Learn to Program Scratch- Task Cards LEVEL 3
By Howlin' Husky Math Games
Do you have an extra day when you'd love to take the entire class on an adventure of fun and excitement? Maybe you have a group of lightning-fast learners who breeze through assignments in no time. Giving them more of the same problems they've already mastered would be a wasted opportunity. So why not shake things up? How about introducing them to a thrilling world of discovery, with absolutely NO EXTRA WORK for you?
Programming!
Introducing "Learn to Program Scratch" task cards! (This is LEVEL 3 of the series) These cards bring to life Scratch, a visually captivating computer programming language created by none other than MIT. Every student should have a taste of programming, and as math teachers, we hold the key to open this amazing door. Computer programming is the ultimate fusion of math and logic, and brace yourself... it's also fun!
Prepare to witness a spark of interest in your students! For many of them, the vast world of coding remains an enigma, with no clue where to begin. And let's face it, not all schools offer a comprehensive computer science curriculum. But fear not! These task cards act as a stepping stone, paving the way for their journey into the realms of Java, Python, JavaScript, C#, and more!
Hold on tight, because here's what's packed inside this treasure trove:
Rock, Paper, Scissors
Dodge Ball
Jumping Game
Whack-A-Mole
*** Pro tip: Printing the cards on thicker paper (cardstock) and laminating them not only elevates their durability but ensures they withstand the test of time, unleashing countless moments of wonder and discovery!

The Culture of the Roaring 20's - Research & Presentation Project in eMaze
By Innovations in Technology
This unit connects learning with technology to Social Studies. This is perfect for technology class or for use in a Social Studies or History classroom that wants to incorporate technology with a lesson. No download is required to use eMaze (www.emaze.com) - a free product, making it easy for teachers who are not able to download software on classroom computers to still give their students a choice in learning.
In this lesson, students are provided with a quick tutorial, as well as links to other resources to help them with their project. The tutorial is intended to help students get started with the program and then use the resources within the program to refine their creations. Students create a presentation about their choice of one of several topics about the culture of the Roaring 20’s after researching them. They use that information along with graphics, pictures and background to create a finished presentation that explains how their topic influenced society then and now, and also add their own opinions and insights to it.
This is an excellent creative project to add to a unit on American History or the 1920’s. This project was created for grades 7-8 but could easily be used with upper elementary or high school students.
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.

Evolution of Railroads - Research and Timeline Project | Distance Learning
By Innovations in Technology
This unit connects learning with technology to Social Studies. This is perfect for technology class or for use in a Social Studies or History classroom that wants to incorporate technology with a lesson. No download is required to use Tiki-Toki (www.tiki-toki.com) - a free product, making it easy for teachers who are not able to download software on classroom computers to still give their students a choice in learning.
In this lesson, students are provided with a quick tutorial, as well as links to other resources to help them with their project. The tutorial is intended to help students get started with the program and then use the resources within the program to refine their creations. Students create a timeline about the evolution of railroads after researching them. They use that information along with graphics, pictures and backgrounds from the Internet and also supplied in Tiki-Toki, to create a finished presentation that explains the history of railroads and how they evolved, and add their own opinions and insights to the project.
This is an excellent creative project to add to a unit on railroads, the Industrial Revolution, or other social studies lessons on the growth and development of the United States. The project was created for grades 7-8 but could easily be used with upper elementary or high school students.
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.
Files Included with this Lesson
• Teacher & Student Notes and Resources
