Engaging Stations Professional Development (Canva Copy Link)

As educators, we shifted away from incorporating hands-on resources in the classroom during the onset of COVID-19. Utilizing hands-on materials provides students with a tactile and experiential approach, offering a tangible way for learners to connect with abstract concepts and enhance understanding. Through hands-on engagement, such as manipulating objects or participating in interactive activities, students can more readily comprehend intricate ideas and improve information retention. It's now opportune to revisit and rediscover the hands-on resources available for classroom use or those that may have been overlooked.

Each slide features the corresponding Ron Clark rule accompanied by a relevant picture. The editable slides allow customization to align with your school's preferences, including the option to replace pictures with images of your students exemplifying the rule.

Within a specified time frame, teachers will research the topic, create presentations, and present in front of judges, fostering a dynamic and collaborative learning environment. Similar to the show "Top Chef," this format encourages teachers to learn from each other, gaining insights into diverse strategies for classroom implementation.

In this lesson, students will gain a frame of reference for understanding how multiple factors can influence how history is written. This resource will prompt students to be able to answer not only “What happened?” BUT-- “How do you know?” and “Why do you believe your interpretation is valid?”

Critical questions are posed;

• What kind of factors can influence how history is written?
• What is a primary source? What is a secondary source? Strengths and limitations of each?
• Does one's analysis of recent historical events differ from distant past events?

Students will explore these important questions through the study of Christopher Columbus. Through the analysis of primary & secondary sources, students will re-examine the way in which the Columbus story has been portrayed in mainstream literature. A culminating Venn diagram activity will complete the lesson.

Two Optional Extension activities include;

#1. Analyze Excerpts from Children's books; Identify the different possible ways in which the following images and/or text can influence a reader’s understanding of Christopher Columbus and the Taino culture.

#2. Debate: Should Columbus Day be Celebrated?; FOR & AGAINST arguments included.

This Resource Includes:

• Teacher Reference Guide
• 34 Google Slide Presentation & Guided Notes
• Two Optional Extension Activities: 1# Analyzing Children's Literature, #2 Debate- Should Columbus Debate continue to be celebrated?

*******************************

This "All About Me" resource goes beyond the "What is your favorite color?" "Who is your best friend?" "How many siblings do you have?", etc. Instead, this resource includes questions that gives you access into your students' minds and develop an understanding of what their thinking is like, what their deepest thoughts are, how they feel about themselves, what makes them happy, what makes them sad, how they view and feel about themselves, something they often question about life, what keeps them up at night, etc.

These worksheets ask more higher level reflection questions that they have probably never considered like: "How do I view myself?" "What do I need to change about myself?" "What are my fears are?" "Do I love myself? Why or why not?" and "Something I wish I could have done differently" - type questions.

Yes, there are very few basic questions (as I considered lower-level students when creating these worksheets), but most questions are intended to capture students' inner thoughts and feelings about life and about themselves - the "REAL" them. This resource provides an opportunity for you to really know WHO THEY ARE!

⭐ The graphics, fonts, and borders in these worksheets are so visually appealing, your students will love them!

⭐ This resource is also included in Google Slides! Text boxes have already been created to make it easier for you and your students! Each slide includes two instruction solution tabs for when students accidentally delete text boxes and when they want to zoom in (to enlarge worksheets). It's super helpful for students who are not that familiar with how to use Google Slides or need the extra assistance.

This Algebra 2 Back to School Mystery Picture is the perfect way to celebrate back to school! Students will factor 16 polynomials using Difference of Square, Greatest Common Factor and when a = 1, find the answer on the grid and hand draw the image they see in the box onto the grid! In the end they will have a hand drawn Back to School picture which would make a great bulletin board!

I love this activity because:

- you can celebrate coming back to school

- review Algebra 1 factoring (which is a major topic in Algebra 2)

- it will take the whole period and allow students to express their drawing skills

* Drawing is also super relaxing so the class environment will most likely be pretty calm, which we all love :) *

Check out the preview to see the full product!

- 2 Pages Factoring Polynomials

- Grid with Answers

- Answer Key

Topics included:
