Writing Homework Help

When  teachers contextualize learning and integrate that context across all  subjects, students are typically more engaged in learning and are able  to make connections.

For  this benchmark assignment, you will create a four day mini-unit by  completing the “STEM Unit Plan Template” that integrates science, math,  technology, and engineering. Select a K-3 grade level for your unit  (preferably the same grade you have been using throughout this course)  and one area (science, math, technology, or engineering) to use as the  primary content area of focus. Integrate the three remaining content  areas into the unit as much as possible. Use your state’s standards to  identify the learning goals and targets. Use the “Class Profile” to  provide background data on your students.

In your unit be sure to outline lessons that:

1. Develop  students’ abilities to use the major concepts of the subject area  (science, technology, engineering, or math) that you selected for the  unit.
2. Integrate concepts from the remaining three content areas to help students successfully apply their developing skills.
3. Incorporate effective strategies in which students engage in the equitable and appropriate use of digital tools and resources
4. Differentiate  the instruction based on the needs of the students in the class (as  outlined on the “Class Profile”), using developmentally, culturally, and  linguistically appropriate teaching and learning strategies

In addition, include a research-based rationale for your instructional choices. In 750-1,000 words, describe the following:

1. An explanation of the strategies and resources utilized, including technological tools, for the STEM instruction.
2. How  you used the data from the “Class Profile” to modify instruction to  meet each child’s learning needs and promote positive outcomes.
3. How the legal and ethical use of digital information and technology would be modeled in the unit.
