An Interdisciplinary, Teaming Approach to History and English Instruction at the Secondary Level

Abstract

The relationship of integrating history and English objectives to enhance student achievement was studied. A model curriculum has been developed to connect U.S. History and American Literature content. Research has been obtained that indicates improved student learning when subjects are integrated in a relevant fashion. Secondary schools using interdisciplinary curriculum are showing improved GPA\u27s, attendance and standardized test scores. Secondary teachers must align their daily lesson plans and assessments with the state essential learning\u27s in both the history and language arts area
