Both Mike Wiley and <br /> Li Liu provide instructional materials to correspond with their performances. Each teacher is <br /> responsible for integrating these materials and the performances with the curriculum in each <br /> classroom. These linkages would most often take place on a grade-wide scale, with teachers of <br /> the same grade using the same lesson, which would be reinforced during relevant`specials' <br /> classes(e.g., art, music, library). <br /> Page 6 of 21 <br />
