test questions per Essential Standard, where I discovered that with the exception of the second and last standard, each standard is tested with the same percentage of questions. As a result, I allowed 10-12 for teaching standard WH.H.2 and WH.H.8, and only 6-8 for the remainder of the standards. One may also notice the my first unit is Historical Thinking and Historical Skills. This unit is intended to be a primer for the remainder of my course, where I plan to spend approximately five formatively assessing my students for their current level of historical understanding while also ensuring that they are exposed to aspects of historical thinking, historical skills, and the historical concepts and themes as covered in the Common Core and C3 Framework. One will also notice that for Unit 1 s, I have written 0%-100%, as these fundamental historical skills, concepts, and themes will be present in every single unit to some degree, despite the fact that the standards from WH.H.1 are not explicitly tested for on the. 6
