Scope and Sequence 2018-2019
The primary purpose of assessment and evaluation is to provide feedback in order to
improve student learning.
IB Mission Statement
The International Baccalaureate aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. To this end the organization works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment. These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
Korea Foreign School Mission Statement
Korea Foreign School enables students to achieve academic excellence while being encouraged to be global leaders who promote global peace through equity, innovation, diversity, integrity, community, care for the environment and self-respect.
1
Rationale
The purpose of this document is provide an overview of the scope and sequences we use to guide our teaching and learning at KFS.
Scope and Sequence Structure
The KFS Scope and Sequence is organized with the following structure: The KFS Scope and sequence documents mirror a similar organizational structure to that of the IBPYP Scope and Sequence documents.
Strand names, descriptions, conceptual understandings, and related concepts are chosen from the applicable PYP scope and sequence documents for that subject, with the exception of the ELL Speaking and Listening descriptions, which are take from the ACFTL documents.
Objectives and criteria from the Common Core, AERO, NGSS, PYP, and ACTFL were measured against PYP Scope and Sequence documents and placed into appropriate strands to create a clear framework for building conceptual understanding within the curriculum.
Objectives and Performance Criteria Overview
Korea Foreign School utilizes standards and benchmarks from the following educational organizations as a guide to planning, teaching, and assessing in order to provide a vertically aligned curriculum that provides our students with a rich conceptually based curriculum.
Literacy & Math: The Common Core State Standards
“The Common Core is a set of high-quality academic standards in mathematics and English language arts/literacy (ELA). These learning goals outline what a student should know and be able to do at the end of each grade. The standards were created to ensure that all students graduate from high school with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in college, career, and life, regardless of where they live.
2
The Common Core is informed by the highest, most effective standards from states across the United States and countries around the world. The standards define the knowledge and skills students should gain throughout their K-12 education in order to graduate high school prepared to succeed in entry-level careers, introductory academic college courses, and workforce training programs” (About).
Science: The Next Generation Science Standards
“The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are K–12 science content standards [which] set the expectations for what students should know and be able to do. A high-quality science education means that students will develop an in-depth understanding of content and develop key skills—communication, collaboration, inquiry, problem solving, and flexibility—that will serve them throughout their educational and professional lives. The NGSS were developed by states to improve science education for all students. These standards give local educators the flexibility to design classroom learning experiences that stimulate students’ interests in science and prepares them for college, careers, and citizenship” (Next Generation).
Social Studies: American Education Reaches Out (AERO) Common Core Plus
“AERO is a project supported by the U.S. State Department’s Office of Overseas Schools (A/OPR/OS) and the Overseas Schools Advisory Council to assist schools in developing and implementing standards-based curricula. AERO provides a framework for curriculum consistency across grades K-12 and for stability of curriculum in overseas schools. This effort is in alignment with research-based trends in the development of curriculum worldwide” (About AERO). “The following guidance on unit development is intended to assist teachers in developing rich units that help students understand both the concepts in the AERO Social Studies standards and benchmarks and the specific cultural/anthropological, economic, geographic, historical, political, and sociological content from different historical periods and global regions” (AERO).
International Baccalaureate Scope and Sequence
Arts
“Arts engage students in creative processes through which they explore and experiment in a continual cycle of action and reflection. Such creative processes are seen by the PYP as the driving force in learning through inquiry. From an early age, students have the opportunity to develop genuine interests, to give careful consideration to their work and to become self-critical and reflective. Reflecting on and evaluating their own work and the work of others is vital, and empowers students to take intellectual risks. Exposure to and experience with arts opens doors to questions about life and learning. The process of making and appreciating arts is gratifying and will encourage students to continue creating throughout their lives. Two common strands have been identified that apply across the different art forms and define the critical artistic processes. These intrinsically connected strands are concept-driven and have been designed to interact with each other, working together to support the overall development of the students” (Arts).
3
PSPE
“Physical education in a PYP school should be more than just student participation in sports and games. Its purpose should be to develop a combination of transferable skills promoting physical, intellectual, emotional and social development; to encourage present and future choices that contribute to long-term healthy living; and to understand the cultural significance of physical activities for individuals and communities. Therefore, in the PYP, there should be specific opportunities for learning about movement and through movement in a range of contexts.
In this document, the development of overall well-being is defined through three common strands that have relevance to all teachers: identity, active living and interactions. These strands are concept driven and have been designed to interact with each other, working together to support the overall development of students” (Personal). Language Acquisition “The ability to communicate in a variety of modes in more than one language is essential to the concept of an international education that promotes multilingualism and intercultural understanding, both of which are central to the IB’s mission.[...] To assist in achieving these broader goals, this guide provides both teachers and students with clear aims and objectives for language acquisition” (Language).
English Language Learning: American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages
“The 2017 NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements, the result of collaboration between the National Council of State Supervisors for Languages (NCSSFL) and the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) guide:
● Language learners to identify and set learning goals and chart their progress towards language and intercultural proficiency;
● Educators to write communication learning targets for curriculum, unit and lesson plans; ● Stakeholders to clarify how well learners at different stages can communicate”
(NCSSFL-ACTFL).

