School closures as a result of COVID-19 pandemic have contributed to the worsening of learning poverty and the learning crisis. At the core of the learning crisis, there is an instructional crisis. Low learning outcomes are the result of several weaknesses within education systems, which create less than ideal learning environments.
The learning crisis often results from the failure to deliver sufficient amounts of high-quality instruction, whether due to school closures, poor education quality for those enrolled, or the privation of instruction out-of-school children suffer. The deficiencies that lead to the learning crisis may be seen as falling into three groups: curricular deficiencies, pedagogical deficiencies, and support deficiencies.
The CIL team has delivered a set of global public goods and implemented country-tailored interventions that operationalize the best available evidence on the science of reading through structured pedagogy, instructional coherence, and effective language of instruction policies:
The products of the Lesson Plans work program serve as a series of tools for countries to use to revise and improve their approach to EGR instruction for the first three years of schooling. The ultimate goal is to develop, or in some cases enable the development of, lesson plans that embody an improved scope and sequence aligned with explicit learning goals, utilizing the principles from the science of reading, and integrating the elements of teacher professional development.
As part of this process, the team has designed an architecture for EGR that outlines a progression in learning to read informed by the science of learning. The levels of progressions are color coded to make it easier to communicate reading abilities, inform teaching at the right level, inform structured pedagogy design, and inform reading materials and digital software design. This work is also expected to inform tech app developers.
On the implementation side, the CIL team has worked to apply these global public goods in three countries: Mozambique, Niger, and Pakistan. Our teams utilized the principles in our global public goods to rapidly produce structured or more structured lesson plans. This was accomplished by the provision of technical assistance to clients and country teams for review of selected existing materials (curriculum, textbooks, teacher guides, lesson plans), and for the production or refinement of lesson plans. Efforts are expected to culminate in the availability of sets of model lesson plans to be piloted in an instructionally coherent way.

Focus on a slit gong in the Museum's Oceanic collection to illustrate the impact of scale in works of art, and consider objects' functions in their original contexts and ways different communities engage with their elders and ancestors. Classroom viewing questions and an oral history activity enhance the lesson.
Consider how artists convey personality in nonfigural portraits and the relationship between visual and verbal expression by looking at a painting by Charles Demuth in the Museum's Modern and Contemporary galleries and through a portrait-making activity in the classroom.
Study the relationship between the human and natural worlds in art, as well as the techniques artists use to convey ideas, by exploring a painting by Frederic Edwin Church in the Museum's American Wing. Extend the lesson through a writing and drawing activity in the classroom, or a sketching activity outdoors.
Students will be able to identify some of the key events and figures presented in the Persian national epic, the Shahnama (Book of Kings); make connections between the text and the illustrated pages of the manuscript produced for Shah Tahmasp; and create a historical record of their community.
Students will be able to recognize ways works of art reflect an intense interest in observation of the human and natural world among Mughal leaders; and understand ways works of art from the past and present communicate ideas about the natural world.
Bring the Museum's African collection into the classroom with viewing questions and an art-making activity that cultivate visual analysis and an understanding of how surface detail and composition can express themes of power and leadership.
Inspire students to interpret, communicate through, and personally connect with art through an in-classroom examination of a powerful sculpture in the Museum's Indian art collection and a self-portrait activity.
Students will be able to identify visual qualities of several calligraphic scripts; recognize ways artists from the Islamic world engage various scripts to enhance works of art supporting a range of functions; and assess the merits of several computer-generated fonts in supporting specific uses.
Use viewing questions and a debate activity to investigate the relationship between art and community values, techniques artists use to convey ideas, and strategies for interpreting an American painting in the Museum's Modern and Contemporary galleries.
This lesson can easily stand alone, as is, or can be broken into the smaller sections and spread out over multiple classes. And if you have more time to devote to the subject in one class period, additional crafts, activities, books and songs can easily be added as well.
