Baker, Eighth-Grade Social Studies TeacherSalem Middle School, Apex, NCStrategies for moving students towards more holistic and authentic types of learning!For both students and teachers, the mission is essential: to connect ideas, discern themes, and thread skills of various content areas into a cohesive whole. Yet, the question remains: &quote;What does integrating the curricula really mean?&quote; The answers are provided in this updated resource that helps teachers create brain-compatible, learner-centered classrooms and better prepare students for lifelong learning. Based on a four-pronged rationale for using an integrated curriculum-including findings from brain-based research, parental concerns, practitioner challenges, and student perspectives-Robin Fogarty offers ten models that allow teams of teachers to work together to group elements from various content areas into a coherent curriculum that effectively meets standards. The discussion of each model includes:A description of the modelHow the model can be applied in the classroomBenefits and challenges of the model for teaching and learningGuidelines for when and how to implement the model in the classroomA wealth of reproducibles to aid implementationHow to Integrate the Curricula offers the support educators need to integrate concepts, skills, and attitudes and immerse students in content through self-selected, personally relevant learning experiences.