Grade One Literacy Scope and Sequence
Oral Language Viewing and Presenting Written Language: Writing
Oral language encompasses all aspects of
listening and speaking—skills that are essential
for ongoing language development, for learning
and for relating to others. Listening requires
active and conscious attention in order to make
sense of what is heard. Purposeful talk enables
learners to articulate thoughts as they construct
and reconstruct meaning to understand the
world around them. Oral language involves
recognizing and using certain types of language
according to the audience and purposes
The receptive processes (viewing) and expressive
processes (presenting) are connected and allow
for reciprocal growth in understanding; neither
process has meaning except in relation to the
other. These processes involve interpreting,
using and constructing visuals and multimedia in
a variety of situations and for a range of
purposes and audiences. Visual texts may be
paper, electronic or live, observable forms of
communication that are consciously constructed
to convey meaning and immediately engage
viewers, allowing them instant access to data.
Learning to interpret this data, and to
understand and use different media, are
invaluable life skills.
Writing allows us to organize and communicate
thoughts, ideas and information in a visible and
tangible way. Writing is primarily concerned with
communicating meaning and intention. Over
time, writing involves developing a variety of
structures, strategies and literary techniques
(spelling, grammar, plot, character, punctuation,
voice) and applying them with increasing skill and
effectiveness.

Grade One Math Scope and Sequence Data Handling Measurement Shape and Space Pattern and Function Number
Data handling allows us to
make a summary of what we
know about the world and to
make inferences about what
we do not know.
● Data can be collected,
organized, represented and
summarized in a variety of
ways to highlight similarities,
differences and trends; the
chosen format should
illustrate the information
without bias or distortion.
● Probability can be
expressed qualitatively by
using terms such as
“unlikely”, “certain” or
“impossible”. It can be
expressed quantitatively on
a numerical scale.
To measure is to attach a
number to a quantity using a
chosen unit. Since the
attributes being measured
are continuous, ways must
be found to deal with
quantities that fall between
numbers. It is important to
know how accurate a
measurement needs to be
or can ever be.
The regions, paths and
boundaries of natural space
can be described by shape.
An understanding of the
interrelationships of shape
allows us to interpret,
understand and appreciate
our two-dimensional (2D)
and three-dimensional (3D)
world.
To identify pattern is to
begin to understand how
mathematics applies to the
world in which we live. The
repetitive features of
patterns can be identified
and described as
generalized rules called
“functions”. This builds a
foundation for the later
study of algebra.
Our number system is a
language for describing
quantities and the
relationships between
quantities. For example, the
value attributed to a digit
depends on its place within
a base system.
Numbers are used to
interpret information, make
decisions and solve
problems. For example, the
operations of addition,
subtraction, multiplication
and division are related to
one another and are used to
process information in order
to solve problems. The
degree of precision needed
in calculating depends on
how the result will be used.
Conceptual Understandings
Information can be
expressed as organized and
structured data.
Objects and events can be
organized in different ways.
Conceptual Understandings
Standard units allow us to
have a common language to
identify, compare, order,
and sequence objects and
events
We use tools to measure the
attributes of objects and
events
Conceptual Understandings
Shapes can be described
and organized according to
their properties
Some shapes are made up
of parts that repeat in some
way
Specific vocabulary can be
used to describe an object’s
position in space
Conceptual Understandings
Whole numbers exhibit
patterns and relationships
that can be observed and
described.
Patterns can be represented
using numbers and other
symbols.
Conceptual Understandings
The base 10 place value
system is used to represent
numbers and number
relationships
The operations of addition,
subtraction, multiplication
and division are related to
each other and are used to
process information to solve
problems
Estimation allows us to
measure with different
levels of accuracy.
Events can be ordered and
sequenced
Number operations can be
modelled in a variety of
ways.
There are many mental
methods that can be applied
for exact and approximate
computations.

