What is mapping?• calendar based curriculum mapping is a process
for collecting data representative of the operational (real) curriculum in a school and/or district
• curriculum maps are like a school’s manuscript
Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting
![Page 5: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Curriculum Mapping is a process which begins…
• With the instructor listing content ( who knows better)• When it is being taught (how much time is spent)• What skills are use to teach content• We then add state standards (makes it obvious what
standards are not being addressed)• Schools/teachers become more aware of the flow of
the curriculum horizontally (all classrooms in grade one) and vertically (grade to grade)Instructors need to keep the needs of the students in
mind.
![Page 6: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Mapping Process Can Improve School Culture
• Shared sense of purpose• Opportunity to SHARE what you do in the
classroom (collaboration)• Time to reflect• Builds learning communities• Increased Test Scores• Make what students learn in one grade connect
with what they will learn in the next grade• Accountability to self, students, and parents
![Page 7: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Administrator Support is Crucial
• Must communicate the process to school board and parents
(parent portal on DDN Campus- possibly) (open house)• Be flexible and forgiving in order to learn
what is taught and not taught.• Maps are not used for evaluation
![Page 8: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why Create Curriculum Maps?• Communication and Reflection We rarely have these conversations!
– identify what occurs throughout the entire school year
– a picture of students’ experience from grade to grade
– teacher expectations to parents and students
• Locates gaps, repetitions, areas for integration, assessments
• Authentic alignment to standards
• Accountability
• New teachers
• Defines expectationsSusan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting

Accountability• No Child Left Behind Act
– Emphasis on Literacy
• Literacy – 40% of all math errors on standardized tests are
reading errors– Daily exposure to fiction and nonfiction texts– Vocabulary instruction across all content areas– All teachers are reading and writing teachers
• Higher Order Thinking Skills – Comprehending texts, predicting outcomes,
summarizing, clarifying, questioning and visualizing

![Page 10: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What information is collected on the map?
• Content (What is taught)• Skills (What students will do)• Assessments (This is how you find
out if they really know)• Standards (Meet by teaching skills)• Essential Questions*-(overarching
question)

![Page 11: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Content can be:
• discipline - focus on specific knowledge, or content area
• interdisciplinary – combination of one or two disciplines to examine a common focus
Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting
![Page 12: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Content: topics/concepts/issues/problems/
themes– units of study or topics (dinosaurs, energy, community, bears)
– specific books: A Tale of Two Cities (Is a title to specific)
– poetry
– measurement
– estimation
– Bill of Rights
– paragraphs
– phonics
– biology: Ecosystems
– geometry: if-then statements, converses and postulates

Skills• precise skills can be assessed, observed and
described in specific terms – unlike general processes – and connected to assessments and standards
• This is often the most challenging aspect of mapping. • The skills are what the kids do to learn the content!• Look at lists of action verbs to help you as you prepare
your maps.

Examples of Precise Skills• finding main idea and supporting details• alphabetizing to the second letter• identify subjects and predicates• interpret data represented in a graph• identify root words, suffixes and prefixes• label the parts of a friendly letter• explain the difference between fact and opinion• Locate and identify parts of a book: table of contents, index and
glossary• compare and contrast the benefits, costs and limitations of nuclear
power• define the hypothesis and conclusion of an “if-then” statement• analyze six primary documents written by Martin Luther

Step 1: Collecting the data• each teacher completes a map
- individually• All teachers follow the same
format (see format)• record content, skills,
assessments and standards• use computers – it simplifies
data collection, analysis and revision
• This is the first draft• Content, Skills and Standards
must stay the same, but “how”you teach and “assess” them with whatever you are comfortable with

Essential Questions• Never really answerable questions that engage students
in learning• You can change the standard into the Essential
Question• Brings content “to life”• Helps students and teachers “go deep” into the content• Avoids activity with little meaning-a way of organizing
content• Designing Essential Question Worksheet Newspaper activity

Standards Alignment
• What is true alignment– True alignment versus “coverage”
• How to document the standards– Number codes
– Goals
– Indicators
– Benchmarks• Grade level
• Clearly connected to assessment Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting

The Curriculum Mapping Process
• Step 1: Collecting the data: each teacher creates a map individually• (Monday afternoon and all day on Tuesday)• Step 2: First read-through: teachers read each other’s maps also done • individually (Tuesday evening)• Step 3: Small mixed group review: sharing findings from editing• (Wednesday 8:30-10:00=trade maps+small group discussion)• Step 4: Large group comparisons: sharing findings from small group review• (Wednesday 10:15-11:00)• Step 5: Determine immediate revision points• Step 6: Determine points requiring some research and planning• Step 7: Plan for next review cycle

