Syllabus Overview |
Nathan Hale's Tenth Grade
Integrated Studies program is a year-long course of
integrated study in Biology, Social Studies and Language Arts that
revolves around the central question of the year, "How can we be the
change we want to see in the world?" The team consists of teachers in
Biology, Language Arts and
Social Studies, working with an instructional assistant, a
consulting IEP teacher, a bilingual education teacher, and a counselor.
Students complete rigorous curriculum in all three subjects, finishing
each unit with a series of major projects that include mock trial,
extensive research and writing, topical magazine production, assorted
performances and demonstrations, art, website and video production,
literature, history and science. The program's central teaching values
include inclusion, integration, personalization and collaboration.
Curriculum is targeted at an honors level, with focus classes available
to IEP students. Students are expected to strive for a high
level of responsible scholarship, creativity and achievement. .