Grade One Arts Scope and Sequence
Creating Responding
The process of creating provides students with opportunities to communicate
distinctive forms of meaning, develop their technical skills, take creative risks,
solve problems and visualize consequences. Students are encouraged to
draw on their imagination, experiences and knowledge of materials and
processes as starting points for creative exploration. They can make
connections between their work and that of other artists to inform their
thinking and to provide inspiration. Both independently and collaboratively,
students participate in creative processes through which they can
communicate ideas and express feelings. The creating strand provides
opportunities for students to explore their personal interests, beliefs and
values and to engage in a personal artistic journey.
The process of responding provides students with opportunities to respond to
their own and other artists’ works and processes, and in so doing develop the
skills of critical analysis, interpretation, evaluation, reflection and
communication. Students will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of
the concepts, methods and elements of dance, drama, music and visual arts,
including using specialized language. Students consider their own and other
artists’ works in context and from different perspectives in order to construct
meaning and inform their own future works and processes.

Grade Two Literacy Scope and Sequence Oral Language Viewing and Presenting Written Language: Writing
Oral language encompasses all aspects of
listening and speaking—skills that are essential
for ongoing language development, for learning
and for relating to others. Listening requires
active and conscious attention in order to make
sense of what is heard. Purposeful talk enables
learners to articulate thoughts as they construct
and reconstruct meaning to understand the
world around them. Oral language involves
recognizing and using certain types of language
according to the audience and purposes.
The receptive processes (viewing) and expressive
processes (presenting) are connected and allow
for reciprocal growth in understanding; neither
process has meaning except in relation to the
other. These processes involve interpreting,
using and constructing visuals and multimedia in
a variety of situations and for a range of
purposes and audiences. Visual texts may be
paper, electronic or live, observable forms of
communication that are consciously constructed
to convey meaning and immediately engage
viewers, allowing them instant access to data.
Learning to interpret this data, and to
understand and use different media, are
invaluable life skills.
Writing allows us to organize and communicate
thoughts, ideas and information in a visible and
tangible way. Writing is primarily concerned with
communicating meaning and intention. Over
time, writing involves developing a variety of
structures, strategies and literary techniques
(spelling, grammar, plot, character, punctuation,
voice) and applying them with increasing skill and
effectiveness.
Conceptual Understandings
People ask questions to learn from others.
People listen to and speak to share thoughts and
feelings.
People interpret message according to their
unique experiences and ways of understanding.
Conceptual Understandings
The pictures, images, and symbols in our
environment have meaning.
People use static and moving images to
communicate ideas and information.
Visual texts can immediately gain our attention.
Conceptual Understandings
The sounds of spoken language can be
represented visually (letters, symbols,
characters).
People write to communicate.
People write to tell about their experiences,
ideas, and feelings.

