Do you need some new ideas for your 6th grade math unit to meet the Common Core State Standards for Geometry? Here is a ready-to-go bundle with five fun real-life activities to incorporate into your unit plan. 1) Area of Triangles, Parallelograms, and Trapezoids: This JIGSAW activity allows your students to become experts at determining the area of one kind of shape. Then, using the Jigsaw instructional strategy, groups of three experts teach each other all of the formulas. 2) 5 Stations for Area, Perimeter, and Volume of Right-Angle Shapes: These fun stations allow students to plan a backyard, solve word problems, measure a box, and work with compound shapes! 3) Design a Logo: Students use their knowledge of plotting ordered pairs to draw several polygons on a Cartesian plane to reveal a logo. Then they get to design their own and trade their coordinates with a friend! 4) Paint a Doghouse: Students use organized tables and grid paper to carefully calculate the surface area of a doghouse to determine how much paint they would need to spruce it up. A great real world application! 5) I have included another bonus inquiry activity : Students investigate the relationship between area and perimeter to see if they can find a predictable trend. Grades to Use With: This bundle is designed for students in Grade 6, but can be used for Grade 5 enrichment, Grade 7 or 8 review, or high school special education classes.

The Southern Colonies in North America, a classroom skit
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities
This play complements the other plays I have on TeachSimple about the colonial era in American History. You can also find the Life in the Middle Colonies and Life in the New England Colonies plays here. My 7th graders have enjoyed these for years. However, these work well for all grades between 6th and 12th. History comes alive in the classroom when students are using plays and skits. Reader's Theater is a great way to enhance any lesson, including the southern colonies, either to introduce some of the characteristics of this region or reinforce what you have been teaching. There are four roles in this play. It will take about 15-20 minutes to complete. Although the play was created by me it is based on an actual historical figure of that time - Henry Middleton and the Middleton family. The Middleton Plantation still exists in the Charleston area in South Carolina. The gardens he started are still there. All of my skits are written to engage students and get them thinking. This is what I call a "lesson enhancer". It will help add to any lesson on life in the southern English provinces.

Harness your students’ competitive sides as they play this deceptively simple dice game that lets them practice calculating the perimeter of complex shapes. Each duo will end up creating a unique complex shape as they race to be the one to finish it first using their rolls. Students can also calculate the area of their personal shape for extra math practice. A sample round is included to teach the game to your students! Instructions: 1) Player 1 chooses a starting spot, rolls, and draws a line that length (no diagonals). 2) Player 2 starts at the end of Player 1’s line, rolls, and draws a line that length. 3) Once the perimeter is over 40 units, the first player to close the shape wins! 4) If you can’t close it with the rolls you get, it is a tie. 5) BONUS: Calculate the area of your completed complex shape (close it yourself if the rolls did not complete it). Grades to Use With: This game works well for students in grades 3-7. Depending on where you live it may meet these standards: CCSS 3.MD.C.5 Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand concepts of area measurement. CCSS 3.MD.D.8 Solve real world and mathematical problems involving perimeters of polygons, including finding the perimeter given the side lengths, finding an unknown side length, and exhibiting rectangles with the same perimeter and different areas or with the same area and different perimeters.
