Assist your mentor teacher with teaching at least one social studies lesson. Take note of the use of social studies text and other print and non-print resources, as well as how the mentor teacher differentiates the instruction. After the teaching experience, speak with your mentor teacher about how he or she differentiates instruction to address the learning needs of the students in a class.

In addition, collaborate with your mentor teacher to review the social studies textbook and other print materials and non-print resources that are used to teach social studies in your clinical field experience classroom. Analyze the text, materials, and resources to determine what opportunities or supports are provided for teachers to address cultural relevance and differentiated learning.

Write a 250-500 word reflection that summarizes the following:

· Differentiated instruction and instructional materials for individual students with particular learning differences or needs that were observed.

· Inclusion of students’ experiences, cultures, and community into social studies instruction and instructional resources.

· Analysis of how the text, materials and resources address cultural relevance and differentiated learning.

· How you will apply what you have learned to future professional practice.