Grade Two Math Scope and Sequence Data Handling Measurement Shape and Space Pattern and Function Number
Data handling allows us to
make a summary of what we
know about the world and to
make inferences about what
we do not know.
● Data can be collected,
organized, represented and
summarized in a variety of
ways to highlight similarities,
differences and trends; the
chosen format should
illustrate the information
without bias or distortion.
● Probability can be
expressed qualitatively by
using terms such as
“unlikely”, “certain” or
“impossible”. It can be
expressed quantitatively on
a numerical scale.
To measure is to attach a
number to a quantity using a
chosen unit. Since the
attributes being measured
are continuous, ways must
be found to deal with
quantities that fall between
numbers. It is important to
know how accurate a
measurement needs to be
or can ever be.
The regions, paths and
boundaries of natural space
can be described by shape.
An understanding of the
interrelationships of shape
allows us to interpret,
understand and appreciate
our two-dimensional (2D)
and three-dimensional (3D)
world.
To identify pattern is to
begin to understand how
mathematics applies to the
world in which we live. The
repetitive features of
patterns can be identified
and described as
generalized rules called
“functions”. This builds a
foundation for the later
study of algebra.
Our number system is a
language for describing
quantities and the
relationships between
quantities. For example, the
value attributed to a digit
depends on its place within
a base system.
Numbers are used to
interpret information, make
decisions and solve
problems. For example, the
operations of addition,
subtraction, multiplication
and division are related to
one another and are used to
process information in order
to solve problems. The
degree of precision needed
in calculating depends on
how the result will be used.
Conceptual Understandings
Information can be
expressed as organized and
structured data.
Objects and events can be

Grade Two Language Acquisition Scope and Sequence (Korean)
Oral Language Viewing and Presenting Written Language: Reading Written Language: Writing
Oral language encompasses all
aspects of listening and
speaking—skills that are essential
for ongoing language
development, for learning and for
relating to others. Listening
requires active and conscious
attention in order to make sense
of what is heard. Purposeful talk
enables learners to articulate
thoughts as they construct and
reconstruct meaning to
understand the world around
them. Oral language involves
recognizing and using certain
types of language according to the
audience and purposes
The receptive processes (viewing)
and expressive processes
(presenting) are connected and
allow for reciprocal growth in
understanding; neither process
has meaning except in relation to
the other. These processes involve
interpreting, using and
constructing visuals and
multimedia in a variety of
situations and for a range of
purposes and audiences. Visual
texts may be paper, electronic or
live, observable forms of
communication that are
consciously constructed to convey
meaning and immediately engage
viewers, allowing them instant
access to data. Learning to
interpret this data, and to
understand and use different
media, are invaluable life skills.
Reading is a developmental
process that involves constructing
meaning from text. The process is
interactive and involves the
reader’s purpose for reading, the
reader’s prior knowledge and
experience, and the text itself.
As inquirers, learners need to be
able to identify, synthesize and
apply useful and relevant
information from text.
Writing allows us to organize and
communicate thoughts, ideas and
information in a visible and
tangible way. Writing is primarily
concerned with communicating
meaning and intention. Over time,
writing involves developing a
variety of structures, strategies
and literary techniques (spelling,
grammar, plot, character,
punctuation, voice) and applying
them with increasing skill and
effectiveness.

Grade Two Arts Scope and Sequence Creating Responding
The process of creating provides students with opportunities to communicate distinctive forms of meaning, develop their technical skills, take creative risks, solve problems and visualize consequences. Students are encouraged to draw on their imagination, experiences and knowledge of materials and processes as starting points for creative exploration. They can make connections between their work and that of other artists to inform their thinking and to provide inspiration. Both independently and collaboratively, students participate in creative processes through which they can communicate ideas and express feelings. The creating strand provides opportunities for students to explore their personal interests, beliefs and values and to engage in a personal artistic journey.
The process of responding provides students with opportunities to respond to their own and other artists’ works and processes, and in so doing develop the skills of critical analysis, interpretation, evaluation, reflection and communication. Students will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the concepts, methods and elements of dance, drama, music and visual arts, including using specialized language. Students consider their own and other artists’ works in context and from different perspectives in order to construct meaning and inform their own future works and processes.

