Planning for freshmen
Ninth graders arrive with uneven preparation, so plans at this grade include a short diagnostic opener and a differentiation section with both reteach and extension paths. Activities are sized to a standard period and include an exit ticket.
High school standards are organized by course rather than by grade. When you choose 9th grade, the standards picker shows high school Common Core and NGSS options; pick the one that matches the course you're teaching.
