Teaching tips & learning objectives

Teaching tips

  • Post only the strand divider and the statements for the unit in progress; the region headers for Latin America, Canada, Europe and Australia mark where to cut the set apart.

  • Keep the code visible beside the wording — SS6G7a next to "I can locate on a world or regional political-physical map the following geographic features of Europe" — so the same sentence can be reused verbatim on a study guide or exit ticket.

  • Check for repeats before laminating: the Mexico City air pollution statement SS6G2a is printed on two consecutive sheets, and the mixed-economy statement SS6E1b appears once in general wording and once with reference to Latin America.

  • The SS6E13 personal finance cards sit at the very end and can be posted on their own, independently of the four regional units.

  • Several codes are mistyped on the cards (SS6CH6a, SS6CH6c and SS6CH7a where the civics prefix is otherwise SS6CG; SS6H11a and SS6H12a on geography statements), so correct them by hand if students copy codes onto their notes.

Skills covered

  • Objective posting — teachers display the day's Georgia standard in student wording, each card pairing a code such as SS6CG5a with its full "I can" sentence.

  • Unit sequencing — region and strand dividers let a teacher lay the set out in course order across Latin America, Canada, Europe and Australia.

  • Standards-to-student translation — every SS6 code is restated in the first person, from "I can describe Quebec's independence movement" to "I can describe the role of entrepreneurship."

  • Personal finance goal display — the closing SS6E13 cards put income, budgeting, saving and credit goals in the same student wording as the regional units.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Which regions and strands does the set cover?

Latin America and Canada come first, then Europe, then Australia, and each region carries statements from the Geographic, Historical, Government and Civic, and Economic Understandings strands. The title card also names the Caribbean alongside the four regions.

Do the cards show the standards codes as well as the student wording?

Both appear. Each card leads with the code — SS6H1a, SS6G7b, SS6CG5a, SS6E9d — and prints the matching "I can" sentence directly beneath it.

Does the set go beyond the regional units?

Yes — the final sheets carry the SS6E13 personal finance strand, with statements on living within one's income, on a budget as a planning tool, on the reasons for saving, and on the use of credit.
