Content

Content is the what.  Content is defined by the Webster Groves School District curriculum.  The content is what students will know, understand, and be able to do as a result of the sequence of teaching and learning.

CONTENT is the "what" of teaching - the curricular topics, concepts, or themes presented to students.  Content is differentiated by concentrating on the most essential understandings, concepts, and skills then varying the complexity of learning.
