Less than $5 8th Grade End of Year Projects (by date, oldest first)

Integrated research and project based learning for Middle and High School

Your students will love forming a question and seeing where it takes them. This is SUPER FUN LEARNING that will keep engagement high for the middle or end of the semester.

You will love that that everything is set up for you to monitor students while they research and create.

Memories from the Year (video project) gives students an opportunity to share their memories from the school year as a culminating activity to the year. It uses the Web 2.0 tool, WeVideo, which is convenient for teachers and students since it does not require download. Students use existing pictures and videos or shoot additional ones and then combine those with WeVideo’s built in music to create a video retrospective of the year. The project was created for 7th and 8th graders but could easily be adapted to use with upper elementary through early high school.

This lesson is great for distance learning/remote learning. You can upload it to your school's learning management system (Google Classroom, Edmodo, Canvas, etc.) or share with students via Google Drive.
