EED 364 Assignment 2 Social Studies Thematic Curriculum Design and Assessment

Using a graphic organizer of your choice, create a basic outline of a social studies theme that could be taught over the course of a month or longer.

Choose a topic that would include two or three units that flow in an orderly sequence. Display the unit titles in the graphic organizer with lesson titles and topics. Full lesson plans are not required.

Create a rationale statement as well as a student-friendly title for the entire theme.

Include sections on your graphic organizer for culminating activity ideas, field trips, guest speakers, and other resources, including literature.

Design at least two authentic assessments that address your topic: one formative and one summative.

While APA format is not required for this assignment, solid academic writing is expected and in-text citations and references should be presented.
