DISTRICT MISSION STATEMENT


Our mission in the Egg Harbor Township School District is to partner with the student,
family, school, and community to provide a safe learning environment that addresses
rigorous and relevant 21st Century standards and best practices which will develop
academic scholarship, integrity, leadership, citizenship, and the unique learning style of
students, while encouraging them to develop a strong work ethic and to act responsibly in
their school community and every day society.

MATHEMATICS - PHILOSOPHY
We believe that ALL students regardless of race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, religious
background, and/or any other classification are deserving of a holistic mathematics
education. This holistic approach would include an education that will allow them to fully
discover themselves, their strengths and weaknesses, and benefit from necessary real
world/real life mathematical instruction. Mathematics curricula are designed to reinforce 21 st
Century Learning, to maximize rigor, relevance, and relationships, and to engage students
individually through differentiated instruction.

MATHEMATICS - STATEMENT OF PURPOSE


Education exists for the purpose of enabling each individual to realize and maintain her/his
full potential. Mathematics education specifically involves the development of each
individual's understanding and appreciation and serves as an essential element to the
developmental process and toward the future success of students in the world at large.
The Mathematics programs provide the opportunity for each individual to develop a
comprehensive foundation of basic knowledge, skills, and techniques and serve not only as
pathways to future success but also provide students with opportunities to excel and
challenge themselves in preparation for lifelong learning.
This curriculum guide has been designed to expose all students to the mathematics
educational experience outlined within. Each student will be offered thorough and
analogous mathematics instruction and will be fully prepared for the continuing education
offered at the secondary level. Additionally, through active participation, students will
develop positive individual and group behavioral patterns while exploring the vast cultural
and ethnic diversity reflective of our community.
Our school district provides an extensive mathematics program, which will enable students
to succeed and compete in the global marketplace using the Common Core State
Standards (CCSS).

INTRODUCTION
The most precious resource teachers have is time. Regardless of how much time a course
is scheduled for, it is never enough to accomplish all that one would like. Therefore, it is
imperative that teachers utilize the time they have wisely in order to maximize the potential
for all students to achieve the desired learning.
4

High quality educational programs are characterized by clearly stated goals for student
learning, teachers who are well-informed and skilled in enabling students to reach those
goals, program designs that allow for continuous growth over the span of years of
instruction, and ways of measuring whether students are achieving program goals.

THE EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICT CURRICULUM TEMPLATE


The Egg Harbor Township School District has embraced the backward-design model as the
foundation for all curriculum development for the educational program. When reviewing
curriculum documents and the Egg Harbor Township curriculum template, aspects of the
backward-design model will be found in the stated enduring understandings/essential
questions, unit assessments, and instructional activities. Familiarization with backward-
design is critical to working effectively with Egg Harbor Township‟s curriculum guides.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES: WHAT IS BACKWARD DESIGN?


WHAT IS UNDERSTANDING BY DESIGN?
“Backward design” is an increasingly common approach to planning curriculum and
instruction. As its name implies, “backward design” is based on defining clear goals,
providing acceptable evidence of having achieved those goals, and then working „backward‟
to identify what actions need to be taken that will ensure that the gap between the current
status and the desired status is closed.
Building on the concept of backward design, Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe (2005) have
developed a structured approach to planning programs, curriculum, and instructional units.
Their model asks educators to state goals; identify deep understandings, pose essential
questions, and specify clear evidence that goals, understandings, and core learning have
been achieved.
Programs based on backward design use desired results to drive decisions. With this
design, there are questions to consider, such as: What should students understand, know,
and be able to do? What does it look like to meet those goals? What kind of program will
result in the outcomes stated? How will we know students have achieved that result? What
other kinds of evidence will tell us that we have a quality program? These questions apply
regardless of whether they are goals in program planning or classroom instruction.
The backward design process involves three interrelated stages for developing an entire
curriculum or a single unit of instruction. The relationship from planning to curriculum
design, development, and implementation hinges upon the integration of the following three
stages.

Stage I: Identifying Desired Results: Enduring understandings, essential questions,


knowledge and skills need to be woven into curriculum publications, documents, standards,
and scope and sequence materials. Enduring understandings identify the “big ideas” that
students will grapple with during the course of the unit. Essential questions provide a
unifying focus for the unit and students should be able to answer
5

more deeply and fully these questions as they proceed through the unit. Knowledge and
skills are the “stuff” upon which the understandings are built.

Stage II: Determining Acceptable Evidence: Varied types of evidence are specified to
ensure that students demonstrate attainment of desired results. While discrete knowledge
assessments (e.g.: multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, short answer, etc…) will be utilized
during an instructional unit, the overall unit assessment is performance-based and asks
students to demonstrate that they have mastered the desired understandings. These
culminating (summative) assessments are authentic tasks that students would likely
encounter in the real world after they leave school. They allow students to demonstrate all
that they have learned and can do. To demonstrate their understandings students can
explain, interpret, apply, provide critical and insightful points of view, show empathy and/or
evidence self-knowledge. Models of student performance and clearly defined criteria (i.e.:
rubrics) are provided to all students in advance of starting work on the unit task.

Stage III: Designing Learning Activities: Instructional tasks, activities, and experiences are
aligned with stages one and two so that the desired results are obtained based on the
identified evidence or assessment tasks. Instructional activities and strategies are
considered only once stages one and two have been clearly explicated. Therefore,
congruence among all three stages can be ensured and teachers can make wise
instructional choices.

At the curricular level, these three stages are best realized as a fusion of research, best
practices, shared and sustained inquiry, consensus building, and initiative that involves all
stakeholders. In this design, administrators are instructional leaders who enable the
alignment between the curriculum and other key initiatives in their district or schools. These
leaders demonstrate a clear purpose and direction for the curriculum within their school or
district by providing support for implementation, opportunities for revision through sustained
and consistent professional development, initiating action research activities, and collecting
and evaluating materials to ensure alignment with the desired results. Intrinsic to the
success of curriculum is to show how it aligns with the overarching goals of the district, how
the document relates to district, state, or national standards, what a high quality educational
program looks like, and what excellent teaching and learning looks like. Within education,
success of the educational program is realized through this blend of commitment and
organizational direction.

INTENT OF THE GUIDE


This guide is intended to provide teachers with course objectives and possible activities, as
well as assist the teacher in planning and delivering instruction in accordance with the
Common Core State Standards (CCSS). The guide is not intended to restrict or limit the
teacher‟s resources or individual instruction techniques. It is expected that the teacher will
reflectively adjust and modify instruction and units during the course of normal lessons
depending on the varying needs of the class, provided such modified instruction attends to
the objectives and essential questions outlined below.
