Social studies instruction, when properly planned and implemented, can promote responsible citizenship in elementary students. In a culturally diverse democratic society, it is important for students to make informed decisions in order to be good citizens in our interdependent world.
For this assignment, you will use the “5 Day Unit Plan Template” to create a five-lesson unit designed for the students in your clinical field experience class. Identify a K-8 grade level, 1-2 social studies standards, and at least one arts standard as the focus of your unit plan. You may adapt any previous assignments in the creation of this unit plan.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
