Here it is comrades! This site will enable us to collaborate online. We will be able to share cool lessons that we're proud of or ideas that we think can help others. It is categorized by class, and then by units and then by lessons. We can all access our curriculum and make suggestions / changes as we see fit. I guess you can call this a think tank for teaching and learning. Hey, we can even share student work as models of our lessons. Imagine the potential.

First and foremost. The Common Core Standards is a national initiative which addresses the most important elements of learning for the 21st century. Wisconsin and our district have also adopted these standards. This means that we are to direct our instruction according to these standards. Refer to the specific curriculum for detailed elements to be taught while teaching toward mastery of the standards.

=How This Works....= If you are unfamiliar with how a wiki works, check out the YouTube video below. Keep in mind that if you try to watch the video at school you have to allow the content by providing your username and password for KUSD to remove the content filter because it's a YouTube video. You can simply open another tab, navigate to YouTube, provide your username and password to override the content filter, then refresh this page. It should work now.
