St. Lucie County Social Studies Scope & Sequence Documents, Grades 6-12
2100310/20 11th Grade US History 2013-2014
The St. Lucie County Scope & Sequence, Suggested Pacing Guide, and Common Core State Standards Appendix should be used in concert as a teaching and
learning tool in our continuing effort to improve the rigor of instruction and better prepare our students for future learning (including college and career
readiness) and to address skills requirements of the Common Core State Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies in Grades 6-12.
Instruction should be based on content / skills from the St. Lucie County Public Schools Scope and Sequence, Suggested Pacing Guides, and the Common Core State Standards Appendix. These documents should serve to guide instruction, rather than a textbook or any other specific resource.
Use the Learning Goal and Scale as your starting point: have it posted, and review it regularly with your students to provide them with a framework for instruction and a purpose for learning all the related content. The same holds true for the target(s) you are focusing on each day. They should be visible and discussed before and after instruction.
Strategies must include Document-Based instruction (analytical reading and writing involving individual and collections of primary and secondary sources), methodology affecting the multiple intelligences, and utilizing both individual and cooperative learning (e.g. History Alive/DBQ Project).
Students should be engaged in higher order writing on a regular basis, short and extended responses, more in-depth essays such as Document Based Questions (DBQ’s), and authentic writing. Students must be able to produce historical writing, that is, they must be able to take a position on a subject (thesis) and defend it with examples (facts) and sound reasoning (logic).
Students should conduct extended research projects related to the History Fair (Grades 6, 8, 10, and 11) or Project Citizen (Grade 7).
Social Studies Literacy Strategies should be utilized regularly (Cornell Notes, Dialectical Notes, or similar note-taking method, SOAPStone or APPARTS analysis tools, and PERSIA or G-SPRITE categorization tools).
Assessment should include both formative assessments “for learning,” and summative assessments. Questions should follow Webb’s Depth of Knowledge / Cognitive Complexity and include Level 1 items that involve low order, foundational knowledge/skills; Level 2 items that require students to infer or draw conclusions; and Level 3 items that require more abstract thought or an extension of the information at hand.
Students should keep a Notebook as they help students organize information (previews, teacher directed activities, and process assignments). Notebooks provide cohesion and structure to a unit of study, and they place responsibility for learning on students (e.g. an AVID or Interactive Student Notebook).
Teachers should assign, and students should complete targeted homework - students should be expected to complete homework regularly but homework shouldn’t be assigned simply for the sake of giving homework. Homework can include preview or process activities, vocabulary/concept building, work related to projects, etc. (Read Marzano’s article “The Case For and Against Homework” available on SHARE).
o Previews involve activating prior knowledge, preparing students for the next topic of instruction. o Process activities relate to content/skills recently learned where students are involved in metacognition.
The Common Core State Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies are integrated with the Scope and Sequence and are also available on the at www.corestandards.org.
