Curriculum Information for Parents
Have you ever wondered what your child is learning and why? Parents should always have the opportunity to play an active role in their child's education. That's why I decided to provide these links to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS).
CCSS- 42 states, Washington, D.C. and 4 U.S. territories have adopted Common Core State Standards. In FL 7th grade Civics, we are responsible for mastery of the Grade 6-8 Literacy in History and Social Studies as part of the English Language Arts Standards. By clicking on CCSS, you can access these standards.
FLDOE on the CCSS- This is the Florida Department of Education website's page devoted to the implementation of the CCSS. This site has extremely valuable information and additional links to all things CCSS.
NGSSS- These are the standards for Florida schools- what your child should know and be able to do at each grade level. By clicking on the NGSSS link, you can look up benchmarks (categories within each standard needed for mastery) for any subject and any grade level.
For our civics class: Subject- Social Studies Grade Level- 7. You do not have to enter a strand, all benchmarks will be listed for you, just scroll down.
