New York State (NYS) Learning Standards for World Languages

The NYS World Language Standards Initiative is pleased to announce that selected unit plan exemplars created by world language educators around our state are now available to view on the LiveBinders platform.

Each unit plan exemplar was reviewed using a rubric to ensure alignment with the NYS Learning Standards for World Languages, as adopted by the NYS Board of Regents in 2021. Selected unit plan exemplars represent quality examples of unit plans that reflect the priorities of these revised standards. These exemplars will serve as a guide in developing thematic unit plans and support educators’ transition to the revised standards.
