9 ĭn-strŭk′shən’al mə-tîr′ē-əls All materials designed for use by students and their teachers as learning resources to help students to acquire facts, skills, and/or to develop cognitive processes. These instructional materials, used to help students meet state learning standards, may be printed or digital, and may include textbooks, technology-based materials, other educational media, and assessments. They may carry different licensing types from open to all rights reserved.

10 Under the Instructional Materials Umbrella Individual units, lessons, and plans Supplemental resources – formally adopted or not K-12 core curricula District-created materials/resources Online courses Teacher-created materials Maple by kanegen – CC BY These resources may be in any delivery platform and carry any license.

13 WSSDA Featured Policies District Sample Policies & Procedures – Updated April 2015 Instructional Materials Selection & Adoption: Policy 2020; 2020P New Instructional Materials Model Policy

14 Core Instructional Materials are the primary instructional resources for a given course. They are district- approved and provided to all students to help meet learning standards and provide instruction towards course requirements. Alternative Core Materials are the primary instructional materials for a given course that are used with a subset of students. These materials are intended to replace approved core materials and may be used for specialized course offerings or flexible learning environments.

Supplemental Materials are used in conjunction with the core instructional materials of a course. These items extend and support instruction. Temporary Supplemental Materials are those items used in conjunction with the core instructional materials of a course that are of interest or value for a short period of time and are chosen within district-established guidelines.

17 Selecting Instructional Material What category of instructional materials does the resource fall into? Does the item need to go through a vetting process? By whom? What review instruments are available or what reviews already exist? Do I have permission to use this? Are adaptations required and do you have permission to adapt? What is the delivery platform? Consider equity and access issues. Before you think about using ANY resource, you need to answer some questions… ?

34 Mathematics—High School Math: Developing Conceptual Understanding through Productive Routines This workshop has a content focus on quadratic functions and a pedagogical focus on the implementation of instructional routines that promote mathematical reasoning and student discourse. Teachers will explore quadratic functions through rich tasks, and they will have the opportunity to experience, analyze, and learn to implement productive instructional routines and strategies that they can incorporate into their mathematics lessons and units. Science—Biology EOC: Closing the Achievement Gap This professional learning experience will focus on strategies for improving students’ performance on the Biology EOC assessment and provide guidance for navigating some of the more challenging assessment items. Teachers will increase their understanding of Research and Explore and Criteria and Constraints Application items, develop strategies that engage all students in responding successfully to assessment prompts, explore student confidence and readiness for the Biology EOC, and create personal action plans for sustaining student achievement.

Cohort of 10 districts has taken up the #GoOpen challenge to replace at least one textbook with openly licensed educational resources within the next year. #GoOpen Ambassador Districts currently use openly licensed educational materials and are committed to helping other districts understand how to effectively discover and curate these resources