Grade 3 Math Scope and Sequence Data Handling Measurement Shape and Space Pattern and Function
Data handling allows us to make a
summary of what we know about
the world and to make inferences
about what we do not know.
● Data can be collected, organized,
represented and summarized in
a variety of ways to highlight
similarities, differences and
trends; the chosen format
should illustrate the information
without bias or distortion.
● Probability can be expressed
qualitatively by using terms such
as “unlikely”, “certain” or
“impossible”. It can be expressed
quantitatively on a numerical
scale.
To measure is to attach a number
to a quantity using a chosen unit.
Since the attributes being
measured are continuous, ways
must be found to deal with
quantities that fall between
numbers. It is important to know
how accurate a measurement
needs to be or can ever be.
The regions, paths and boundaries
of natural space can be described
by shape. An understanding of the
interrelationships of shape allows
us to interpret, understand and
appreciate our two-dimensional
(2D) and three-dimensional (3D)
world.
To identify pattern is to begin to
understand how mathematics
applies to the world in which we
live. The repetitive features of
patterns can be identified and
described as generalized rules
called “functions”. This builds a
foundation for the later study of
algebra.
Conceptual Understandings
Data can be collected, organized,
displayed, and analyzed in different
ways.
Different graph forms highlight
different aspects of data more

Relationships exist between
standard units that measure the
same attributes.
Conceptual Understandings
Geometric shapes and vocabulary
are useful for representing and
describing objects and events in
real world situations.
Shapes can be transformed in
different ways.
Conceptual Understandings

Number Our number system is a language for describing quantities and the relationships between quantities. For example, the value attributed to a digit
depends on its place within a base system.
Numbers are used to interpret information, make decisions and solve problems. For example, the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication
and division are related to one another and are used to process information in order to solve problems. The degree of precision needed in calculating
depends on how the result will be used.

Grade Three Language Acquisition Scope and Sequence (Korean)
Oral Language Viewing and Presenting Written Language: Reading Written Language: Writing
Oral language encompasses all
aspects of listening and
speaking—skills that are essential
for ongoing language
development, for learning and for
relating to others. Listening
requires active and conscious
attention in order to make sense
of what is heard. Purposeful talk
enables learners to articulate
thoughts as they construct and
reconstruct meaning to
understand the world around
them. Oral language involves
recognizing and using certain
types of language according to the
audience and purposes
The receptive processes (viewing)
and expressive processes
(presenting) are connected and
allow for reciprocal growth in
understanding; neither process
has meaning except in relation to
the other. These processes involve
interpreting, using and
constructing visuals and
multimedia in a variety of
situations and for a range of
purposes and audiences. Visual
texts may be paper, electronic or
live, observable forms of
communication that are
consciously constructed to convey
meaning and immediately engage
viewers, allowing them instant
access to data. Learning to
interpret this data, and to
understand and use different
media, are invaluable life skills.
Reading is a developmental
process that involves constructing
meaning from text. The process is
interactive and involves the
reader’s purpose for reading, the
reader’s prior knowledge and
experience, and the text itself.
As inquirers, learners need to be
able to identify, synthesize and
apply useful and relevant
information from text.
Writing allows us to organize and
communicate thoughts, ideas and
information in a visible and
tangible way. Writing is primarily
concerned with communicating
meaning and intention. Over time,
writing involves developing a
variety of structures, strategies
and literary techniques (spelling,
grammar, plot, character,
punctuation, voice) and applying
them with increasing skill and
effectiveness.
Conceptual Understandings:
People communicate using
different languages.
Conceptual Understandings:
People use static and moving
images to communicate ideas and
information.
Conceptual Understandings:
The words we see and hear enable
us to create picture in our mind.
Conceptual Understandings:
Consistent ways of recording
words or ideas enable members of
a language community to
understand each other’s writing.

