Course Alignment Map

A useful resource in this section to highlight is the Course Alignment Map. There are two main tabs in this document. Course Objectives identifies the overarching objectives for the course.

A detailed Lesson Objectives tab lists the standards, course and module objectives, instructional materials, activities, assessments, and tools.

It also makes it easy to distinguish instructional resources from activity‑based resources, which is especially useful when identifying materials that can support students who may be struggling.

The Pacing Guide shows the full scope and sequence of each course. Use the tabs at the bottom of the document to switch between semesters. Understanding the Pacing Guide in our Help Center provides additional guidance.

NOTE: Depending on the course and grade level, this section may contain additional resources.

The guide includes objectives, materials, and multiple ways to support students within each lesson.
