Curriculum Map Template Example

A 5th grade science year mapped month by month, with the standards and assessment for every unit.

Curriculum map for 5th grade science filled in month by month from August to June: each month's unit, the content and skills, the NGSS performance expectations and the assessment, from matter in the fall to space patterns and gravity in the spring.

What's in the Curriculum Map Template

One Row for Each Month

August to June, so the map follows the calendar your school runs on.

Content and Skills Columns

What students learn in one column, and what they do with it in the next.

Standards and Assessments

Room to name the standards each unit meets and how you will check them.

Editable Versions

Type into the Word, Google Docs or PDF file, or print it to fill in by hand.

How to Build a Curriculum Map

  1. Label the Map

    Write the teacher, subject, grade and school year in the four fields above the table.

  2. Name One Unit per Month

    Put a unit title in each month's row. If a unit runs two months, repeat its title in both.

  3. Fill Content and Skills

    List the ideas students learn in the Content column and what they do in the Skills column.

  4. Add Standards and Assessment

    Copy the standards from your state or district, then name the main assessment for each unit.

  5. Review It with Your Team

    Print the finished map and look for gaps or repeats between grades before the year begins.
