Curriculum &
​ Instruction
Curriculum and Instruction supports student learning when it is intentionally planned and delivered to be important, focused, engaging, demanding, and scaffolded.  This category seeks to ensure there is commitment to and practice of defining learning targets for students, then intentionally planning for and using a variety of instructional strategies so EVERY student is challenged. There are three elements in Curriculum & Instruction: Curriculum, Instructional Planning, and Instructional Practice (adapted from Carol Ann Tomlinson).
