Abstract:
This curriculum was created using the Indiana Curriculum Guides in all of the subject areas and the book, ITI: The Model, by Susan Kovalik, and the textbooks that are currently being used in the Metropolitan School District of Lawrence Township. I have attempted to select themes for the entire year and list the key points or main ideas that the children should learn through their study of that theme. I have also included a brief explanation of what specific topics will be covered during each of the themes. Finally, I have fully developed one of the components, "I Care ... about pets." For this particular theme, I have included various activities for each of the main subject areas and a list of specific skills that will be emphasized during this particular theme.
