Unpacking the Standard: What do we want students to Know, Understand and Do (KUD):
The purpose of creating a Know, Understand, and Do Map (KUD) is to further the unwrapping of a standard beyond what the MDS
provides and assist PLCs in answering question #1, “What do we expect all students to learn?” It is important for PLCs to study the
focus standards in the unit to ensure that all members have a mutual understanding of what student learning will look like and sound
like when the standards are achieved. Additionally, collectively unwrapping the standard will help with the creation of the unidimensional scale (for use with students). When creating a KUD, it is important to consider the standard under study within a K-12
progression and identify the prerequisite skills, from prior grade level standards, that are essential for mastery of the standard.

Uni-Dimensional, Lesson Scale:
The uni-dimensional, lesson scale unwraps the cognitive complexity of a focus standard for the unit, using student friendly language. The
purpose is to articulate distinct levels of knowledge and skills relative to a specific topic and provide a roadmap for designing instruction
that reflects a progression of learning. The sample performance scale shown below is just one example for PLCs to use as a springboard
when creating their own scales for student-owned progress monitoring. The lesson scale should prompt teams to further explore
question #2, “How will we know if and when they’ve learned it?” for each of the focus standards in the unit and make connections to
Design Question 1, “Communicating Learning Goals and Feedback” (Domain 1: Classroom Strategies and Behaviors). Keep in mind that
a 3.0 on the scale indicates proficiency and includes the actual standard. A level 4.0 extends the learning to a higher cognitive level. Like
the multidimensional scale, the goal is for all students to strive for that higher cognitive level, not just the academically advanced. A
level 2.0 outlines the basic declarative and procedural knowledge that is necessary to build towards the standard
