Paper details
Teacher candidates should read at least five (5) journal articles and
one must be focused on the developmental stages of children K-6. The
other four (4) can be divided between topics of math and science or
include articles on the integration of the two subject areas such as:
• Developmental stages of children K-6
• Effective strategies for teaching elementary school math
• Effective strategies for teaching elementary school science
• Managing math manipulatives in the classroom
• Safety issues with science experiments in the classroom
• Gender issues with math and science in elementary school
• Math and/or science anxiety and fears with children
• Parents as partners in the math and science curriculum
• Successful integration of math and science in elementary school
Children in grades K-6 go through definitive developmental phases
which are individual in nature and may or may not occur at the same
rate for every child. It is important to understand these phases and
how they can affect student learning and readiness for certain subject
material. Activities and strategies can also be aligned with
developmental readiness. An elementary teacher must have a thorough
understanding of the developmental phases to create lessons
appropriate to the grade level assigned as well as have the ability to
adapt and adjust those lessons for individual needs.
After reading the articles teacher candidates will create a summary
page with key points from each article as well as the citation of the
articles.
