The first item on the checklist is, “The curriculum demonstrates evidence of backward design and proficiency-oriented instruction.” In this week’s issue CASLS’ Language Technology Specialist Stephanie Knight goes into detail about backwards design, especially as it relates to cross-curricular connections. We hope you are inspired to try these ideas in the coming school year.
