Are your students overwhelmed by the endless stream of digital information, unsure how to separate true facts from falsehoods and other types of media manipulation? With the rise of influencers, hyper-targeted algorithms, and an attention economy, media literacy as it was once traditionally defined is insufficient in the world of today. Your students will benefit from our Ultimate Media Literacy & Advertising Analysis Unit by gaining the critical thinking skills they'll need to make it in today's world. This thorough "turnkey" media literacy curriculum offers students an understanding of the psychological underpinnings of modern persuasion, going far beyond just an ability to identify "fake news." It uses proven theoretical concepts and real-world examples to give students tools for breaking down the actual media they consume each day. THIS PAGE CONTAINS OVER 50 PAGES OF VALUE! PHASE 1 CONTENT & THEORY: 4 Chapters full of valuable information about the major themes of the 21st century demonstrating the foundational knowledge needed to be an informed citizen on each of these themes, written in academic language but accessible to all. 1. The Attention Economy - (infinite scrolling, micro moment) 2. Psychological Exploitation - (Real vs Ideal self, FOMO, Parasitical relationships) 3. Semiotics: The Language Behind Language - (signifiers and signified, "greenwashing") 4. Algorithmic Targeting - (psychographics, echo chambers, microtargeting) PHASE 2 STUDENT WORKBOOK (10 RIGOROUS WORKSHEETS): Each worksheet has a modern and relevant case study for students to analyze using the following questions with a final creative application activity throughout each unit with regard to each of the case studies. - How do I deconstruct and identify possible target audiences? - How can I understand emotional and visual manipulation? - What is the role of algorithms and filter bubbles? - How do I identify logical fallacies in rhetoric? - What is native advertising and how does it work? - What is the economic value of social media influencers and how do I identify parasocial exploitation? - What is data harvesting and how does it contribute to surveillance capitalism? - What are dark patterns in user experience or user interface? - How do I manage a brand crisis? CAPSTONE PROJECT: Develop your own counter-narrative campaign! PHASE 3: Finish Teacher Materials – All the support materials you will need to teach this unit successfully! To provide visual frameworks for your students, you will receive three highly effective printable anchor charts or diagrams (Hyper-targeted advertising, The Disinformation Triangle and The SIFT Method) for students to use as visual scaffolds while they build their understanding. If you need a complete set of example answers for all ten of the worksheets, you will find a highly organized answer key that provides you with detailed exemplar responses to each of the ten worksheets. This resource will save you countless hours preparing for your classes. You will receive a comprehensive teacher implementation guide that provides a pedagogical overview along with a complete teacher 5-day pacing and lesson plan so that you can easily implement this complete unit successfully! While this isn't just a bundle of worksheets, it is a number of vital resources that will support students in developing digital citizenship, critical consumption and intellectual sovereignty. It is suitable for use in English, Media Studies, Social Studies and Business classes.

Parents and Schools Appreciate it Because: Real World Preparation - This unit looks at the digital world students live in today, provides students with critical thinking skills to evaluate the influencers, ads aimed at them, and social media platforms already used daily by students. Develops Deep Thinking Skills – This unit goes beyond the standard checklist used to identify "fake news" and teaches students about the psychological and economic constructs that allow manipulation of modern media. Relevant and Engaging Content – Lessons are told through modern examples such as the meal delivery subscription model, greenwashing by fast-fashion companies, and student-to-YouTuber relationships to make otherwise complex content relatable and interesting. Comprehensive and Teacher Friendly – This is a "turnkey" unit, including theory, 10 worksheets, graphic organizers, and an answer key, along with a 5-day lesson plan to allow educators to save dozens of hours of prep time. Target Student Audience : Based on the vocabulary, concepts and themes within the PDF document, it is targeted toward the following audiences: High School Students (Grades 9-12). The material is most relevant for high school students due to the fact that they are primarily marketed to by way of advertising and media tactics discussed. Complex vocabulary, including "semiotics," "psychographics" and "algorithmic panopticon"; may be challenging for some students but are age-appropriate. Early College/University Students (100 Level).

Square Root and Cube Root Mental Math Matching Game Estimating 8th 9th
Math, Algebra, Number Lines, Multiplication and Division, Grade 8, 9, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Here's a fun and hands-on way for your students to practice estimating square roots & cube roots using logical mental math strategies and known benchmarks. It's a simple matching game for students in 8th & 9th grade when they are learning about square roots & cube roots in math class. How to Use: Print a worksheet for each of your students along with a set of 24 matching cards for each group of two to four students. First, students need to complete their Square and Cube Roots Cheat Sheet. Give them time in class to do this in pairs or small groups. They should hold on to this sheet for the whole unit as it will be a useful resource. Let them practice estimating square and cube roots with the five practice questions. Go over mental math strategies as a class (use the answer key for ideas). When it’s time for the game, give groups of students one set of 24 cards. They need to shuffle the cards and match them up. They could do this several ways: Play as a memory matching game : spread cards facedown, flip 2 cards, see if they match, flip them back if they don’t. Play like Go Fish - ask the other players for certain cards. Or just spread all the cards out face-up, match up a pair, and explain why it’s a match . Grades to Use With: This game is designed to target 8th grade math learning outcomes about square roots, cube roots, mental math, and estimation. It could be used in 9th grade as a review activity. It could be used in high school special education classes where appropriate. What's Included: 6-Page PDF Ready to Print and Use! Teacher Instructions Square Root and Cube Root Cheat Sheet Answer Key for Square Root and Cube Root Cheat Sheet 3 pages (24 cards) for the Matching Game

Science Reading Comprehension Passage and Questions: Making Candy (Docs) This very engaging science reading passage is about how heat changes sugar syrup into different kinds of candy . It explains that candy making depends on temperature, water loss, and sugar concentration . As sugar syrup boils, water evaporates, the syrup becomes more concentrated, and different temperature ranges create different textures, such as thread, soft-ball, firm-ball, hard-ball, soft-crack, and hard-crack stages. It also explains how candy makers use molds, pulling, stretching, or cutting to shape the candy after heating. This passage is designed to bridge the gap between science and literacy through strengthening reading comprehension and sparking scientific curiosity in middle school students. The passage blends English Language Arts skills with accurate science content that supports NGSS classroom practice. Ideal for interdisciplinary learning in ELA and Science.
