III- PROBLEM SET:
Personal Reflection:
Is it necessary for teachers to learn about the school curriculum? Why? (5 points)

Yes because a school's curriculum informs teachers what skills must be taught at


each grade level to ultimately prepare students for postsecondary education or a
job. Understanding the big picture helps teachers align the learning objectives of
their own curriculum with the school's curriculum. At a national level, the purpose
of a curriculum is to set out an entitlement for all pupils to the knowledge and
learning that our society determines is the most powerful and important for a
well-rounded education
