Example from my student teaching:
Though I used the Common Core Standards while teaching Math and ELA during my student teaching, for Science and Social Studies South Carolina remained on state standards. For this unit, I used the state standards for Weather, which included the following goals:
-TSW understand weather impacts daily life
-TSW understand specific tools can be used to measure the weather
-TSW understand severe weather can be dangerous
For this specific lesson I aligned my instruction with the goal "TSW understand severe weather can be dangerous." By incorporating class discussion, tangible flipbook creation, and direct teaching, I ensured my students grasped this unit goal.
