Multitude of strategies to incorporate content across the curriculum

Educators use a multitude of strategies to incorporate content across the curriculum. They do this to ensure content mastery through various disciplines. Planning for instruction is an integral part of being effective at integrating instruction.
• Teach one or more ELA, social studies, and/or art lessons provided by your mentor teacher. Carefully review the results of any formal or informal assessments you administered as part of that teaching, to evaluate the effect of your teaching on student outcomes. • Discuss with your mentor teacher his or her teaching philosophy and methods for social studies and art instruction, and on integrating content areas. Include questions for discussion relating to his or her methods for differentiating for students at different levels. Connect these differentiation methods to a specific need (due to disability, developmental delay, bilingual language development, or another specific issue). Also, in preparation of Clinical Field Experience E in Topic 6, discuss a lesson, provided by your mentor, you can teach in ELA, social studies, or the arts. Review Clinical Field Experience E in Topic 6 to become familiar with the requirements. • Using any remaining field experience hours, assist the teacher in providing instruction and support to the class.
Following your instruction and collaborative meeting, write a 250-500 word summary on your experiences and the collaborative discussion with your mentor. Discuss opportunities for improvement and successes from your teaching, including feedback provided by the mentor teacher. Compare your philosophy and experience of teaching to that of your mentor. Additionally, discuss the lesson plan, provided by your mentor that you will tea in Clinical Field Experience
