While in college, I first learned about the CCCS. While there, all of my professors continualy mentioned the importance of them, especially when the topics of lesson plans came up.
I truly understood the importance of the NJCCCS when I had to re-write the K-5 Health and PE curriculum. It made the process much easier and more efficeint. Knowing what material to use and when is extremely important. The standards help with that and will allow teachers to keep the students on the right track.
Having standards will also provide teachers with a resource to keep them all on the same page. As long as teachers follow the standards, they will be able to rely on one another for help and ideas throughout the year.
