Mandated Curriculum Vs. Developmentally Appropriate Practices

/in /by

Mandated Curriculum vs. Developmentally Appropriate Practices

You are a parent who is concerned about the new state-mandated, textbook-based curriculum for kindergarten, and you are writing a letter to the school board in protest of this new policy. In your letter, define DAP, describe the benefits of DAP, and explain why you feel the use of a textbook-based curriculum may be inappropriate. Describe potential negative effects of this curriculum and how it is developmentally inappropriate to literacy development. Recommend an alternative approach to developing literacy skills. In your letter, use the kindergarten standards from your state and the guidelines for DAP described in the course text as well as in NAEYC resources.

The paper should be two to three pages in addition to the title page and the reference page. Use at least one scholarly reference in addition to your text. Your paper should also be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

Carefully review the Grading Rubric (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.

A brief historical overview of some of the major educational policies that have shaped ELL instruction.

/in /by

For this benchmark, create an in-depth, 15-20 slide PowerPoint presentation to inform other teachers in your school district of the benefits of using the SIOP model as a teaching framework. This presentation should elaborate on the empirical research that shows the benefits of the SIOP framework when used with general education students as well as with ELLs. Your presentation should include:

  1. A brief historical overview of some of the major educational policies that have shaped ELL instruction.
  2. A brief description of socioeconomic, political, and legal influences on instruction for ELLs.
  3. The eight interrelated components of the SIOP model, their application, and a teaching example for each component. Include a benefit for each SIOP component regarding how it contributes to an engaging curriculum and learning experience. The eight SIOP components are as follows:
  4. Lesson Preparation
  5. Building Background
  6. Comprehensible Input
  7. Strategies
  8. Interaction
  9. Practice and Application
  10. Lesson Delivery
  11. Review and Assessment
  12. Make a case for the importance of engaging in ongoing learning regarding innovative ways to utilize SIOP in your teaching.
  13. Include considerations about meeting ELL needs, such as access to academic classes, appropriate resources, and instructional technology, while working collaboratively with other school professionals from the perspective of an advocating leader.

Include title slide, presenter’s notes, in-text citations, and a reference slide that contains 3-5 sources from the required readings or the GCU Library.

While GCU style format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected. For all assignment delivery options, documentation of sources should be presented using GCU formatting guidelines, which can be found in the GCU Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
