Working with large datasets that support exploration of patterns is an essential first step in becoming fluent with data. In this dynamic data science activity, students can access part of the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, containing demographic information about California residents (e.g., marital status, sex, place of birth, employment status, and health information). Students can try some of the suggested data science challenges, such as finding out the average income of Californians of different age groups in 2013, then engage in investigating their own questions.
Students explore call and response songs through singing.
Calming and refocusing techniques increase oxygen and blood flow in the body which can lessen fatigue, increase focus, reduce stress and anxiety, and help to manage strong feelings.
This is designed originally as a Google HyperDoc and it is recommended that teachers copy the HyperDoc and adapt it as needed to suit their needs. The lesson follows the Engage, Explore, Explain, Apply, and Reflect learning structure and links to various other resources. Here are links to various resources used in this activity including models:Inverences Activity: Choice OptionInferences Activity: Unwind OptionModel: Inference and Conclusion Part OneModel: Inference and Conclusion Part Two
This science and math lesson uses coated candy and water to create a rainbow on a plate. It takes a popular internet activity and modifies it for the classroom. It's extended by having students hypothesize if other temperatures of water will work and if different colors of the candies run faster than others. It also meets the math SOLs because students can calculate the cost of the experiment and/or create graphs of the results of the experiments. You could extend this activity into art or English writing by having students draw their rainbows or write about what they saw happening on the plate as a report writing. You could have them take it a step further and do a creative writing about what they think is at the other end of the rainbow.
Students will complete a Task Sheet/Choice Board about Capitalism and Socialism. Task choices also include the impact of labor unions. Lesson take around 90 mins. I split it up over two block periods, starting the first day with an introduction lecture on the factors of production, Smith, and Marx. Works well for World History II but could be adapted for Personal Finance or Economics.

Students research two variables about the car model they intend to purchase. They use Desmos to compare these same variables across five different car models. Students use analysis of bivariate data in order to decide which car makes sense to buy. Students prepare and share a summary statement and include desmos screen shots in order to justify their purchase. This task offers students experiences in making predictions, using data, scatterplots, or the equation of the curve of best fit for decision-making in a practical problem.
