Getting Started with MARE Guides

In 2008, a team of dedicated MARE educators assembled the following guides to help teachers who are new to MARE. Each grade level guide includes a selection of 3 "golden lessons," that first-year teachers should defiantly consider including in their curriculum. A scope and sequence matrix is included for each "golden lesson." Additionally, each guide includes a suggested thematic sequence for all the lessons included in the unit.

If you have any suggestions on how to improve these guides, please let us know.
