Science, Social Studies, and Math: Cross-Curricular Strategies

About This Session

Summary

High school equivalency tests cover several content areas and instructors rarely have time to teach all areas in a meaningful way. We need to be creative in how we teach language arts, math, social studies, and science.

What we'll cover:

One of the best ways to accomplish this is to use cross-content lessons that cover concepts that can be applied to more than one area.

In this session, I will use science as the main content area, but expand the teaching to cover math and social studies. We will focus on graphic literacy, measures of central tendency and statistics and discuss ways to make these concepts cross-curricular.

We will do some activities that you can take back to your classroom, including creating and analyzing graphs.
