EDU 521 - The Thematic Elementary Curriculum: Social Studies and Literacy


Prerequisites: None
This final methods course is designed to be a culmination of all elementary education MAT course work and supports students’ continued development toward teaching in a global and culturally diverse world. Participants explore theoretical principles and procedures which lead to the instructional practice of social studies in the elementary school. In addition, literacy across the curriculum practices are once again reviewed to bring participants to a clear understanding of how literacy is integrated throughout the school day. Current standards for literacy are revisited and National Standards for Social Studies are reviewed. Field experiences include working in a multicultural setting. Students must also demonstrate competence in using instructional technology.
