It's a dynamic and captivating lesson. It includes a light-hearted skit, where students, and optionally the teacher, illustrate the pitfalls of bartering. Following the skit, the spotlight shifts to understanding the essence of money and its significance. With hands-on demonstrations, students get a chance to actively participate, ensuring they remain engrossed and involved throughout the session. What is included? -The Goat Farmer and Chicken Farmer skit (props not included :-) -a power point that will define money and the challenges of a barter economy -a Federal Reserve bank publication titled: "MONEY", this is a must have resource when teaching about money!

The Constitution is A Living Document: A Project to Assess Knowledge and Understanding
Social Studies, Government, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Projects, Activities
The most important thing about this project, The Consitution is a Living Document, is how students truly internalize how the Constitution is not just some old stuffy document but really is alive in our lives and protects our rights and our democracy. I have had students come back to me when they are in high school to tell me how much they got out of this project. I have also had several students tell me they helped their immigrant parents pass the citizenship test. They were able to teach their parents about our government. My favorite is how many 8th-grade students tell me they are now interested in current events and regularly follow the news! The purpose of this project, The Consitution is a Living Document, is to assess students’ knowledge and understanding of the Constitution. The project is divided into 3 sections. The first section focuses on the Constitution, particularly Articles 1, 2, and 3. They will write an essay and then read 3 news articles that connect to each of these articles. They will summarize the articles and analyze how this news event connects to each of these articles. In Section 2, students will write an essay on the Bill of Rights and Amendments and read 7 more current events news articles, summarize them, and then analyze how each event connects to a specific amendment. The third section includes a Conclusion essay in which they reflect back on what they learned about themselves, doing a project of this magnitude, and about the Constitution,and a Bibliography. This is a comprehensive project and will take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks. For each section, I provide lesson plans with objectives and learning targets aligned with the Common Core Standards. teacher directions, student directions, handouts, graphic organizers, check-off sheets, and rubrics. This project could be easily modified to fit a shorter time frame. With modifications, it is appropriate for students in 6th through 12th grades. This project is part of my unit: “Our Living Consitution” which is designed using the Into, Through, and Beyond model of lesson planning. This project can be taught independently, but it is an excellent summative assessment for all my lessons on the Constitution in my unit. The lessons in the Constitution unit can be used independently or as a supplement to what you already teach or as a whole. Here is a summary of what is in the unit: Into Lessons: Creating Schema Lesson 1: Overview of the Constitution of the United States of America Slideshow and Notetaker Lesson 2: Origins of the Constitution Essential Terms and Notetaker Lesson 3: The Seven Principles of the Constitution Through Lessons: Learning the Content Lesson 4: The Goals of the Preamble, which includes a Preamble Project Lesson 5: The Three Branches of Government: Articles 1, 2, and 3 Lesson 6: How a Bill Becomes a Law and Project Lesson 7: Federalism and the System of Checks and Balances Lesson 8: Articles 4-7 Lesson 9: The Bill of Rights Unit (and a Little About Amendments 11-27) Extras (from the Unit: Every Four Years… The Presidential Election) Lesson 10: What Are Your Political Viewpoints? Lesson 11: Major and Minor Political Parties Lesson 12: A Brief History of Who Can Vote Lesson 13: Nuts and Bolts of the Presidential Election Beyond Lessons: Summative Assessments Study Guides and Tests are included, with many of the lessons Two Comprehensive Projects to Assess Knowledge and Understanding: --The Constitution is a Living Document Project --The Bill of Rights Explained Project

FULL CATALOG OF DOWNLOAD LINKS AND ENCYCLOPEDIA INDEX HERE Lesson Snapshot Title: Pianos Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Music (Performing Arts) / Reading Informational Text Primary Topic: How the piano was invented and improved Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): S What This Lesson Teaches Best How the piano idea began around 1700 in Florence, Italy , with Bartolomeo Cristofori trying to make music “gentle or bold” depending on touch. How the piano’s key action works: a mechanism sends a leather-covered hammer to strike strings, then pulls back so the string keeps vibrating . How dampers stop strings from ringing—and lifting them lets tones ring longer. How information spread the invention: Scipione Maffei published an article with a diagram , leading builders like Gottfried Silbermann to make pianos based on Cristofori’s design. How the piano grew for bigger spaces: sturdier builds and a wider range from about four octaves to 88 keys , changing where music could be played (homes, schools, apartments, stages). Learning Goals Students will explain why Cristofori began tinkering with a new keyboard instrument around 1700. Students will describe how a key triggers the hammer-and-string action using details from the passage. Students will explain how a player’s touch can make the sound softer or louder according to the text. Students will identify how Maffei helped the piano idea travel and name one builder mentioned who made pianos afterward. Students will describe how the piano’s keyboard range changed over time and state the number of keys many pianos have today. Key Vocabulary From the Text harpsichords — older keyboards that stayed mostly one volume. inventory — a recorded list that showed a piano existed. mechanism — moving parts that make the piano action work. dampers — parts that stop strings from ringing. octaves — groups of notes used to describe keyboard range. Cored Ed Encyclopedia Overview The Cored Ed Encyclopedia is a weekly series of lessons that you can pick up and use right away. These short readings fit into whatever time you have available. Each one includes a warm-up, a reading, and a set of questions, but it’s flexible — you can do just the reading, the full lesson, or skip the writing section if you need to. Each lesson focuses on a single topic so students don’t get lost. The writing is clear but never childish, making it perfect for grades two through five. Topics range from animals and science to history, inventions, and everyday things. No matter the level of the student, everyone should take away at least one new idea or fact from each lesson. The materials are easy to print, easy to explain, and require no setup. They work well for whole-class teaching, partner work, or independent study.

Sight Words Fluency Learning Game | Fry's 1st 100 Words
ELA, Language Development, Spelling, Preschool, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, 3, Activities, Games
Sight Words Fluency Game for Kindergarten through Grade 3 This sight words learning game helps build reading fluency with Fry's first 100 high frequency words. Students race to identify and "swat" the sight words called out by the teacher. The game can be played whole group or in small groups. Print the words on cardstock, laminate for durability, and cut apart to make game pieces. Provide each student with a fly swatter. The teacher calls out a sight word and students race to find and cover the matching word with their swatter. The first student to identify and swat the correct word wins the card. For more of a challenge, cover the swatters with an additional piece of laminated cardstock. Attach with packing tape or glue. The cover forces students to visually focus when searching for the called out word. Play the basic game without velcro for a quicker pace. Or add velcro dots to the word cards and fly swatters so the card sticks when swatted for easier scoring. Adjust the difficulty by calling out simple CVC words or longer words from Fry's list. This printable sight word game offers a fun and interactive way to build fluency with the first 100 essential words. It's perfect for whole group, small group, or independent practice in grades K-3.

ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Kindergarten, Preschool, Activities
Letter P Playdough Mats These printable letter P playdough mats allow preschoolers and kindergartners to build fine motor skills while learning the beginning letter sound of words associated with pizza, pumpkin, pie, penguin, pig, and pickle images. Students use playdough to recreate the P objects on laminated mats that can be reused. Teachers can implement this no-prep activity during centers or small groups to assess shape and color matching, letter recognition, and phonics skills. Fine motor muscles are built through the tactile motions of rolling, pressing, and shaping playdough. Associating beginning letter sounds happens by verbally labeling creations and images that start with the letter P sound. Print, laminate, and add playdough to sets of the mats for an engaging, hands-on activity that develops key readiness skills.
