September (American Founders’ Month) is an important month for Social Studies instruction and one of the busiest for instructional statutes. Instructional statutes are required instruction in addition to standards aligned instruction for your course and grade level. Please make sure that you are documenting in your PLC minutes how you are embedding and meeting the instructional statutes. Below you will find a list of important dates linked to resources within our learning networks and within the MyLearning Canvas courses. As the FLDOE updates resources those will be included as well within our instructional mandates page. Also new within the LN Mandates Pages is a hyperlinked calendar with ideas and resources for the month.
