Instructional Materials Adoption Toolkit

April 9, 2025

UnboundEd’s Instructional Materials Adoption Toolkit supports district instructional leaders as they begin to lead an instructional materials adoption process. Our curriculum adoption process contains five phases and is anchored in research-based best practices, aligned to the local context, and grounded in the belief that all students deserve access to high-quality instructional materials (HQIM).

The Instructional Materials Adoption Toolkit provides resources for Phase I: Lead with a Vision and a Plan,  Phase II: Know Your Needs, Phase III: Identify and Evaluate Your Options, and Phases IV-V: Select Your Best Fit and Prepare for Launch and Implementation. Use these phases of our toolkit to support your adoption process.

Please fill out the form below to access the toolkit.
