Curriculum Calendar Map Standards by Six Weeks Grading Periods The Curriculum Calendar Map is a guide for teachers regarding which standards should be taught during each six weeks grading period. It is a planning tool to assist with aligning the curriculum to assessment and instruction, and details the skills and concepts being taught over the course of the instructional year. The map lists the Texas Essential Knowledge of Skills Student Expectations (TEKS SEs). The TEKS SEs are the required curriculum from the Texas Legislature and specifies what students must learn in order to be proficient at each grade level. Possible Lesson Objectives encompass the content (what students should know), processes, and skills (what students should be able to do) that lead to proficiency of the TEKS SEs. The possible lesson objectives have been aligned to the TEKS SEs with the Readiness Standards printed in red, the Supporting Standards printed in blue, and standards not assessed on STAAR in black. If an SE is typed in bold font, it indicates a Dallas ISD performance of less than 50% on the Spring 2013 STAAR/EOC. If an SE has a strike-through, that part of the SE is not being taught during that six weeks grading period. The District-wide use of the Curriculum Calendar Maps provides all Dallas ISD students an equal opportunity to learn the same viable content. The implementation of the curriculum will ensure our students are poised for future academic success and are college or career ready.
