Unit Checklists

Plus courses will include a unit checklist that provides all graded assessment names, points, and aligned objectives. Each checklist will be titled “Unit X Checklist.” Within the checklist, the category will be titled “Unit X Assignments.” Within each category, the items will be called “X.1 X: Title.” The number of points and the objectives the assignment aligns with will be included in each item description.

Rubrics

Teacher-graded assessments need to include scoring rubrics. Rubrics should be attached to the assignment for grading purposes and available for students to review before assignment submission.

Gradebook Progress Checks

Plus courses include a progress check after each unit. The Progress Check should include all graded assessments up to the Progress Check. Ex. Progress Check Unit 2 includes all graded assessments from Getting Started, Unit 1, and Unit 2.

Course Alignment Map

Create an Alignment Document that includes applicable state standards, learning objectives, lesson title, and assessments. A reviewer should be able to see which learning objectives align with which assessments. Applicable standards should be included at the unit level (no need to include applicable standards at the lesson level).
