Thematic Units
A thematic unit is a unit of study based on a particular topic. It can be developed around a specific topic, such as peanuts , or a more general theme like vegetables . The general topics work well for younger students and the more specific ones for advanced students. Units should contain activities from all subject areas, utilize a variety of teaching methods, and be centered on hands-on learning. Teaching with thematic units is a great way to get your students excited about learning while making it authentic and useful.

DEFINITION AND RATIONALE
Lipson et al. (1993) trace the idea of curriculum integration to reforms of the 1930s specifically to John Dewey's 1933 discussion of meaningful learning. In the language arts the term "integration" usually refers not to content areas, but rather to recognizing the natural interrelationship of the four language skills. Accordingly, we may understand integration as two adjacent, linked teaching areas: first, the interrelated language arts themselves, then the further inclusion of other content areas within the already integrated language curriculum. The trend to combine these two approaches represents an interdisciplinary curriculum what Schubert (1993) calls "a true window on the world."

MIDDLE SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY AND ORGANIZATION AND THE FOREIGN LANGUAGE PROGRAM
INTERDISCIPLINARY UNITS AND THE FOREIGN LANGUAGE CURRICULUM
Interdisciplinary instruction is increasingly popular at the middle school level because of growing recognition that learning is improved when students are able to understand the underlying relationships that connect what they are taught from one class period to the next. When objectives and content can be integrated, it is likely that greater student learning will be attained. Among the strategies for integrating instruction in different disciplines are thematic units, curricular connections, and thinking skills development. Thematic Units. In this approach, the most common in middle schools today, all teachers on the team organize the content and skills of their discipline around a predetermined theme. Team-wide thematic units have caused concern for teachers who see certain themes as incongruent with the objectives of their discipline. This is particularly true in subjects such as mathematics and foreign languages, where teachers tend to view their objectives as sequential and hierarchical, with little flexibility about what should be taught and when. Nonetheless, many creative teachers are finding ways to contribute to thematic units.

The PCI Early Childhood Curriculum , developed by classroom teacher Brenda Burdine Thornton, includes a full year of active learning ideas and reproducible activities. The program is based on the idea that a curriculum should be designed to fit each child.
PCI Early Childhood Curriculum is comprised of 19 thematic units that integrate basic skills with extension activities. Each one to two week unit is taught using a structured daily routine that incorporates important beginning reading, writing, math, science, and social studies skills. Each unit book contains objectives, learning center activities, preparation tips, daily lesson plans, table and "ticket" activities, and reproducible paper and pencil activities.
