13.A. Science Curriculum Resource Resolution
Presenter:
Supt. Fleenor
Description:
The science curriculum was up for review this past year. See attached review cycle for more information on process.

Mattawan Consolidated School has developed a curriculum review cycle that will provide a structured plan for resource renewal in course subject matter on a six-year cycle. Having the review cycle will ensure our staff and students have equitable access to high-quality and impactful resources to advance learning.

The proposed science resources follow the most current research-based practices that are grounded in the science of teaching and learning. This will help ensure our students are equipped with the highest level of scientific literacy and inquiry skills needed to be proficient in understanding and applying scientific concepts. These new resources are aligned with Michigan's Science Standards (NGSS) and utilize best practices for science instruction.

Resources were reviewed by all K-12 Science Vertical Teams and recommended to the Assistant Superintendent’s Office.

DEPARTMENT COMMITTEE
June Parker/Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment, Carrie Wendell/LES Dean of Teaching & Learning, Cathy Brewster/MS Dean of Teaching & Learning, Kat ie MacDonell/HS Dean of Teaching & Learning, K-5 Science Committees comprised of teacher representatives, the MS and HS Science teachers
