What is a Planning Guide?

Planning Guides are a tool for teachers to use in designing instruction and assessment that focuses on developing and deepening students' understanding of mathematical concepts. This tool is based on the process outlined in Understanding by Design, by Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe.

The following steps will help you through the Planning Guide:

• Step 1: Identify Outcomes to Address
• Step 2: Determine Evidence of Student Learning
• Step 3: Plan for Instruction
• Step 4: Assess Student Learning
• Step 5: Follow-up on Assessment
