This Leadership Portfolio Project was to design a unit curricula to help students learn how to use ukuleles to make music and explore music to develop empathy and cultural competence based on our practicum placement setting. The following is the unit curricula containing standards, goals, and assessments that Kathleen Gibson, Sophia Kadi, and I wrote. Through this process of creating this curricula, I learned the importance of being specific when identifying standards and developing "I can" statements in a way that produces good evidence. I learned that this process takes time and lots of critical thinking to ensure that what I am assessing and asking for as evidence aligns with what my lesson plans and activities are. There must be continuity between lessons and assessments. I enjoyed writing goals and separating them into knowledges, skills, understanding, and transfer because it helped me better understand what my students were demonstrating when they accomplished certain tasks. Creating curricula right now is difficult, long, and hard, but hopefully overtime it becomes easier as I learn how to be more specific and intentional in my activities and assessment.
