Core Subjects and 21st Century Themes

Mastery of core subjects and 21st century themes is essential for students in the 21st century. Core Subjects include; English, reading or

language arts, world languages, arts, mathematics, economics, science, geography, history, government and civics.

We believe schools must move beyond a focus on basiccompetency in core subjects to promoting understanding ofacademic content at much higher levels by weaving 21stcentury interdisciplinary themes into core subjects:

Life and Career skillsDeveloping a comprehensive framework for 21st century learning requires more than identifying specific skills, content knowledge, experiences and literacy's. An innovative support system must be

created to help students master the multi-dimensional abilities required of them in the 21stcentury.

The Partnership has identified five critical support systems that ensure student mastery of 21st century skills:
