Section 3: UNIT STANDARDS AND OBJECTIVES

The Objectives and their aligned Standards for this unit were designed to address the Common
Core State Standards. They are meant to improve the literacy (speaking, writing, reading, and
listening) skills of students. Additionally, many of the objectives were created to increase
understanding of sequence, time, and numeracy in the classroom. Lastly, many objectives
revolve around technology via Google Classroom and the tools embedded into this site. This
helps students to grow in their technological proficiency.
The Objectives are aligned with the Standards below based on their correlated numbers. There
are varied Objectives to allow students to demonstrate their proficiency of content in multiple
