After choosing national and state social studies and the arts standards to explore, you must determine appropriate strategies to assist students in learning content-specific language for social studies and the arts. Content language can be difficult for students to learn and can inhibit students’ understanding of the subject. Effective strategies can help students to master difficult content area language.
Choose a grade level K-12 and create a table including the following:
- One standard from social studies and one standard from the arts.
- At least one learning objective that demonstrates the cross-curricular use of both standards and inclusion of content vocabulary in an inclusive classroom.
- Minimum of three aligned strategies for each standard that allow students valuable opportunities to engage with the cross-curricular content and vocabulary. Include a brief description of each strategy and how it is appropriate for an inclusive classroom.
Support your strategies and rationales with a minimum of two scholarly resources.
