Doing InterconnectionsInterconnections is a thematic approach to teaching the Utah elementary science and social studies core curricula. Introduced over a decade ago, Interconnections was and continues to be a collaborative effort of classroom teachers, media coordinators, curriculum specialists, and district administrators. Built on the Backward Design model, each grade level in the program includes four to six units sequenced to build on skills and knowledge outlined in the curricula and assessed through the state test (SAGE). Each unit includes an enduring understanding and three to five essential questions designed to teach both science and social studies comprehensively and efficiently.
