• Use one card a day during morning time. Have students fill out a STEAM / STEM worksheet or discuss and use the Google Slides as a class.

• Use them for public speaking practice. Allow students to build and then show and tell with the class or their parents. They can discuss what they made, liked, what they would improve, and how it solved the problem on the task cards. They can practice speaking and listening skills, using loud and clear voices, and giving full attention to the speaker. Encourage students to ask questions to their classmates.

• Ideally the goal is to do one challenge a day, but you could certainly allow students to do more than one.

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

Why do I think you will love this product, and what makes my challenge set unique?

I love silly stories that bring humor and adventure to life for kids, but also that force them to use their imaginations in fun and exciting ways. This challenge task set does exactly that through the loose wacky stories where they are the main character. Silly scenarios, adventure and disaster, problem solving, and learning, are all part of the experience when building these challenges.

Most building challenge task cards are independent from each other. “Build a boat,” or “build an airplane,” are common themes among the cards. While those are fantastic, and we have done many of them ourselves, I wanted to do something different and more cohesive and engaging for kids.

The only rule is to HAVE FUN and allow those imaginations to soar!

**Please note that while the intent is for these to be independent, early readers may need some assistance in reading the cards.**

**This is not an editable document.**

Lately, upsetting things have been happening in the world and our students are very much aware of them. Tens of thousands of people have protested on the streets to make their voices heard about all kinds of issues that students care about including racism, inequality, policing, discrimination, etc. Protests have spread across the nation and seem to rival the historic demonstrations of the civil rights movement. It is important for us to bring these topics into our classrooms—because students want to be part of the conversation and share their thoughts and feelings about the very issues that affect them - including racism.

This resource features 48 questions related to racism that can be used as writing prompts, discussion/debate questions, or both! These questions encourage students to think deeply about racism, the root cause of it, their experiences with it, how it should be confronted and addressed, what drives silence, the role media plays - AND SO MUCH MORE! These questions can spark some deep conversations among students. Without a doubt, these questions give students an opportunity to share their feelings and thoughts about the racism they have witnessed in their lives.

These Racism Writing or Discussion Prompts would make an AMAZING supplement to any lesson and can be used in a variety of ways.

The Break Down:

✅ 48 Racism Writing/Discussion Question TASK CARDS

These Racism Writing/Discussion Question Task Cards can be used as part of a larger lesson, in guided small groups, whole-class discussions, partner discussion before sharing out with the larger group or class, or even one-on-one with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian! You can print the Task Cards out on gloss paper or regular paper and laminate. You may also organize them in a binder ring.

✅ 48 Racism Writing/Discussion Question Worksheets

This resource also includes 48 Racism Writing/Discussion WORKSHEETS with lines, so students can write their responses. Each worksheet contains a question related to racism (the same questions in the Task Cards). It's a great opportunity for students to reflect about their own perspectives of racism and share their feelings about them.

⭐ These Worksheets are included in PDF and GOOGLE SLIDES versions! Text boxes have already been added to make it easier for you and your students!

⭐ These worksheets are great for “Quick Writes,” Do Now activities, Note-Taking/Reflection periods, Formative Assessments, or can simply be used as part of a larger lesson or discussion!

✅ 48 Racism Writing/Discussion Question Strips

These question strips are beautifully created and feature the same questions in the Task Cards and Worksheets. They can be cut and distributed to students. You can distribute one or two question strips to each student to think about, share their thinking and perspectives with a partner, or have them randomly choose a strip to answer, etc.

✅ LIST of Racism Questions
Also included is a 3-page LIST of RACISM QUESTIONS to allow easier access for teachers to read and select questions to work with. It’s like an overview page of the questions listed in the Task Cards, Worksheets, and Strips.

Lesson plans are not included. These Racism Writing/Discussion Question Task Cards and Worksheets can be used as a resource with your own lesson plans and in such a way that best meets the needs of your students.

Grammar on the Go! 8th Grade tells the story of a typical student’s school experience from the first day of eighth grade until the day before summer vacation. Along the way, the student makes new friends, finds new interests, and battles with homework, PE, lockers, and other dilemmas faced by middle school students. The story is a fun look at middle school, told from the perspective of an 8th grader. This is Unit 3 of 10 Units.

The slide shows and worksheets allow students to practice and develop their proofreading and conventions skills.

Looking for a way to have some fun while learning music? Look no further. This Graphic Scores Unit will have your students exploring how to represent sound using graphics and composing in no time! There are 3 main lessons included in this unit, however, the last lesson will likely take 6-8 lessons to put together and perform. This unit is one I have used with my own students so I know how much fun they have with it! The great thing with graphic scores is you don't really need any instruments to compose which makes this unit even better if you're teaching music on a cart or have limited resources available.

Overview:

This graphic score short unit exposes students to what a graphic score is. They get to represent sound using graphics and compose their own graphic score using found sounds. Students will learn how sound and music can be represented using graphics. They will practice representing a short piece of music through graphics. After, they will represent common soundscapes using their own graphics and will then create their own graphic score to perform. I created this in Google Docs/Slides so that you can customize this unit to your own unique needs.

Learning Goals:

• We are learning how to represent sounds and music using non-traditional notation.
• We are learning to compose a piece of music using found sounds and represent our sound using graphics.

Success Criteria:

• I can represent sound using graphics.
• I can compose a piece of music with a group and perform it using my score.

What’s Included:

• Lesson Plans and Ideas
• Google Slides Lesson on Graphic Scores (including original composition to practice creating graphic scores)
• Graphic organizer for students with fill in the blanks about graphic scores
• Graphic organizer for students to represent original composition as a graphic score
• Graphic organizer for students to represent soundscapes using graphics
• Graphic score for students to create their own graphic scores
• Rubrics to mark graphic score assignments
• 3 Stars and a Wish for peer feedback

2 "mini" labs that will help students observe and make connections to compounds and mixtures. The first introduces students to the concept of mixtures. The second shows the concept that not all liquids act alike so conclusions can be drawn about how materials interact when put together.

These short activities reinforce or introduce concepts to students. I call these activities “mini labs” because they are simple activities that do not take the whole class period. They are also activities that are safe for use in the classroom and do not have to be done in a lab or with any specialty equipment or materials. I often use these demonstrations to lead into new content, that way as we cover material I can refer back to the things that my students have experienced first hand.
