Scope and sequence chart (grades 1-7)

Since we've been talking about coherent & focused curriculum lately, and someone asked about scope and sequence, I decided to make a chart.

It's just a rough GUIDELINE and it only includes the major topics.



The idea is to show the major focus on each grade and how it changes over the years. And I don't mean that you wouldn't teach a first grader about 1/2. The chart only deals with the major focus
for the topic.

And here you can find more details: Scope and sequence suggestion (grades 1-7)

Thanks. I think that will be a good guideline for thinking about things.

Hi,

I appreciate your website and specifically this scope and sequence. you make math understandable and relevant with the advice and resources you provide. The scope and sequence wil be very helpful to me in planning for next year.

maria - I have worked on creating such a chart. I have one for reading skills - the Reading Skills Pyramid - and have been working intermittently on the math one. I've been trying to also work in a sense of a concept map which has made it very complicated...

In your scope and sequence chart, the addition/subtraction strand seems to go across grades 1-7, with upper grades focusing on integers and scientific notations. However, the multiplication and division strand seems to end before Grade 7. Wouldn't we be discussing multiplication and division of integers and scientific notations as well in upper grades?
Thanks for this! This is the best scope and sequence I've seen- presenting it visually this way makes it lots easier to understand.
