Curriculum Maps

One page visual presentations of the knowledge, understanding, and
skills & procedures (KUSP) outcomes for each guiding question in the curriculum.   

Overview

The curriculum maps are intended to provide a useful reference guide to the Knowledge, Understanding, and Skills & Procedures (KUSP's) outcomes for each Guiding Question. The maps include all KUSP outcomes from the March 2023 version of the Alberta K-6 science curriculum (https://curriculum.learnalberta.ca/).

Curriculum Map Organization

In addition to supporting identification of relationships between outcomes within each guiding question, we also encourage teachers to use these maps to identify connections across the outcomes within each grade level. In particular, the outcomes for Computer Science and Scientific Methods lend themselves to being integrated throughout the year with outcomes related  the Matter, Energy, Earth Systems, Living Systems, and Space.

Each map can be (1) previewed, (2) downloaded as a PDF file for printing on 8.5" x 11" paper, or (3) accessed as a modifiable Google Draw file. See instructions below.
