Many schools under pressure to meet new standards of learning
mistakenly believe that they must adopt a narrow curriculum
that imposes strict boundaries on what students are taught. In
this book, Susan M. Drake and Rebecca C. Burns address this
issue by offering strategies for synchronizing standards across
the disciplines. At the heart of the book is the KNOW/DO/BE
framework, which teachers can use to ensure a curriculum that
is both rigorous and relevant to K–12 students at all stages of
proficiency. Among other things, this comprehensive framework
allows teachers to:
• Map curriculum Susan M. Drake & Rebecca C. Bur
• Scan and cluster standards
• Develop assessments and guiding questions
• Align integrated instructional strategies and assessments
Though the authors draw much of their data from research on Association for Supervision
integration, their focus is on analyzing the real-life experiences and Curriculum Development
of teachers who have successfully integrated their curricula in Alexandria, Virginia USA
the service of accountability. The many benefits of this approach VISIT US ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB
that the authors explore include lower absenteeism, fewer http://www.ascd.org
behavioral problems, and higher rates of homework completion ns
among students. By combining case studies with a wealth of
supporting research, Meeting Standards Through Integrated
Curriculum offers teachers a user-friendly system for meeting
standards while advancing broad-based learning. Susan M. Drake
