Sample Curriculum Posts

Students: The first part of the post will address your students. In this paragraph, motivate the students to explore the great Internet game you have found that is appropriate for supporting what they are learning in class about . . . . . Let your own personality shine, but also include the students. Why should they explore the links you have provided? They need a reason.


Parents: The second part of the post will address your students' parents. In this paragraph, cite the curriculum document expectation (quote the document and cite the expectation # or page). Then, share with your students' parents how the activity ties to student learning.

To see examples of well written curriculum posts, check out these edublogs created by previous students in EDUC8Y24/34:
