Hi Euvelyn, In the school where I teach, we have curriculum maps uploaded to our internal email system (Lotus Notes) Teachers over the years have added their maps with associated benchmarks and resources. Another thing I find useful is that our state standard site has benchmark maps and provides very specific details about what the students should be able to learn(major understandings). Here is a link to our website in case you want to check it out.

It seems like I do overlap some of the benchmarks by way of scaffolding. One benchmark leads to another, and the "old material"(from previous benchmark) must often be revisited to when learning the new benchmark. I have also found that the scientific inquiry benchmarks can always be blended with the other content ones.
I hope some of this helps! Aloha, Nicole
