This strategy of teachers from each core content area and fine arts planning together to integrate concepts is an example of what type of instruction?

• A. Cross-curricular instruction.
• B. Siloed instruction.
• C. Remedial instruction.
• D. Technology-assisted instruction.

Answer: (A)

Cross-curricular instruction happens when teachers from different subject areas plan together to weave concepts across disciplines. By aligning goals and designing integrated projects, students see how ideas connect—math, science, language arts, and the arts can reinforce one another in meaningful ways. This collaborative planning helps students transfer skills, recognize patterns across contexts, and stay engaged because learning feels coherent rather than fragmented.

Siloed instruction, by contrast, keeps subjects separate and planned in isolation, which makes it harder for students to see connections. Remedial instruction focuses on addressing specific gaps or deficits, not on integrating content areas. Technology-assisted instruction centers on using digital tools to deliver content, which may or may not involve cross-disciplinary integration.
