# A curriculum that inspires all

 

Create a clear, implementation-ready strategy that aligns the curriculum to district and state goals- all while meeting diverse needs of students.

###### Our Process

---

![eyebrow-icon-blue](https://www.edelements.com/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/icons/eyebrow-icon-blue.svg)

###### Step 1

## Design a vision for instruction, student experience, and outcomes.

Then evaluate current curriculum and supplemental resources, usage, and engagement against the vision to identify gaps and opportunities through our comprehensive curriculum audit.

 

![AdobeStock_921882167](https://www.edelements.com/hs-fs/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/images/Standard%20Photos/AdobeStock_921882167.jpeg?width=2000&name=AdobeStock_921882167.jpeg)

![AdobeStock_917546803](https://www.edelements.com/hs-fs/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/images/Standard%20Photos/AdobeStock_917546803.jpeg?width=2000&name=AdobeStock_917546803.jpeg)

![eyebrow-icon-blue](https://www.edelements.com/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/icons/eyebrow-icon-blue.svg)

###### Step 2

## Create a shared definition for terms.

Examples: content, rigor, differentiated resources, high-quality instruction for content for students, teachers, leaders, and community members.

![eyebrow-icon-blue](https://www.edelements.com/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/icons/eyebrow-icon-blue.svg)

###### Step 3

## Strategically test your new curriculum.

We gather data on user experiences (student, teacher, leader, community members) through observations, surveys, student work samples.

![AdobeStock_768205980](https://www.edelements.com/hs-fs/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/images/Standard%20Photos/AdobeStock_768205980.jpeg?width=2000&name=AdobeStock_768205980.jpeg)

![Firefly_77d98d66-6327-49b3-be26-33e8232ede8f](https://www.edelements.com/hs-fs/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/images/Standard%20Photos/Firefly_77d98d66-6327-49b3-be26-33e8232ede8f.jpeg?width=2000&name=Firefly_77d98d66-6327-49b3-be26-33e8232ede8f.jpeg)

![eyebrow-icon-blue](https://www.edelements.com/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/icons/eyebrow-icon-blue.svg)

###### Step 4

## Design systems and processes.

Evaluate curriculum quality, standards-alignment, level of change needed, and evidence basis. Design a selection tool that supports committee evaluation and reduces bias when evaluating content and materials.

#### Curriculum Audit

Our expert-led teams assess current materials for strengths, opportunities, and next steps - including the need for high quality materials.

## What to Expect Working With Us

At Education Elements, we believe that a curriculum is much **larger than a textbook**. We believe a curriculum should be rigorous, develop conceptual understanding of content and skills, and integrate learners' cultures and identities. Materials that have these characteristics empower learners to build critical awareness of themselves, their communities, and the world.

 

Transformational learning occurs when there is alignment between the intentional design and use of high quality instructional materials.

Through our audit and review process, we empower teachers and leaders to ensure that curriculum focuses on grade level standards and the learners experiencing it. We believe that a high quality curriculum must meet criteria for core instructional components, content, and context-specific priorities.

![2518971_BrandedCollagesCopy-13_122324](https://www.edelements.com/hs-fs/hubfs/2518971_BrandedCollagesCopy-13_122324.png?width=1500&height=1500&name=2518971_BrandedCollagesCopy-13_122324.png)

![5106277](https://www.edelements.com/hs-fs/hubfs/theme-assets-s2/images/Standard%20Photos/5106277.jpg?width=2000&name=5106277.jpg)

## **Our approach is two tier**

**1. T****he Materials Audit**

Our team of content experts look at curricular materials and create a readout with strengths, opportunities, and next steps; districts gain understanding of the extent to which curriculum meets the criteria for High Quality Instructional Materials.

**2. Culturally Responsive Guided Review + Analysis**

Our team will partner with a local committee of school and district leaders, teachers, students, and families to design and facilitate experiences that illuminate strengths, opportunities, and next steps for materials with a culturally responsive lens.
