Assessment Description

The integrated study of content areas enables students to engage through the purposeful application of content knowledge. Social studies is a content area that can be effectively integrated with multiple aspects of the arts, including visual arts, drama, and performance. Teachers can design meaningful learning experiences that are cross-curricular and guide students in the development of interdisciplinary skills within content area contexts, establishing connections that encourage exploration, discovery, and expression.

For this assignment, develop a learning experience that integrates the arts with social studies content and utilizes various forms of communication, incorporating interdisciplinary connections to real-world knowledge and skills. Research and examine a variety of teaching and instructional strategies for activities that engage students in complex thinking and meaningful tasks and lessons that integrate social studies and the arts.

Select a grade level (1st grade), at least one social studies and one arts standard from the state of Mississippi, and you're planning to obtain teacher certification that can be met in your learning activity.

You will use the same standards and learning objectives for Topics 1 through 3, as well as potentially apply them to the benchmark assignment. Review these assignments before writing your learning activity, so you are familiar with the upcoming expectations.

The learning activity should include:

· At least one grade level. Social studies standard and one arts standard.

· Learning objectives that reflect the social studies and arts standards and are measurable.

· 100-150-word description of the learning activity, including a justification for how it integrates social studies and the arts.

· At least two instructional strategies to be used during the activity to foster the development of creativity and critical thinking and enhance students’ problem-solving skills, while advancing student performance.

· At least one opportunity during the learning activity for students to collaborate and communicate with peers as they apply learning to real-world knowledge and/or skills.

Support the learning activity with two to three scholarly resources.

While APA Style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
