Utah Science Education Tools (USETs) are designed to be one-page educator supports for specific components of effective science teaching. This one addresses three-dimensional assessments in science education.
Utah Science Education Tools (USETs) are designed to be one-page educator supports for specific components of effective science teaching. This one addresses supporting multilingual students in science.
Within these SEEd Core Guides are sections that address what competency looks like for students and provide formative assessments with proficiency rubrics for teachers. This fits with the PCBL Demonstrated Competency and Assessment tenet.
The Utah Core Standards are aligned to
scientifically based content standards.
They drive high quality instruction
through statewide comprehensive
expectations for all students. The
standards outline essential knowledge,
concepts, and skills to be mastered at
each grade level or within a critical
content area. The standards provide a
foundation for ensuring learning within
the classroom.
The Dyslexia Handbook offers guidance, resources, and appropriate supports and interventions for readers with dyslexia. It is also a communication tool for educators and parents to work together. This handbook offers information about dyslexia and its characteristics, as well as providing information on assessments, effective teaching approaches, self-advocacy, and other related resources.
Identifying the ideal characteristics of a Utah graduate after going through the P-12 system.
This document contains the core standards for Physical Education k-12 for the state of Utah.
The following list has been reviewed and vetted to determine if the curricular program meets or does not meet the requirements set forth in SB 127 (2022). The review committee was only able to dive into programs that were submitted for review. The committee plans to run another review in the spring to add more programs to this list. These programs were reviewed using the Science of Reading Evidence-Informed Core Criteria Checklist. In addition, intervention programs were also reviewed using Utah’s Critical Features of Tiered Literacy Interventions document. Please note, this is not an exhaustive list and curricular programs will continue to be added as they are reviewed.
Utah's Early Learning Core Standards give guidance and
resources regarding developmentally appropriate standards and goals for young children and
students
This document includes the frequently asked questions about the new ELA standards.
These slides are from the ELA standards tour of Utah and provide an overview of the new standards.
The purpose of these essential
standards is to provide educators
with a prioritized list of standards
to focus on during COVID-19.
This document describes the planning and instructional delivery process that educators should go through to ensure high-quality planning, delivery, and modification of instruction.
Provides districts, charters, and schools with an evidence-based framework and self-assessment tool to identify strengths and areas for growth to improve student literacy outcomes; also provides LEAs, building administrators, teachers, and other stakeholders with evidence-based practices that will yield positive literacy outcomes for students.
Utah's Kings Peak: Standard 7.NS.1 Apply and extend previous understandings of addition and subtraction to add and subtract rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram.
This formative assessment exemplar was created by a team of Utah educators to be used as a resource in the classroom. It was reviewed for appropriateness by a Bias and Sensitivity/Special Education team and by state mathematics leaders. While no assessment is perfect, it is intended to be used as a formative tool that enables teachers to obtain evidence of student learning, identify assets and gaps in that learning, and adjust instruction for the two dimensions that are important for mathematical learning experiences (i.e., Standards for Mathematical Practice, Major Work of the Grade).
Technology powered learning engages students and enhances learning. Utah's Master Plan outlines how we will prepare our future workforce for the demands of a world in which everyone will be required to use and create knowledge and leverage technology as a powerful tool to aid in this
preparation.
A Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) is a framework focused on three instructional tiers (Universal, Targeted, and Intensive) engineered to meet student needs using a systematic approach. The Utah Multi-Tiered System of Support (UMTSS) is designed to address student learning in mathematics encompassing these critical components: High-quality Instruction, Team-based Problem Solving, and Data-based Decision Making.
A schoolÕs fundamental purpose is student learning. As such, some students may need extended time and support to learn critical skills and knowledge at high levels. Other students may need enrichment. A Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) is a framework focused on three instructional tiers (Universal, Targeted, and Intensive) engineered to meet student needs using a systematic approach.
Utah’s K–12 Literacy Framework intends to: Provide districts, charters, and schools with an evidence-based framework and self-assessment tool to identify strengths and areas for growth to improve student literacy outcomes and provide LEAs, building administrators, teachers, and other stakeholders with evidence-based practices that will yield positive literacy outcomes for students.
The P-20 Competencies are aligned with Utah's Portrait of a Graduate and defnes the competencies into grade bands that vertically align as learners build knowledge, skills, and dispositions from Pre-K through post-secondary.
