How to connect curriculum outcomes to lessons

Choose the curriculum objectives each class covers this year, attach them to the lessons that teach them, and let coverage build itself.

The steps
  1. Open the curriculum library

    On the Curriculum page, open the Curriculum library. Find your curriculum by jurisdiction, check the source it came from, and add it to your workspace.

  2. Choose what this class covers

    Pick a class, then work down the objective list and add the ones it covers this year. Each class keeps its own selection, so two sections of the same course can differ.

  3. Read an objective in full

    Selecting an objective shows its code, its guiding questions, its skills and its strands — not just a line of text. That is usually enough to decide which lesson should carry it.

  4. Attach curriculum to a lesson

    In the lesson editor, open Curriculum and add a guiding question, a learning outcome, or individual knowledge, understanding and skill statements. A lesson can carry several.

  5. Watch coverage build

    The bar at the top of the Curriculum page shows how many objectives are taught, planned, and not yet planned for that class. It updates from your lessons, so it is a by-product of planning rather than a spreadsheet you keep separately.

Questions
Can two sections of the same course cover different objectives?
Yes. Each class keeps its own selection for the year, so 7A and 7B can differ.
How does an objective become "taught"?
By being attached to a lesson that has already been taught. Objectives on lessons still ahead of you count as planned.
