TYPE OF ACTIVITY: GROUP COOPERATION
This lesson makes what could be a boring topic to students very interesting, fun, and interactive! Who doesn't like red balloons?

PREPARATION:
o Divide the classroom into groups of two. I encourage two to cover as many of the terms as possible. If you wish to have more terms covered, you may have each student complete one assignment.
o Your school may own a helium tank or have the school purchase it. May be cheaper to go to Walmart, Dollar Tree, or another store to purchase these balloons if the school cannot cover the cost of a tank. You may also consider having other teachers who would like to use this idea go in together to purchase it. PTA is sometimes willing to purchase these items. Places like Michael’s or Joann’s provide coupons to purchase items 40-50% off. Provide one balloon per group. (You may or the school may purchase a party helium balloon.)
Alternative to helium balloons: If you are unable to obtain red helium balloons, a reproducible balloon is provided in this lesson. Have the students color the balloon red, or reproduce it on red paper. You will be able to staple the ribbon to the balloon and students can still complete this activity.

Need a great lesson to review or introduce world religions to your students that they will enjoy? Get students up, moving, and learning!
This lesson addresses the following religions:
It also addresses concepts such as:
Students will work in cooperative groups and will rotate from one station to the next exploring the different aspects of world religions.
As an introductory activity, it would be helpful to have books available at each station or Internet access, so that students have an outlet to research the question posed.
As a review activity, simply have students rotate from one station to the other answering the review questions.
This allows students to collaborate to discuss and come to a conclusion on the answer. Students will not be left on their own but will have the opportunity to learn from their classmates. This lesson also incorporates movement in the classroom rather than asking them to remain in their seats for the hour-long or more class period.

Geography & Government Types: Hitler's Olympics of 1936 (Includes PowerPoint)
By Geography & Math Made Easy
Following World War I, Germany was in economic, political, and physical ruins. In 1933, Adolf Hitler became Chancellor and began his quiet quest against anyone who was not Arian. In 1931, Germany was given the option of hosting the 1936 Olympics. Hilter, under his Nazi German totalitarian dictatorship government system, wasn't sure it was a good idea until he was convinced that they could build the largest stadium to be seen at the Olympics and make Germany look as if it was not in ruin. He agreed! The 1936 Olympics were different from the Olympics in the past. It incorporated theatre, high-tech equipment for the games, and wonderful production with a lot of rituals that would continue into the Olympic games after Hitler's Olympics.
Hitler kept the secret of his war against the Jews throughout the two weeks of the 1936 Olympics using propaganda to show the world how well Germany was doing; the world, however, had no idea whatwas in store for Germany and the Jews who lived within its borders.

Geography: Battleship: Latitude & Longitude (Absolute Location) Map Skills
By Geography & Math Made Easy
This lesson is easy enough for 5th graders to understand yet works well with students up to grade 12. Modifications can be made as needed.
Are you tired of the repetitive worksheets and workbooks that promise to teach your students how to read absolute location (latitude and longitude)? Try out the Battleship: Latitude & Longitude game. This introductory lesson involves a game that will not only encourage students to learn how to read coordinates, but they will have a blast doing it as they sink ships for points. I have used this activity in my 7th-grade geography, class but this activity is great for all learning levels. Please note, this is a class activity that the entire class will play together.
Students will work in cooperative teams (class is split into team 1 and team 2) and will work cooperatively within the teams to identify the location of ships throughout the world, using the deduction method.
Students will walk away from this lesson having a better understanding of how to accurately read latitude and longitude.
Teachers, feel free to modify this lesson to meet your students' needs.
Note: This will come in a zip file. Please print all three files. I am not clear on why it created 3 files instead of one, but all components needed are included within one of the three files.
