Preferred term

middle school curriculum  

Definition

  • Curriculum for middle schools should be different from elementary and high school curriculumas different as the developmental needs of 10- to 14-year-olds are from younger and older students. As young adolescents become more cognizant of the world around them and of their place in it, developmentally responsive forms of middle school curricula reflect that awareness.
