Assessment Description

It is important for all students, including students with disabilities, to have critical-thinking and problem-solving skills as tools to support them in the classroom with cross-curricular instruction.

Using your lesson from Topic 5, revise the lesson to include cross-curricular instruction.

Add the following to your lesson plan:

• At least one additional standard from a different content area in addition to the existing lesson plan standards.
• At least one new learning objective to include the new state content standard for cross-curricular planning across different content areas.
• At least one element of technology to promote the development of critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.

Submit the revised lesson plan, highlighting and/or bolding the additions so your instructor can easily identify your lesson revisions.

In addition, write a 500-750 word summary of the above revisions justifying how they support cross-curricular learning. Include an explanation of how the special education teacher and general education teachers will collaborate before, during, and/or after the lesson to create meaningful learning experiences

APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.  Use APA documentation guidelines to cite any resources referenced when creating the lesson plan.