Approximate Time• elementary - 45 min. - 1
hour for content; 2-3 hours for skills and assessments – ½ day
• *K-2 Lang. Arts will take longer
• secondary - 45 min. per prep for content; 2 hours per prep for skills and assessments½ day

Step 2: Editing - Individual first read-through
Tuesday evening • each teacher reads a set of maps (at
the site)– At first elementary teachers may want
to edit maps one grade level above and below or your grade level
– Content specific teachers may want to edit maps closest to their own content area
• Ultimately everyone will be familiar with all maps
• Time: 2-3 hours based on editing 10 – 12 maps – this does not have to be done at one sitting
![Page 40: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Edit for timeliness• review the maps for
current issues, new teaching methods, materials and new types of assessment
• Technology – Software

Identify curriculum repetitions and gaps
• recognize the difference between repetitions and redundancies
• spiraling is the goal
Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting
• examine maps for gaps in:
-content
-skills
-standards
-assessments

Edit for coherence
• examine maps for a solid match between the content, skills, standards and assessments– vertically
– horizontally

Editing Questions Often Asked By Teachers
• What am I suppose to look for?• I don’t teach this subject area so how can I
meaningfully edit?• How long should this take?• Do I have to do it alone?
What are your questions/concerns about this phase?
Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting
![Page 45: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Things to think about when you are editing…
• Is it parent, student, teacher friendly?• Is everything on the map (all skills)?• Is there a sequence?• Did it flow smoothly?• Were there a variety of assessments?• Were “action verbs” used in the skill section?• Is it specific, but not wordy?• Have a variety of standards been met?• Have technology, study skills, research skills, problem
solving, high-order thinking skills been integrated?

Step 3: Small Mixed Small Group Review (8:30-10:00)
• groups of 5-6 faculty members are formed
• it’s best if the groups consist of individuals who do not work together
• looking at the “big picture”
• results are compiled• Based on open/honest
communication

Real Conversations About Real Data: The Best Part
Strategies:• all teachers must review all or
specific groups of maps at a site• appoint a recorder – a tool for
recording the findings helps – see template
• appoint a facilitator to monitor the time and discussion
• rules for discussion – not a time for debate

Questions To Consider Before Small Group Review
• Safety?• How often do your teachers get together to discuss
teaching issues?• How do you want the groups to be configured?
What are your questions/concerns about this step?

Small Group Review Directions
•As you work in small groups and discuss your edited maps please keep in mind the following:
•Groups are comprised of 6-8 faculty members representative of a wide range of grade levels.
• Do not try to “solve” anything. This is the time to merely state what you found. KEEP FOCUSED.
•This is the time to look at the “big picture” of your curriculum
•Record on the form the gaps, redundancies, meaningful assessments and new understandings (other) you have discussed.There should be NO JUDGEMENT!!!

Step 4: Large Group Review(10:15-11:00)
• small group findings are shared with entire faculty
• review findings and identify emerging patterns
• session is facilitated by principal, teacher leader or external facilitator

Examples of Group Review
• We need a list of core trade books being taught at grades K-8
• How do we as a district assess writing
• How and when is grammar taught and assessed?

Examples of Group Review Results• Math
– Fractions – at what grade levels are parts and whole fractions being introduced? When and how is it being assessed?
– How and when are analyzing graphs and charts being taught?
– How are basic math facts taught and assessed (H.S. math classes still reviewing???)
• Language Arts– We need a list of core trade
books being taught at grades K-8th
– How is mastery of phonics defined?
– How do we as a district assess writing?
– How and when is grammar taught and assessed?
• Social Studies– We need to address the
repetitions as a K-12 District
• i.e. Civil War– When are the specific U.S.
time periods taught – at what grade level?

Step 5: Determine Areas for Immediate Revision
• faculty analyzes results and identifies those areas that can be handled by the site with relative ease
• a timetable is established for revisions
![Page 54: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Step 6: Determine Areas Requiring Long Term Planning
• faculty identifies areas requiring more in-depth investigation
• a district curriculum cabinet is developed that will review these matters
![Page 55: Curriculum Mapping Based on the work of Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Susan Udelhofen Susan Udelhofen/SU-Consulting](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032802/56649dfe5503460f94ae5f61/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
The First Phase Is Complete But It’s Just the Beginning
• The result should not be a group of photocopied maps placed in a curriculum binder and perceived as:
Now, my maps are completed and I’m finished!
• The authentic and meaningful curriculum modification, revision, and improvement begins
