Grade K
Thematic Pacing Guides
SVSU PSA teachers created a themed pacing guide for those who want to teach the four content areas in a concentrated way. There is a thematic overview that combines ELA, science, mathematics, and social studies GLCEs into one document.
Each content area has its own pacing guide that is linked to the thematic overview.
Essential questions, assessments, and resource ideas are linked to the original theme, organized by units.
The original pacing guides for science and social studies that are NOT linked thematically are still available below.