Grade Three Arts Scope and Sequence Creating Responding
The process of creating provides students with opportunities to communicate distinctive forms of meaning, develop their technical skills, take creative risks, solve problems and visualize consequences. Students are encouraged to draw on their imagination, experiences and knowledge of materials and processes as starting points for creative exploration. They can make connections between their work and that of other artists to inform their thinking and to provide inspiration. Both independently and collaboratively, students participate in creative processes through which they can communicate ideas and express feelings. The creating strand provides opportunities for students to explore their personal interests, beliefs and values and to engage in a personal artistic journey.
The process of responding provides students with opportunities to respond to their own and other artists’ works and processes, and in so doing develop the skills of critical analysis, interpretation, evaluation, reflection and communication. Students will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the concepts, methods and elements of dance, drama, music and visual arts, including using specialized language. Students consider their own and other artists’ works in context and from different perspectives in order to construct meaning and inform their own future works and processes.

Grade Four Math Scope and Sequence Data Handling Measurement Shape and Space Pattern and Function
Data handling allows us to make a
summary of what we know about
the world and to make inferences
about what we do not know.
● Data can be collected,
organized, represented and
summarized in a variety of ways to
highlight similarities, differences
and trends; the chosen format
should illustrate the information
without bias or distortion.
● Probability can be expressed
qualitatively by using terms such as
“unlikely”, “certain” or “impossible”.
It can be expressed quantitatively
on a numerical scale.
To measure is to attach a number to
a quantity using a chosen unit. Since
the attributes being measured are
continuous, ways must be found to
deal with quantities that fall
between numbers. It is important to
know how accurate a measurement
needs to be or can ever be.
The regions, paths and boundaries
of natural space can be described
by shape. An understanding of the
interrelationships of shape allows
us to interpret, understand and
appreciate our two-dimensional
(2D) and three-dimensional (3D)
world.
To identify pattern is to begin to
understand how mathematics
applies to the world in which we
live. The repetitive features of
patterns can be identified and
described as generalized rules
called “functions”. This builds a
foundation for the later study of
algebra.
Conceptual Understandings
Probability can be expressed in
numerical notations.
Data can be collected, organized,
displayed, and analyzed in different
ways.
Conceptual Understandings
Relationships exist between
standard units that measure the
same attributes.
Conversion of units and
measurement allows us to make
sense of the world we live in.
A range of procedures exist to
measure different attributes of
objects and events.
Accuracy of measurements
depends on the situation and the
precision of the tool.
Conceptual Understandings
Geometric tools and methods can
be used to solve problems relating
to shape and space.
Consolidating what we know of
geometric concepts allows us to
make sense of and interact with our
world.
Conceptual Understandings
Patterns can often be generalized
using algebraic expressions,
equations, or functions.
Functions are relationships or rules
that uniquely associate members of
one set with members of another
set.

this principle to recognize and
generate equivalent fractions.
Number Our number system is a language for describing quantities and the relationships between quantities. For example, the value attributed to a digit
depends on its place within a base system.
Numbers are used to interpret information, make decisions and solve problems. For example, the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication
and division are related to one another and are used to process information in order to solve problems. The degree of precision needed in calculating
depends on how the result will be used.

Grade Four Language Acquisition Scope and Sequence (Korean)
Oral Language Viewing and Presenting Written Language: Reading Written Language: Writing
Oral language encompasses all
aspects of listening and
speaking—skills that are essential
for ongoing language
development, for learning and for
relating to others. Listening
requires active and conscious
attention in order to make sense
of what is heard. Purposeful talk
enables learners to articulate
thoughts as they construct and
reconstruct meaning to
understand the world around
them. Oral language involves
recognizing and using certain
types of language according to the
audience and purposes
The receptive processes (viewing)
and expressive processes
(presenting) are connected and
allow for reciprocal growth in
understanding; neither process
has meaning except in relation to
the other. These processes involve
interpreting, using and
constructing visuals and
multimedia in a variety of
situations and for a range of
purposes and audiences. Visual
texts may be paper, electronic or
live, observable forms of
communication that are
consciously constructed to convey
meaning and immediately engage
viewers, allowing them instant
access to data. Learning to
interpret this data, and to
understand and use different
media, are invaluable life skills.
Reading is a developmental
process that involves constructing
meaning from text. The process is
interactive and involves the
reader’s purpose for reading, the
reader’s prior knowledge and
experience, and the text itself.
As inquirers, learners need to be
able to identify, synthesize and
apply useful and relevant
information from text.
Writing allows us to organize and
communicate thoughts, ideas and
information in a visible and
tangible way. Writing is primarily
concerned with communicating
meaning and intention. Over time,
writing involves developing a
variety of structures, strategies
and literary techniques (spelling,
grammar, plot, character,
punctuation, voice) and applying
them with increasing skill and
effectiveness.
Conceptual Understandings:
Spoken words connect us with

