Through the completion of my graduate program in Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment, I have gained an immense amount of knowledge and a plethora of skills which I have used and found valuable in my seventh grade English classroom.

School Board, As a curriculum specialist, I recommend that you add a critical thinking curriculum to the five- year plan with a few exceptions. Students would only be required to take the curriculum if their grades were suffering. This would allow students with failing grades to learn how to manage their time and improve their grades.
