Instructional Programming and Classroom Management
Jennifer A. Chavez-Miller
I believe that challenging and relevant content begins with intentional teacher planning that maps out a school year through a Long Range Plan (LRP), units of instruction, and weekly and daily lesson plans. The content must be delivered through relevant, responsive and challenging resources. And, I know that effective instruction can only happen in an environment steeped in high expectations for conduct and academic achievement and one that nurtures a community of learners through safety and respect. For me, instruction, curriculum and classroom management are a tightly woven triad.
Here you will find examples of how I plan for instruction through curriculum design and classroom management.

CLASS SYLLABUS - 8th Grade Social Studies - 2014-1015 School Year
An example of my syllabus is included below. You can also download a PDF copy here.
Writing the class syllabus helps me to articulate how my class will function through curriculum, processing, and classroom management. I know that I must have a clear vision for the class in order to establish and maintain high expectations for student achievement and for a respectful and joyful environment that engages a community of learners. After I have my systems in place and documented, students and families receive a copy of the syllabus so that are informed of my expectations.
