ABSTRACT
Notice we are looking at the environment you create. Our tri-fold approach to rigor is not limited to the curriculum students ar e expected to learn. It is mor e than a specific lesson or inst uctional strategy. It is deeper than what a student says or does in r esponse to a lesson. T rue rigor is the result of weaving together the elements of curriculum, instruction, and assessment in a way that maximizes the learning of each student.
