ED 360 - Integrated Thematic Instruction: Science, Social Studies and the Arts3 credits Students, as teachers/learners, will explore the concept of using science, social studies, and the visual and performing arts as a frame for the rest of the curriculum. Topics in social studies and science will be approached through hands-on learning, critical thinking, and using the community as a real-world text. Students will be introduced to state frameworks and standards and will create a thematic unit that demonstrates their ability to think creatively, plan instruction, utilize school and community resources, and integrate all curricular areas. Additionally, participants will have opportunities to examine standard texts, curricula and materials used in public schools, and to analyze the impact of biases and misconceptions on children’s learning. Emphasis will be placed on the inclusion of English language learners and children with special needs. |
