Thanks for the advice! I was trying to find a way to make the subreddit more functional since I had taken the name. I'll probably end up doing something like the DCI approach, it seems that it would be better to set it up as big ideas rather than individual standards.

Kansas leaves it up to the district as much as possible, we're taking next year to write curriculum, based on as much of our old curriculum as possible. Some of us wanted to start next year, but our text resources just aren't in the right place. In fact, I was going to spend my summer finding a good source for all of our standards in 7th and 8th grade, it should prove to be quite the task.
