Description:

This course will provide future teachers with a blending of theory, teaching strategies and practices, content materials, curricular themes, and related processes for developing comprehensive plans for teaching children in inclusive elementary classrooms in grades 1-3. The New York State Learning Standards, and the content standards developed by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, the National Council of Teachers of Science, the National Council for the Social Studies, the International Reading Association, the Council for Exceptional Children, and other appropriate groups will be incorporated into integrated thematic units. These materials will be supplemented with appropriate texts and other resource materials. Students will learn how to accommodate diverse learners, utilize child-centered instructional methods, promote technological and content area literacy, assess student performance, and establish a learning environment that supports inquiry. Field Component: In preparation for student teaching, students will be required to participate in an inclusive classroom at the primary level. Students will actively participate in all aspects of the classroom to which they are assigned, and will directly assist the classroom teacher(s) in designing/planning, implementing, and evaluating curriculum. Students will gradually assume responsibility for the tasks involved in teaching and classroom management. (Offered spring term) Prerequisites: ED 101, ED 111, ED 121, ED 332.
