Jay McTighe’s Suggested Curriculum Unit Planning Resources

Jay McTighe’s Suggested Curriculum Unit Planning Resources

Jay McTighe, co-author with Grant Wiggins of the Understanding by Design series, has updated an annotated list of free resources that support curriculum unit planning using the UbD framework. This 31-page list of sites can be accessed at www.jaymctighe.com (click on Resources at the top and then the Websites icon). Here’s what it includes:

-   Several exemplary state, district, and regional service agency websites;
-   Big ideas and essential questions in career education, counseling, health and physical education, English language arts, library/media, science, social studies, visual and performing arts, technology, theater/dance, and world/foreign languages;
-   Performance assessments and rubrics in those subject areas;

-   A few of McTighe’s most highly recommended general resource materials.
