Dear MTSD Community, To view the public curriculum documents, click here. I am delighted to present the new link to the Montgomery Township Schools' curriculum site! Here you will find updated curricula, written collaboratively and based on the most recent NJ Core Curriculum Content Standards and the newly adopted Common Core National Standards for English Language Arts and Mathematics. This purpose of this site is to communicate clearly articulated curricula across grade levels and content areas to teachers, parents and students. Placing the curriculum online enables teachers to continually revise and refine the curriculum, and it allows Montgomery Schools to share the educational program with the entire school community. As you view the curricula, it is important to know that they are fluid documents. They represent a point in time. They differ in levels of completion, scope, and detail. You may find that there are fine edits to make and/or units that are not yet written. We might have waited until all the documents were in perfect form, but have made the decision to proceed in the spirit of open communication. Teachers will be routinely reviewing, refining and revising the documents to best serve our students throughout this year and periodically as the need arises. We are pleased that you will be able to follow the educational program offered to Montgomery Township School District students. The curriculum is arranged by course and by unit. For each course, you will find a Course Calendar. From this Course Calendar, you will be able to open and explore the units that comprise the course. Specifically, for each unit, you will see: State and/or national standards Rationale for teaching the unit Enduring Understandings Essential Questions Content - What students should know Skills - What students should be able to do Key terms
Sincerely,
Thomas E.C. Barclay Assistant Superintendent for Schools for Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment tbarclay@mtsd.us
