We often hear that teachers struggle with pacing instruction as well as preparing for instruction. In an effort to support educators in making these difficult decisions, we’ve created a Pacing and Preparation Guide for each grade, PK through 12. Each guide includes two components: Preparing to Teach a Module, which outlines a process for understanding the instructional sequences, and Preparing to Teach a Lesson, which outlines a process for customizing any lesson to fit the daily time constraints and unique needs of students. Both of these components guide teachers in making informed decisions about pacing. Because of the number of lessons in PK through Grade 7, the guides for those grade levels include a third component called Suggestions for Consolidation or Omissions.
