Indicator 3c

as charts, diagrams, or flowcharts, to help

illustrate how concepts and standards are connected across grade levels.

● Discuss whether the materials highlight connections between the subject's concepts and standards and

those of other subjects, fostering interdisciplinary learning.

● Discuss whether there are insights or annotations aimed explicitly at teachers that explain the rationale

behind the concepts and standards and how they fit into the broader curriculum.

● Discuss whether there are suggestions or links to professional development resources that can further

enhance teachers' understanding of subject matter progression.

Gateway 3: Teacher and Student Supports

Criterion 3.1 Materials include opportunities for teachers to effectively plan and utilize

materials with integrity and to further develop their own understanding of the

content.

Indicator 3c Materials include a year-long scope and sequence with standards correlation

information.

Scoring

1 point

● Materials include a year-long scope and sequence

with standard correlation information.

0 points

● Materials do not include a year-long scope and

sequence with standard correlation information.

About this indicator:

What is the purpose of this Indicator?

This indicator examines whether materials contain a standards correlation information document, which maps or

aligns the content and activities within the materials to specific Mathematics Common Core State Standards.

---

amines whether materials contain a standards correlation information document, which maps or

aligns the content and activities within the materials to specific Mathematics Common Core State Standards. This

document serves as a resource for teachers to quickly identify how and where the material addresses particular

standards, enabling better planning and instruction. It helps ensure that teaching is aligned with required

educational benchmarks and offers transparency on how the materials support meeting those standards.

Research or Standards connection:

● Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM)

Indicator 3c Guiding Question:

Do the materials include a year-long scope and sequence with standards correlation information?

Evidence Collection

In the instructional materials being reviewed:

● Consider how teacher materials provide documentation that addresses how individual units, lessons, or

activities throughout the series are aligned to mathematical concepts and practices (Common Core

Mathematics Standards), as applicable.

● Ensure that the correlation document covers all relevant mathematics standards for the entire grade level

or series, including content and practice standards.

● Check if there is a clear and direct alignment between the material's content and the specific mathematics

standards.
