Teachers need rich instructional tools.
To fill this need, the IFL has developed a set of model units K-12 in the four core content areas that illustrate how research-based content and pedagogical routines can transform instruction and raise student achievement.
These units suggest teaching progressions and routines that assure a focus on what specific content needs to be taught and how it should be learned.
Model units include suggested texts, tasks, and teaching routines and guidance, as well as supports for English language learners and students with disabilities. Via Mel Riddile
