Integrated Concept-based Learning Segment Plan

As your culminating project you will design a short instructional mini-unit of 3-5 lessons (Learning Segment, in the language of edTPA), which, while teaching Social Studies content, also teaches one literacy strategy. To create your Learning Segment, you will complete the Planning Commentary Document as per the edTPA Learning Activity 1: Planning for Literacy Instruction and Assessment. See pages 12 – 21 of the edTPA Elementary Education Handbook; especially the Planning Commentary (pp. 14, 15) and Rubrics 1 – 5 (pp. 17 – 21). The Planning Commentary Document is posted in Module 6, along with a GUIDELINES document. Also see Learning Activities 1 information in Making Good Choices (pp. 5, 6, 9 – 15). Lesson plan sample will be presented
