Since intelligence can be influenced by circumstance and environment, The Parallel Curriculum Model Unit, K-5, shows elementary educators how to provide clear unit planning utilizing the empirical-based model. Broken out into 4 sections, this resource provides the following: 1) a chapter on each content unit in K-5 literacy, mathematics, social studies and science using the Model; 2) a content framework based on national and content standards; 3) unit assessments, and 4) unit sequence as well as teacher reflection lessons. Approximately 5-7 lessons of each content area will be provided in every chapter in this handy resource. The opening chapter defines what The Parallel Curriculum is and discusses how this researched-based curriculum can be created and utilized for gifted learners, learners with special needs, as well as general education students. Recognizing that curricula should be flexible to meet the needs of all learners, The Parallel Curriculum Model Unit Book, K-5, provides a educational rationale for developing a new curriculum model, gives a brief overview of the theoretical underpinnings of the model, and aims to help practitioners apply the specific units and lessons in the classroom.

Learn to design exemplary Parallel Curriculum Units from the experts—classroom teachers! What is the best way to incorporate the four parallels into your Parallel Curriculum Unit? How do teachers using the Parallel Curriculum Model (PCM) craft units based on the PCM and why do they utilize certain elements and downplay others? What does a complete Parallel Curriculum Unit look like? This compilation of Parallel Curriculum Units provides a close-up look into the development of PCM units and how those units work in actual classroom settings. The Parallel Curriculum in the Classroom, Book 2 reflects a variety of Parallel Curriculum units spanning primary, elementary, middle, and high school levels of instruction and encompassing the disciplines of social studies, science, art, math, and language arts. Across each unit, the authors present a framework of three essential components in an effective Parallel Curriculum Unit: The big picture of grade level, subject, goals, and standards The unpacking, or step-by-step explanation of the unit The reasoning behind the unit design Whether using each parallel independently or combining all four parallels into curriculum design, teachers will find the units included here are exemplary models for creating their own parallel curriculum units. Use them as professional development tools to help plan thoughtful curriculum based upon the Parallel Curriculum Model!

Given that intelligence is flexible and can be influenced by circumstance and environment, education at all levels ought to be about providing environments and opportunities designed to maximize individual capacity. The Parallel Curriculum represents a synthesizing of views and approaches to creating curriculum for gifted learners, rather than reflecting any single view or approach. The book provides a rationale for developing a new curriculum model, gives a brief overview of the theoretical underpinnings of the model, and aims to help practitioners envision specific application. It is important to realize how narrow views of intelligence limit our growth as individuals, and restrict members of diverse cultures who value intelligences that are typically not addressed in schools. The Parallel Curriculum provides guidance to teachers of students in various age groups and populations, as well as teachers of varied subject areas and in varied programmes contexts.