Grade Four Arts Scope and Sequence Creating Responding
The process of creating provides students with opportunities to communicate distinctive forms of meaning, develop their technical skills, take creative risks, solve problems and visualize consequences. Students are encouraged to draw on their imagination, experiences and knowledge of materials and processes as starting points for creative exploration. They can make connections between their work and that of other artists to inform their thinking and to provide inspiration. Both independently and collaboratively, students participate in creative processes through which they can communicate ideas and express feelings. The creating strand provides opportunities for students to explore their personal interests, beliefs and values and to engage in a personal artistic journey.
The process of responding provides students with opportunities to respond to their own and other artists’ works and processes, and in so doing develop the skills of critical analysis, interpretation, evaluation, reflection and communication. Students will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the concepts, methods and elements of dance, drama, music and visual arts, including using specialized language. Students consider their own and other artists’ works in context and from different perspectives in order to construct meaning and inform their own future works and processes.

Grade Five Literacy Scope and Sequence Oral Language Viewing and Presenting Written Language: Writing
Oral language encompasses all aspects of
listening and speaking—skills that are essential
for ongoing language development, for learning
and for relating to others. Listening requires
active and conscious attention in order to make
sense of what is heard. Purposeful talk enables
learners to articulate thoughts as they construct
and reconstruct meaning to understand the
world around them. Oral language involves
recognizing and using certain types of language
according to the audience and purposes
The receptive processes (viewing) and expressive
processes (presenting) are connected and allow
for reciprocal growth in understanding; neither
process has meaning except in relation to the
other. These processes involve interpreting,
using and constructing visuals and multimedia in
a variety of situations and for a range of
purposes and audiences. Visual texts may be
paper, electronic or live, observable forms of
communication that are consciously constructed
to convey meaning and immediately engage
viewers, allowing them instant access to data.
Learning to interpret this data, and to
understand and use different media, are
invaluable life skills.
Writing allows us to organize and communicate
thoughts, ideas and information in a visible and
tangible way. Writing is primarily concerned with
communicating meaning and intention. Over
time, writing involves developing a variety of
structures, strategies and literary techniques
(spelling, grammar, plot, character, punctuation,
voice) and applying them with increasing skill and
effectiveness.
Conceptual Understandings
The grammatical structures of a language enable
members of a language community to
communicate with each other.
Spoken language can be used to persuade and
influence people.
Metaphorical language creates strong visual
images in our imagination.
People draw on what they already know in order
to infer new meaning from what they hear.
Conceptual Understandings
Synthesizing information from visual texts is
dependent upon personal interpretation and
leads to new understanding.
Visual texts have the power to influence thinking
and behavior.
Conceptual Understandings
When writing, the words we choose and how we
choose to use them enable us to share our
imaginings and ideas.
Effective stories have a purpose and structure
that help to make the author’s intention clear.
Knowing what we aim to achieve helps us to plan
and develop different forms of writing.
Synthesizing ideas enables us to build on what
we know, reflect on different perspectives, and
express new ideas.

