The components of the written curriculum will include “layers” of objectives and increasingly complex student expectations to achieve total alignment and articulation through the level of teacher lesson delivery. The layers will include the following:

1. Standards—major topics or categories of learning for writing goals and objectives.

2. Objectives—broad goal statements around a particular concept or group of concepts. Objectives may not always be written using the same language as Washington Learning Standards since they will include goals identified in the Marysville School District  Graduate Profile and national standards.
