8th grade Scope and Sequence
Regularly utilize non-fiction selections to create text dependent questions and culminating activities.
Please follow the Scope and Sequence Standards listed for each quarter to ensure district-wide alignment.
Suggest implementing Basic Core Skill Units throughout year (near the beginning of each quarter) rather than as the first four units of instruction.
Common Core Theme Units:
- Balance 50/50 for literature and non-fiction text.
- Use a variety of Lexile levels with most texts within the grade-level band (1010 – 1185).
- Collaborate to avoid reading same texts in multiple grade levels.
Please follow the Scope and Sequence Standards listed for each quarter to ensure district-wide alignment.
