Welcome back to the Teaching with Valor Podcast, where we explore impactful strategies to elevate your teaching practice. I’m your host, Don Fessenden, and today’s episode is all about one of the most dynamic and engaging approaches to teaching—Creating Thematic Units.
We’ll explore how this strategy works across elementary, middle, and high school levels, delve into the benefits and challenges, and share some powerful examples to inspire your classroom. Stick around for two additional segments on how to integrate thematic units with other educational approaches and how to assess student learning within these frameworks.
Plus, we’ll cap things off with a special bonus segment answering a parent question related to thematic units.
