During the 2014-15 school year, my goal is to get to know the elementary instructional resources that have been developed in the School District of Waukesha. Like many districts, Waukesha utilizes the learning management system, Blackboard 9 for a variety of purposes including to store curriculum and instructional resources for educators.
District educators have access to this page to assist in lesson design and other resources through a password and username that is provided to teachers.
The "Common Core Math" section is a great resource. This resource is framed around time frame, vocabulary, essential questions, and enduring understandings. Within each unit it includes application activities, literature ideas, problem solving tasks, and assessments.
The School District of Waukesha BB9 page also includes links to current resources. Since the School District of Waukesha does not provide a scripted curriculum (basal) as a resource it has created this framework and curriculum that is directly connected to the Common Core. These resources have been developed, updated, and maintained by district teachers.

This is an excellent and invaluable resource to any School District of Waukesha elementary teacher responsible for providing instruction in math.
