The JSD Proficiency Scale Exemplars are here!
The Jordan Teaching & Learning Department has collaborated with teacher teams across the district to develop Power Standards and corresponding Proficiency Scales for the content areas listed below. These scales are designed to complement your existing work, serving as both exemplars and anchors for grade-level expectations. Our goal was to ensure that Level 3 indicators align precisely with the depth and rigor of the Utah Core Standards.
How to Use These Scales:
These resources are intended to be flexible. Depending on your needs, you might:
Reference: Use them as a quality check against your current scales.
Refine: Adjust the indicators to better align with your specific instructional style.
Adopt: Use them as-is to streamline your transition to proficiency-based learning.
Whatever your approach, these scales are here to support you in maintaining high expectations and clear pathways for student success.