Grade Five Math Scope and Sequence Data Handling Measurement Shape and Space Pattern and Function
Data handling allows us to make a
summary of what we know about
the world and to make inferences
about what we do not know.
● Data can be collected, organized,
represented and summarized in
a variety of ways to highlight
similarities, differences and
trends; the chosen format
should illustrate the information
without bias or distortion.
● Probability can be expressed
qualitatively by using terms such
as “unlikely”, “certain” or
“impossible”. It can be expressed
quantitatively on a numerical
scale.
To measure is to attach a number
to a quantity using a chosen unit.
Since the attributes being measured
are continuous, ways must be
found to deal with quantities that
fall between numbers. It is
important to know how accurate a
measurement needs to be or can
ever be.
The regions, paths and boundaries
of natural space can be described
by shape. An understanding of the
interrelationships of shape allows
us to interpret, understand and
appreciate our two-dimensional
(2D) and three-dimensional (3D)
world.
To identify pattern is to begin to
understand how mathematics
applies to the world in which we
live. The repetitive features of
patterns can be identified and
described as generalized rules
called “functions”. This builds a
foundation for the later study of
algebra.
Conceptual Understandings
Data can be presented effectively
for valid interpretation and
communication.

Grade Five Language Acquisition Scope and Sequence (Korean)
Oral Language Viewing and Presenting Written Language: Reading Written Language: Writing
Oral language encompasses all
aspects of listening and
speaking—skills that are essential
for ongoing language
development, for learning and for
relating to others. Listening
requires active and conscious
attention in order to make sense
of what is heard. Purposeful talk
enables learners to articulate
thoughts as they construct and
reconstruct meaning to
understand the world around
them. Oral language involves
recognizing and using certain
types of language according to the
audience and purposes
The receptive processes (viewing)
and expressive processes
(presenting) are connected and
allow for reciprocal growth in
understanding; neither process
has meaning except in relation to
the other. These processes involve
interpreting, using and
constructing visuals and
multimedia in a variety of
situations and for a range of
purposes and audiences. Visual
texts may be paper, electronic or
live, observable forms of
communication that are
consciously constructed to convey
meaning and immediately engage
viewers, allowing them instant
access to data. Learning to
interpret this data, and to
understand and use different
media, are invaluable life skills.
Reading is a developmental
process that involves constructing
meaning from text. The process is
interactive and involves the
reader’s purpose for reading, the
reader’s prior knowledge and
experience, and the text itself.
As inquirers, learners need to be
able to identify, synthesize and
apply useful and relevant
information from text.
Writing allows us to organize and
communicate thoughts, ideas and
information in a visible and
tangible way. Writing is primarily
concerned with communicating
meaning and intention. Over time,
writing involves developing a
variety of structures, strategies
and literary techniques (spelling,
grammar, plot, character,
punctuation, voice) and applying
them with increasing skill and
effectiveness.
Conceptual Understandings:
The grammatical structures of a
language enable members of a
language community to
communicate with each other.
Conceptual Understandings:
Visual texts can expand our
database of sources of
information.
Conceptual Understandings:
Reading and thinking work
together to enable us to make
meaning.
Conceptual Understandings:
Writing and thinking work together
to enable us to express ideas and
convey meaning.

Grade Five Arts Scope and Sequence Creating Responding
The process of creating provides students with opportunities to communicate distinctive forms of meaning, develop their technical skills, take creative risks, solve problems and visualize consequences. Students are encouraged to draw on their imagination, experiences and knowledge of materials and processes as starting points for creative exploration. They can make connections between their work and that of other artists to inform their thinking and to provide inspiration. Both independently and collaboratively, students participate in creative processes through which they can communicate ideas and express feelings. The creating strand provides opportunities for students to explore their personal interests, beliefs and values and to engage in a personal artistic journey.
The process of responding provides students with opportunities to respond to their own and other artists’ works and processes, and in so doing develop the skills of critical analysis, interpretation, evaluation, reflection and communication. Students will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the concepts, methods and elements of dance, drama, music and visual arts, including using specialized language. Students consider their own and other artists’ works in context and from different perspectives in order to construct meaning and inform their own future works and processes.
