About this title

Synopsis

Unlike books that focus on either the “how” or “what” of teaching, Curriculum and Instructional Methods for the Elementary and Middle School explores both the “how” and “what” , and provides an integrative approach to ensure teachers a broad knowledge base when they enter the classroom. A five-part organization covers challenge, choice, and responsibility of elementary and middle school teachers; delivery of instruction: how teachers teach; implementing the curriculum; and professional growth. For active and future elementary and middle school teachers.

From the Publisher

Expanded to encompass middle school curriculum and instructional methods, this is the new edition of a distinctive text whose strong treatment of instructional models, and careful descriptions of elementary and middle school content areas provides the solid background students need to succeed as teachers. In the Third Edition, the author's keen insights and practical attitude have been extended to address the challenges of teaching middle as well as elementary school. Lemlech emphasizes the importance of a balanced curriculum and helps future teachers develop a broad repertoire of teaching strategies. The book offers a perspective on how schools, the curriculum, professional preparation, and pedagogy have developed from colonial times to the present day...examines the variety of pedagogical vehicles available to today's teachers for delivering instruction...and discusses every teacher's personal responsibility for professional growth and development.
