MDE Releases Three New Documents to Support Educators as Schools Re-Open

The Mississippi Department of Education is excited to share three newly released documents to support educators as schools re-open.

 The Grades K-12 Instructional Planning Guides in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science provide suggested guidance for classroom teachers as they develop lessons plans.  Each Guide includes intentional grouping of standards by term and recommendations for resources.

 The Recommendations for PK-12 Arts Education represents a workable program that balances student health and safety in all art classes as schools re-open.

 The Equipped: Mississippi Booklist for All promotes literacy through a variety of high-quality, rigorous texts across various cultures, genres, and facets of the human experience.

 We encourage feedback as teachers begin to implement these resources.   For additional support or questions, please feel free to contact the appropriate staff in the Office of Elementary Education and Reading or the Office of Secondary Education.
