She is unfamiliar with the content because she has never taught it before. She has not received many teacher resources because the textbook coordinator says that they are not anymore. She also has to teach social studies. How can Mrs. Little ensure that she is preparing her students for the end of year test withh more than one prep in middle school? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would suggest looking at the curriculum map for the standards that need to be taught and following that. There are numerous websites that are standards based that offer lessons and ideas. It is extremely hard without resources, but from experience I can tell you that it is sometimes great, because it allows you to incorporate, pick, and tweak ideas. It allows you to not be so closed minded to just what the school's resources gives.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: This is a good solution. Picking up a curriculum map is a great way to get content laid out before you teach it. Rated On: October 19, 2014 8:21 pm Rated By: SuGaNe
