SCOS

In all honesty, the first time I looked at the SCOS for a single grade I was terrified. I just couldn't see any way in which I, as a teacher, would be able adequately cover all that the state wanted me to in a single year.

As I've worked in more and more classrooms I'm beginning to see that it's really not that difficult after all. You integrate the same goals and objectives in different lessons through out the year. There is a lot of information that needs to be covered, but you can do more than one goal in a lesson plan and, if you're creative enough, you can even incorporate many of the goals into play.
