 hundred pre-service teachers and Ten (10) Lecturers of Integrated Science were drawn using stratified sampling technique. Scores of 2014/15 Integrated Science Students teacher on Micro teaching and Teaching Practices as well as a structured interview conducted on integrated Science Lecturers constituted the instrument used. The means and standard deviation was calculated while the students’ scores are analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation coefficient to determine the significant level at .05. The results showed that there is a positive significant relationship between the scores in the two exercises. The researcher recommend among other things that: adequate arrangement is required in the Planning of the two exercises; more attention needs to be paid to the students lesson delivery particularly during Micro teaching; the feedback for the students should be given immediately as corrective measure and all the necessary teaching materials like video recorder should be made available for use in all the institutions.&picture=http://www.aascit.org/aascit/decorators/img/journal/910.jpg)
