How it runs in your room
Wiggins & McTighe's Understanding by Design framework, translated for World Languages. The pack teaches the 3-stage framework (desired results, acceptable evidence, learning experiences) and ships six full unit templates ready to drop into your year, at Novice Mid through Pre-Advanced. Includes the UbD-to-WL vocabulary map (transfer goals as ACTFL Performance Descriptor outcomes, essential questions worth six weeks, IPA as the Stage 2 default), the WHERETO learning-plan quality check, the Six Facets of Understanding each mapped to a concrete Spanish task, a 10-question textbook-chapter-vs-transfer-goal audit protocol, and a paired heritage Stage 1 plan so a mixed L2-and-heritage classroom can run differentiation by transfer goal, not just differentiation by task difficulty. Polished 17-page PDF plus editable Word + Slides scaffolds. Use across the year on one unit per semester until your scope and sequence stops resembling a textbook table of contents and starts resembling a transfer-goal map.
