Curriculum Guides
The Division of Instructional Support continually develops and revises the curriculum guides of all curriculum areas. These guides are usually developed after the adoption of new Alabama Courses of Study, textbooks and instructional software. Teacher advisory committees and the Division of Instructional Support staff meet and correlate State Courses of Study, state assessments (i.e. ARMT, ASHGE, and Stanford 10 objectives), national standards , and state and local curriculum resources including textbooks.
Teachers should utilize curriculum guides as a reference to assist in developing daily lesson plans to ensure that minimum standards set forth in the Courses of Study are met. More information about curriculum guides may be obtained from the supervisor.
