In this activity, students will interview a peer via video conferencing. Students will watch a brief Brainpop video on how to conduct an interview, review interview etiquette, and answer a questionnaire to better prepare themselves for the interview process.
Three days are recommended for the entire process. Day 1: Set up for the interview, Day 2: Group 1 interviews, Day 3: Group 2 interviews. The class will be split into groups (Interviewer and Interviewee) or you can ask another class to participate with you - video "pen pals". The two groups will switch and play the reverse rolls.

This performance task is a computer science (CS) integration project where your students will take you on a virtual field trip. It can be to a museum, a historical site, a modern destination, a book, a planet or really anywhere. Along the way, they will incorporate CS concepts into their projects including sequences, conditionals, and events to add interactivity. This is a great project for students to share their research and learning from a wide variety of subject areas like social studies, language arts, world languages, history, etc. This unit includes 5th grade standards for the Virginia CS Standards of Learning, but it can easily be adapted for younger and older students. The latest resources for this project can be found at https://sites.google.com/virginia.edu/virtualfieldtrip/resources.

This activity will ask students to locate geographic regions and features on a class map using longitude and latitude measurements. Using the longitude and latitude data, students will be able to visualize geographic features in the actual location in order to analyze the living conditions of various regions.This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 2010256.Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Science Foundation.

Students will learn about The Water Walker, Josephine Mandamin, and discuss and research topics related to the protection of our water sources. Students will then take their research and consider how advancements in technology over the past 50 years (specifically transportation and and business (shipping, manufacturing) have impacted the local water supplies.This lesson was created through a partnership between CodeVA and the Virginia Tribal Education Consortium (VTEC).

The students will start the lesson by coming to the carpet. They will discuss ways they use computers and the importance of taking care of them. After that, they will watch a quick video about how to take care of a Chromebook and then make a class list of rules to follow when using the computer. The students will then go back to their seats and color a book of computer rules. Once they finish and the teacher is assembling the book for each child, the student will name at least 2 ways to take care of a computer.

Description: There is weathering, erosion, and deposition occurring on the playground and disturbing the area where the students can play! First, invite the students to try to locate areas on the school grounds that show signs of these processes. Visit these areas as a class and observe what is happening as the soil is broken down, moved away, and dropped somewhere else. (If there is not an appropriate spot on the school grounds, the teacher can use a photograph.) Your job is to determine the best way to stop the soil from breaking down and moving so the playground is not ruined.

In this professional development presentation, educators learn about Algorithms (1 of the 7 components of Computational Thinking, according the Ignite My Future platform). This presentation can be used by individuals to learn about them, or used to present to others. The video is a recording of one of the sessions provided to teachers through a 7 week series of "CT Parties".Within this resource, you will find the presentation slides, a recording, a K-2 and 3-5 lesson to develop an understanding of algorithms, and activities to support parents understanding and home use of the strategy. This lesson is part of the Virginia K-12 Computer Science Pipeline which is partly funded through a GO Virginia grant in partnership with Chesapeake Public Schools, Loudoun County Public Schools, and the Loudoun Education Foundation.
