Curriculum & Instruction

These pages have been designed to help practitioners develop or enhance curriculum and instructional materials.

Please look at the chart below to guide your search. Take a stroll through our Introduction to the ABE Curriculum Frameworks (PDF file) and check out the just-released 42-page Lesson Planning Resource Guide (PDF file). If you're in a hurry, we offer ACLS's concise overview, Basics of Writing Lesson Plans.

We also recommend that you visit the complete Massachusetts Department of Education Curriculum Frameworks on the ACLS website.

Each SABES regional office has a curriculum and assessment coordinator who will be happy to assist you in your curriculum-related endeavors.
