HOW
FollettShelf Classroom
Connections
Writers sometimes use a “quote”.
What does the word “quote” mean? How is a
“quote” used?
How is a “quote” different from a “detail”?
In Lips visited the area for the first time.
On her first visit, there were many frogs. On her return visit, the
forest was quiet. What might I infer from these two statements?
What specific detail supports the idea that there were many frogs
in 1992? What one word is most important to support the idea?

Vision Skills+ + Incentives + Resources + Action Plan = Sustainable
Change
Skills + Incentives + Resources + Action Plan = Confusion
Vision + Incentives + Resources + Action Plan = Anxiety
Vision Skills+ + Resources + Action Plan = Resistance
Vision Skills+ + Incentives + Action Plan = Frustration
Vision Skills+ + Incentives + Resources = Treadmill
Curriculum Mapping Implementation
Key Questions:
Resources -- "Do we have tools, time, and training to map effectively?"
Action Plan -- "Over the next three years, do we have attainable
timelines and goals? Who will be the responsible parties for
implementations, monitoring, and feedback?"
Vision -- "Why are we doing this?"
Skills -- "How do we build effective maps?"
Incentives -- "How will mapping improve
teaching and learning?"
Conditions for Successful Implementation
Plan

Plan
Plan
Plan
Vision: The “Why are we doing this?” to combat confusion.
Skills: The skill sets needed to combat anxiety.
Incentives: Reasons, perks, advantages to combat resistance
Resources: Tools and time needed to combat frustration.
Plan: Provides the direction to
eliminate the treadmill effect.

Toffler (1979), The definition of "illiterate"
The illiterate of the 21st
century will not be those
who cannot read and write,
but those who cannot learn,
unlearn, and relearn.
