Help your middle schoolers dive deep into the complexities of climate change with this engaging and thought-provoking resource!

"Climate Change: Five Perspectives" goes beyond basic facts, encouraging students to analyze diverse viewpoints and develop their critical thinking skills.

This comprehensive resource includes:

• Five compelling letters, each written to the United: Each letter presents a unique perspective on climate change, written from the point of view of:

  • The Urgent Activist
  • The Cautious Skeptic
  • The Technological Optimist
  • The Economic Pragmatist
  • The Frontline Youth (a student living in Kiribati)

• A companion AI video where the five letters are read aloud by their authors.

• 12 Engaging Assignments: Designed to spark critical thinking and enhance literacy skills, these activities encourage students to:

  • Analyze author's craft, purpose, and structure.
  • Synthesize information and evaluate evidence.
  • Compare and contrast perspectives.
  • Develop their own informed opinions.

• Alignment with Curriculum: This resource integrates with many Grade 6 literacy outcomes and climate change units. It was paritcularly aimed at the Alberta curriciulum.

Why This Resource Stands Out:

• Promotes Critical Thinking: Students learn to analyze different viewpoints, evaluate evidence, and form their own conclusions.
• Encourages Empathy and Global Awareness: By exploring diverse perspectives, students gain a deeper understanding of how climate change impacts people around the world.
• Offers Flexibility: The resource can be adapted for individual work, small group activities, or whole-class discussions.
• Saves You Time: The ready-to-use letters, video, and assignments make it easy to implement this resource in your classroom.

Spark meaningful conversations about climate change and empower your students to become informed, engaged global citizens!

Are you looking for French dictée - dictation exercises for your beginner level students? Do you struggle to find themed dictées that match beginner level French grammar? Dictées are great activities for building listening comprehension and writing skills.

My dictation exercises are unique because I've included both video and audio versions. Check out the preview to see all of the grammar that is covered in each of the ten dictées included in this bundle. Here is the Set 1 Bundle.

Each of the 10 dictées in this bundle include the following resources:

➯ Video presentation of the dictée. Watch me and listen as I read each sentence two times slowly enough to understand and write at the same time. Many non-natives find it makes the listening comprehension part of dictation exercises more manageable to see the speaker's mouth. Once I've finished reading the dictation, I will present each written sentence in French along with the English translation. Once we've gone through all of the sentences and students have checked their work, I will present the complete text in paragraph form on the screen. At that time, we can slowly read through the complete text together so they can see how the separate sentences actually form a short story. Please note that the preview highlights both SET 1 and SET 2.

➯ Audio presentation of the dictée. Listen as I read each sentence two times slowly enough to understand and write at the same time. This version of the exercise will be more challenging as students will not see the speaker's mouth.

➯ PDF of the numbered sentences in the dictée and the English translation.

➯ Numbered student response sheet. This is located on page 2 of the PDF.

➯ Here are the themes included in this bundle:

• La nourriture
• Passé composé avec avoir
• Passé composé avec être
• Interdictions et devoirs
• Savoir, pouvoir, vouloir
• Pronoms directs et indirects
• L'entretien
• Avantages et inconvénients
• Passé composé des verbes réfléchis
• Parler de son enfance

➯ The following dictées are included in Bundled Set 1:

• Présenter quelqu'un
• Pays, langue, nationalité
• Situer un objet
• Décrire une personne
• Décrire un lieu d'habitation
• Dans la rue
• À l'hôtel
• Les heures
• La semaine
• La routine  - Verbes réfléchis

"Dictation is the transcription of spoken text: one person who is "dictating" speaks and another who is "taking dictation" writes down the words as they are spoken. Among speakers of several languages, dictation is used as a test of language skill, similar to spelling bees in the English-speaking world."

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.

The Christmas season isn’t finished without watching this holiday classic! It revolves around a child's naive desire for his family to vanish. When they inadvertently abandon him, it backfires and forces him to grow up quickly, enabling him to protect his home from two burglars. All of this leads him to understand how deeply he loves and misses his family, revealing the true essence of the Christmas holidays. In summary, with imaginative traps, excellent humor, meaningful themes, and a well-crafted narrative, this story will lead you to reconsider wanting to grow up too quickly. It effortlessly combines humor, suffering, feelings, human instinct, and clever booby-traps into a single compact package. This movie has remarkably withstood the passage of time.

The tasks in this ebook are intended to be completed after watching the film, and they focus on practicing different abilities. The solutions can be found at the conclusion of the worksheet.

EAGLE VIDEO: https://youtu.be/imBaXkZO2NA

2 French Children's Story Videos (Petit Poulet and L'Oiseau et la baleine) from The French Experiment are linked.

For your beginner Core French class, I recommend having students watch one of the videos in French first with no subtitles. Have them try to answer as many questions as possible from the accompanying worksheet. You might want to play the video at .75x speed if you teach elementary students.

Next, play the video once more, this time with subtitles. Students will be able to fill in the blanks they missed the first time around.

The last question for each of the stories allow students to think critically about the lesson each story teaches.

The worksheets are in English. The videos are in French.

I found this allows students to think about what they are watching more carefully, learning more French words along the way.

An answer key is not included, but the questions are very simple and you will be able to answer them easily after watching the video. I wrote the answers while watching the videos along with the students.

The French Experiment offers these two French videos for free. The rest are on a paid version. You can check it out below.

After trade and communication between Europe and the Americas began following Columbus's voyage in 1492, many Europeans began to seek opportunities in the New World. One such group, now known as the Pilgrims, sailed from England to North America in 1620.

In 1620 the Mayflower crossed from England to North America. Filled to the brim with passengers, livestock, and supplies, they faced many delays before finally reaching the shores of the New World. The Pilgrims suffered and many of them died to establish a settlement in what is now Massachusetts, but through cooperation with local tribes of Native Americans they were eventually able to thrive.

Watch the excellent video “The Story of the Mayflower and the First Thanksgiving for Children” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brqIER2KHbE) with your students, and then do the activities in this ebook. The answers are available at the end of the book, as well as plenty of guidance for the teacher in the Teacher's notes.
