Students will read the declarations of secession from each state joining the CSA. Students can be assigned to read all, a few, or just one. Students will then draft a statement summarizing the reason(s) the state is giving for secession. Students can write/share these with the class and then discuss any commonalities among the statements to determine the cause of the Civil War according the states that seceded.

In this 10 minute video Paul Andersen discusses cell communication. He begins by explaining how he communicates with other individuals using various forms of electronic communication. Included in this resource are a worksheet and full transcript of the video.

Transcript added from YouTube subtitles. You can use this to write your own worksheet or quiz.

The cell phone task is open-ended in that it allows students to use multiple solution strategies. Students can create an algebraic inequality or reason through the problem differently. Students can also get different answers (decimal or whole number) as along as they are able to provide reasoning towards their solution.

During the teaching of Ancient Chinese Philosophies, this is a formative assessment to check for students understanding and application of the Chinese Schools of Thought.

The students will see an example of the circular flow map in a video and a presentation and how the parts of the map interact and are interdependent on each other. The student will learn how households and businesses interact in the market for resources and in the market for goods and services. They also see how money keeps the whole process moving. Remix made to make it easier to understand.

This activity is intended as an introduction to close-reading using visual media. In this lesson, students will review and then closely "read" the painting, "The Kiss" by Gustav Klimt in order to understand the process of close-reading and its impact on our understanding of texts. Once students have learned how to conduct close-reading of a visual text, they reflect on how they might transfer this skill to the written word.
This activity also includes optional extension activities that incorporate poetry into the lesson.

Students will examine a map projection of a chosen USGS topographic map versus other maps. The teacher will explain that each map is drawn according to a specific map projection. Students will be given or shown a USGS poster of numerous map projections, as well as cartography in texts to illustrate how distance, direction, angle, or area have to be distorted.

Students will color code each set of triangles to tell which shortcut, if any, can prove the triangles congruent. Shortcuts included are SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and HL. Students can complete this digitally or it can be printed out and used as a worksheet.

This student research and planning sheet will help you keep students on task during their research and creation of a kingdom superhero or super-villain inspired by the teach engineering lesson plan linked in this resource.

This assignment gives students an opportunity to research current credit card offers online, specifically ones that are geared towards those with little or no credit.

This is a task from the Illustrative Mathematics website that is one part of a complete illustration of the standard to which it is aligned. Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important aspects of the task and its potential use. VDOE provides a lesson plan, activities, remediation, and an exit slip to help students understand and correctly apply the distributive property.

A digital scrum board that you can use in any content area! This is a project management resource.

The Egyptian Barter Game is a lesson designed to get students active in the classroom while learning about Egyptian culture and the barter system. It is a card game (using homemade cards and other materials) which should be played more than once so students can consider their strategies used to barter their "haves" for their "needs." It should not be students' first introduction to Egyptian culture but should come after some exposure to what life was like in ancient Egypt. Addresses Virginia SOL: HSS.2.9, HSS.3.2, HSS.3.8, HSS.3.9
