Competency Being Met:

3. Curricular Content Knowledge

CEC: Standard 3

3.5 Knowledge of Math for learners with exceptionalities including

Number Sense and Numeration
• Understands pre-numeration concepts (e.g., informal counting, meaning of number,
patterns)
• Understands basic number systems (e.g., whole numbers, integers, rational numbers,
fractions, decimals)
• Understands four basic operations (i.e., addition, subtractions, multiplication, and
division) and their properties (e.g., commutative, associative, distributive, order of
operations)
• Understands basic concepts of number theory (e.g., factors, multiples, place value,
odd/even, prime/composite)
• Knows how to solve problems, including word problems, using multiple strategies (e.g.,
modeling, estimation, algorithms) and assess the reasonableness of results
• Knows how to generate, describe, and explore numerical patterns and engage in
mathematical investigations

Narrative

I will show this video to my class to give an example of what we will be doing as a class
activity. After the video plays, I will pass out either Froot Loops, colored blocks, or something of
that sort to my students. Once every student has their materials, I will announce a type of pattern,
such as an ABC or AB pattern. Then, they must create this type of pattern using their materials
just like the video showed. My students will be able to create and learn different patterns through
this activity. Once we complete the basics, like patterns, we can move on to grouping, sorting,
adding, and subtracting. Using tangible objects will be beneficial for my students’ learning and
hopefully be a good way for them to see the process of these specific math concepts.

3.4 Knowledge of English/Language Arts/Literacy for learners with exceptionalities including

Teaching Child and Adolescent Literature
• Survey of children’s/adolescent literature, both literary and informational, from classics
to current titles
• Applies measures of text complexity to determine gradeband level of the text
• Practices writing text-based questions that are appropriate to grade-band level and align
to the grade-level standard(s)
• Develops writing (argumentative, informative/explanatory, and/or narrative) and/or
speaking (oral presentation, readers’ theater) activities based on the text that are
appropriate to grade level and reflect expectation of the standard(s)
• Censorship, public domain titles, digital resources
• Text types (genres)
o Bibliographies, annotations, abstracts and summaries
o Author’s purpose for language, style, and tone
o Illustrators, award-winning books

Teaching Integrated Language Arts and Disciplinary Literacy

• Understands concepts of reading, language, speaking/ listening, and writing, and how to
integrate them in model units/lesson with the purpose of building deep content
knowledge about a topic across a variety of disciplines
• Develops model lessons and authentic/relevant units across a variety of disciplines
• Finds teaching resources; evaluates, and synthesizes information across a variety of
disciplines
• Uses digital media for research and collaboration across a variety of disciplines
• Understands text complexity across a variety of disciplines
• Researches to build and present knowledge across a variety of disciplines

Narrative

This will be a more advance project for my students but hopefully very effective. I will
show this student’s example of a book trailer, over The Lightning Thief, as an example of what
each one of my students will create over a certain book. A book trailer is a great way for students
to summarize and display their knowledge of a completed book. First, my students will choose a
book to read depending on their individual reading level. Once they have completed their book,
they will each create their own book trailer to share with the class. This allows for creativity,
technology exposure, reading, and comprehending. Through these book trailers, my students will
be exposed to literature and get the opportunity to synthesize the information using digital media.
