Understands and uses instructional strategies that are appropriate to the content area.
I chose a lesson plan for an artifact to show strength and competence in this criteria.
It is a totem pole project and it links to my blog.
Reflection: I chose this particular lesson because it reflects the traditional social studies strategy of connecting geography, economics, social, and political aspects of culture when studying a civilization.
My goal was to get students thinking about how their own lives have these same aspects. It was a successful lesson in that most students were able to make some kind of connection and to represent it on a totem pole that they designed. It matches the criteria because we used hands-on learning, created a project, introduced the aspects of culture through an activity that would stick with them.
