In this lesson students will explore circle graphs. See teacher notes for more details in the notes section of the slides.  Please be sure to make a copy and delete notes before assigning to students.

Circulatory System 101 is a Health lesson designed by a Physical Education/Health Teacher to support Health instruction. Created By: Willie Miles Powhatan County Public Schools

Use slides to cover the concepts of duties, rights, responsibilities, and traits.  You can add pictures to the slides (or after) to showcase what they mean and/or have a discussion on where students see these being used.  To reinforce that students can apply the difference between the four different categories of rights/duties/traits/responsibilities, have students create a citizenship web of themselves using either construction paper or a digital slide/page of who they are as a citizen.  For further extension, have students add what each might look like for them as a citizen.  This helps them to categorize and explain the difference between duties and rights, as well as understanding their basic first amendment rights and traits of a citizen. 

This is a Desmos activity to assess the knowledge students have of the slope of parallel and perpendicular lines and angle relationships formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal.

Students will plan, write, and submit a formal MLA formatted research paper regarding Checks and Balances from the VA Civics Curriculum. Students will research a topic, create a thesis statement, and include in-text citations in their final product. ** This performance assessment was developed by a collaborative team of teachers and division staff from Middlesex, Poquoson, and West Point school divisions.

This activity should be completed as an informal pre- assessment and informal post- assessment. Before the unit begins, students will need to work with a partner (no more than three) and decide how they are going to sort the 30 pictures in the Google Media Album. ( I have an example loaded from my Schoology page. You can make this by clicking “Add Materials” and scroll and click “Media Album.” From there you can Title the album and start loading pictures from the Civil War. This will require you to add pictures to your computer’s library before you start the album. ) If you did not want to have a digital album, or if you do not have Schoology, you can print the pictures for the students to sort by hand.

The goal of this module is to provide USII students with background knowledge in the Civil War as they begin the Reconstruction curriculum. Each day begins with a Hook for the day’s content. This hook is designed to engage students in the day’s content through a whole class or small group discussion. Students will independently review the provided Learning Resources for each Learning Intention.  They should review all of the available resources to get a full understanding of this topic. Students will independently complete the Success Check for all Learning Intentions to receive credit for the module. There are optional Extension activities associated with each day. This extension is designed to connect USII Geography content with the Civil War content.  Google Drive Folder with all resources (must make a copy of each resource to modify): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jG7DTzswj3bsZM7xKHfMgJhVM07evQfN?usp=sharing Google Docs Lesson plan: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ErmsDxexiKYJNbqz49QqIGAxuDHZ00O2NJ6B5X3caww/copy

Students will participate in a 5E lesson on classification. To ENGAGE, students will think about common vs scientific names and interpret relatedness between four species. To EXPLORE, students will watch a clip of their choice from Our Planet and document organisms' defining characteristics. Students create a hierarchy to predict the relatedness of the species. To then learn about classification systems, students will participate in the EXPLAIN activities. Three videos and guided notes are available for students to document their learning. An EVALUATIVE formative assignment Candy Cladogram Drag and Drop is available for students to practice their understanding of phylogenetics. Then, students will ELABORATE on their knowledge by researching the scientific names of the organisms they observed in the Our Planet clip (explore section). Students will evaluate the accuracy of their orginial hierarchy and explain how scientific developments have impacted classification. Additional cladograms are included for students to interpret.

Students participate in evaluating a description of a crime scene to prove innocence or guilt. 

This is a hyperdoc for level 1 students to learn more about cognates and why they should study French. They will also explore French in their environments. 

This activity should be used as a review for the reasons why colonists came to the New World. After the context clues are filled in, students will choose a photo from Google Images that represents each of the colonies that came to the new world.

This inquiry focuses on the myriad of injustices inflicted upon people of color during the colonial period, and how these early interactions and acts of oppression provided a foundation for the racial injustices still experienced in America today.  From Europeans’ first contact with American Indians, to the subjugation of African slaves, a hierarchy based on race was imposed on all who lived in the New World.

This is an originally created Desmos activity. In this activity, students interact with different screens to perform a combination of transformations. Students will check their work and, upon revealing the answer, will not be able to change their answers. After checking their work, students will justify their creations.

A simple and clear compilation of common use "AR" verbs in Spanish I & II use along with the attach Quizlet card set or by itself. There is also and accompanying teacher guide with all the answers. 

This is a list of common use "ER" verbs. There is an activity, and a quizlet set both have answers. You can use them after you teach ER verbs or Stem change verbs.

This lesson teaches the difference between common and proper nouns. Use the attached PPT “Nouns Proper or Common” to go over the difference between a common and proper noun. After teaching the lesson with the ppt. hand them the sorting worksheet to work independently or with a partner. 

Compare and Contrast with Music is a cross-curricular lesson designed by an Elementary Music teacher to support Language Arts instruction. Created By: Joshua Wright Powhatan County Public Schools.

Within this interactive lesson, students will navigate and explore comparing positive and negative fractions, deicmals, and percents through Desmos. Students will also gain practice from finding equivalencies, using picture representations and number lines, and through mathematical discourse. Students will be able to do the following:Use a number line to sort, compare, and order integers, fractions, decimals, and percents.Compare integers, fractions, decimals, and percents.Order integers, fractions, decimals, and percents.
