PoI - How can we be balanced?



Today we are looking at the current PoI to see the sequence in the curriculum.
We would reveal if our curriculum covers the all area, and follows the appropriate
gradation according to the age/grade.

*The Activity

  1. Divide all teachers into grades.
  2. Each group analyses our current PoI sheets. 
  3. Find the conceptual lens (what exactly students learn) from the central idea. 
  4. List up the related concepts (see the examples)
  5. Check if any units are not reflected the key concepts
  6. Check if any units are overlapping 
  7. Analyse the sequence of the conceptual lens. Are they following the student growth? 
  8. Add/delete if some related concepts should be in the unit but not covered
  9. Add if new collaboration opportunity is found

Findings:
