5. Task 4- Mathematics assessment
Those of you student teaching in Fall, 2014 are exempt from Task 4

6. In this course… for edTPA
Complete a context for learning (describe school and classroom)
Choose a central focus (literacy skill) that typically gets taught in the early fall (September) and a content (Science or Social Studies) that can be taught at the same time – the goal is to do a project that you can use part or all of in the fall !
Literacy = reading or writing skills
This course- outline a 10 lesson unit on the same content (Science or Social Studies)
Write 3 detailed lessons around the central literacy focus

7. During student teaching…
You will pick a new central focus (literacy skill) and complete Tasks 1, 2, and 3 around that central focus

8. Guidelines
We will do this in parts… all the parts are in the template.
During this semester you will get feedback and support
During student teaching you cannot receive “detailed” feedback on your edTPA project
