This supervised clinical practice experience provides the intern candidate support in their final semester and continues to provide the opportunity to establish connections among course content, theories of teaching and learning, and classroom pedagogy. Interns will develop skills in planning daily standards-based lessons, implementing the elementary curriculum, engaging and supporting all students in learning, using educational technology, assessing student learning, and developing as a professional educator. Candidates plan lessons that provide access to the curriculum for all students and use a range of instructional strategies to tailor and adapt instruction as necessary to meet individual student needs. There is consistent focus on implementing positive behavioral support strategies with students and developing general pedagogical skills such as planning and teaching effective, meaningful, engaging lessons in all subjects, as well as integrated and designated English language development (ELD). Interns are provided formative feedback on supervised teaching and other examples of appropriate supervision activities (co-planning, assessment reflection, PLCs) from their on-site support provider and university supervisor to help them move toward mastery of the California Teaching Performance Expectations (TPEs).
