Step Eight: Essential Skills

The Essential Skills portion will be like a breath of fresh air after the Performance Task section!  On the SPN website (Gold Seal Lessons, Submit GSL) or in the resource page of this blog, you will find the Essential Skills for each core subject. 

Some of your GSL lessons will be interdisciplinary.  Outstanding!  In this case you will need to review other core subject's essential skills to copy and paste into this portion of the GSL. 

Keep in mind, you are only allotted ten essential skills total; only copy and paste the most relevant skills.   Also be sure to include the letters and numbers prior to the skill description when you include each skill in your lesson template.

In recent changes to the GSL format/ submission guidelines, the template indicates that the editor will insert these standards after studying your unit; however, I would assist the editor in this process.  You know best; you are the designer and teacher!
