How Teachers Create a Scope and Sequence for the School Year
How Teachers Create a Scope and Sequence for the School Year

A properly designed school curriculum stands on the firm pillars of defined scope and concrete sequence. The statement of scope and sequence describes the content and skills that a student needs to master in progressive order by the end of the session. The way teachers create a scope and sequence depends upon what they anticipate from their students to acquire from the school curriculum. It is an arduous job that requires a lot of patience and in-depth knowledge of the subject, but it can be boiled down to three simple steps.

Tracy, United Way
"I want to express my gratitude for the much-needed Mental Health training that Tiffany provided to my team today. I would really like to continue this training for my team and clients if this is ever possible. I will find the money for this training because it is PRICELESS! I told Tiffany today that I really did not want to attend this training, only because I was stressed out about time. I absolutely love Tiffany. This is my excuse for self-care, that I never have enough time for ME. So, starting today, I am going to change that mindset."

Cris McCoy, Principal Sugar Creek Elementary
“[Working with Dianne] made me feel empowered. Before the process, I was totally overwhelmed and angry when we received a poor school letter grade. I wanted to be a strong leader, but didn’t know what that would look like or how to do it. Through the process, I discovered that when you are overwhelmed, that it’s very hard to make positive change happen. I learned that being a good leader doesn’t mean doing it all, it means doing it all together. I learned that I had to trust the process, (after all, we didn’t have much to lose at that point) and those around me. There were times it was very challenging, but I knew that I had support. I gained confidence, and feel much more equipped to lead change in a school.”

Ashley Schenck, 5th grade teacher
“Mrs. Creager was an incredible asset to the students and staff within our building. She had such an amazing way of connecting with students and helping staff members do the same. I was truly blessed in my time of working with Mrs. Creager to learn so many skills that were helpful in working with students in my classroom. For example, she taught myself and my class the ability to breathe and relax through times that may have caused anxiety, for example – state testing. I saw so many students use these skills during testing each day and even after in the general classroom. Mrs. Creager’s knowledge about mental health would be an asset to any organization or facility.”

Melissa Gill, Assistant Principal, Delphi Community School Corporation
“Education is constantly changing! It is easy to become isolated and stuck. INcompassing Education is cutting edge with current best practice and strategies. Dianne’s work with many state districts has allowed us to really understand that we are all in this together and everyone is fighting the same battle. Not only does INcompassing Education help determine the instructional gaps and needs of the school to improve practice, but Dianne models and stands in the gap with the school to ensure instructional gains. She works tirelessly to support her schools.”

Sylvia Rendon Instructional Coach, James Bowie Elementary
"I had the pleasure of working with April Connelley for one year 2021-2022. For years, our campus struggled in finding ways to accelerate student reading skills without much success. When April came to our campus, she engaged our teachers in reading skills and activities that reflected her professional expertise and knowledge. Her resourcefulness accelerated our teacher’s ability to meet the needs of even the most struggling learner.

April’s approach to coaching worked wonders for our teachers. Her commitment to our teacher’s professional learning, resulted in them taking a new approach in executing productive and engaging lessons. As a result of their new learning, our teachers developed the skills and confidence needed to achieve their set goals. Had it not been for April, our campus would not have shown such great gains in reading success. I sincerely feel that any campus would be privileged to have April on their
team."

“Dianne’s knowledge base of working with many schools in many states under many different kinds of standards is rich and deep. It brings deep overall understanding of the instructional process and what truly works in education. She is able to dispel many wrong perception and attitudes about what effective classroom instruction should be. [She has the] ability to quickly assess where teachers are and accommodate their needs into every PD session. Dianne has become a professional colleague and friend to our principals and teachers.”

Brian Johnson, Principal Green Meadows Intermediate
“In August 2013, I was a first-year principal of a struggling, low-performing school. Our school began working with Dianne that September, and we saw an immediate positive impact on staff and student performance. Dianne supported us in building a foundation that changed the culture and climate of the school. Over the past 2.5 years, Dianne has become a part of us and helped our school grow in so many ways. Through Dianne’s work and support, I have become a more effective school leader and our staff has become a stronger team with a better understanding of what it looks like to provide a high-quality education to all students. Dianne McKinley is a difference maker!”
