Connecticut State Dept. of Education, Hartford.
Providing guidance to Connecticut schools and districts that are developing curriculum, this book presents curriculum frameworks in 10 disciplines for thinking about the knowledge, skills, and understandings that students should have. The 10 disciplines addressed in the book are: (1) the Arts; (2) Health and Safety Education; (3) Language Arts; (4) Learning Resources and Information Technology; (5) Mathematics; (6) Physical Education; (7) Science; (8) Social Studies; (9) Technology Education; and (10) World Languages. The curriculum frameworks in the book include the following components: program goals, which describe the broad results students should achieve by the end of grade 12; K-12 content standards, which specify what students should know and be able to do by the end of grade 12; and performance standards, which specify by grade cluster how adept or competent student performance must be to signal attainment of the K-12 content standards.
