Overview

If new standards and accountabilities are making your job more complicated than ever, here's a book that cuts through the confusion.

Based on their 10 years of research in more than 300 schools, the authors lay out a blueprint for curriculum, instruction, and assessment that includes

• Four clear and manageable standards that enable students to meet all the various standards dictated by districts, states, and regions
• Research-based learning strategies that help students meet the standards in any content area and grade level
• Assessments that evaluate how well students are doing and reveal what students need to meet the standards

Lesson plans, teaching practices, and assessment tools from real classrooms show how to ensure that standards stay focused on meaningful education.
