Students will practice visualizing and understanding that visualization is an important comprehension strategy. Students will share their visualization of the story through original artwork.
In a shared Google Slide presentation, students will create one slide to present the highlights of their research papers or projects. They will include their research question, thesis statement, and show one credible source they used.
This lesson plan is for a short unit on making promotional films for elective classes to recruit students and to help students build their multimedia presentation skills as well as digital media literacy. The goal is to create a 2-3-minute example film that will promote elective classes and give reasons why students take specific programs and what their goals and intentions for these classes are. This is part of a unit that can be taught in as little as a week but would probably be best spaced out over at least 1-2 weeks.

This is day four of a five day unit teaching students strong research skills for a "white paper" style research paper (can be modified for any procon research assignment). For the purpose of this assignment, the white paper is an argumentative piece which introduces a problem and argues a solution to that problem. In this team taught lesson, students will learn how to evaluate sources for credibility.
This is day three of a five day unit teaching students strong research skills for a "white paper" style research paper (can be modified for any procon research assignment). For the purpose of this assignment, the white paper is an argumentative piece which introduces a problem and argues a solution to that problem. In this teamtaught lesson, students will continue to learn that researching is not a linear process. Students will learn to adjust their topic based on what information is available (with their presearch). Focus will be on finding good search terms and thinking outside of the box to gather evidence.
This is Day 2 of a 5 day unit teaching students strong research skills for a "white paper" style research paper (can be modified for any pro-con research assignment). For the purpose of this assignment, the white paper is an argumentative piece which introduces a problem and argues a solution to that problem.In this team taught lesson, students will learn that researching is not a linear process. They will use "presearch" to help them test, adjust, or even abandon viable topics from their brainstorming. They will learn to narrow ideas to smaller, researchable concepts.
This is Day Four of a Five Day unit teaching students strong research skills for a "white paper" style research paper (can be modified for any procon research assignment). For the purpose of this assignment, the white paper is an argumentative piece which introduces a problem and argues a solution to that problem.In this team taught lesson, students will learn how to incorporate sources in their paper. Focus will be on treating previous discussion of their topic as a "conversation" they are taking part in.
In this lesson, students read informational pieces about whether or not schools should teach cursive writing. They will evaluate the arguments presented and then choose a side of the issue. Finally, they will write their own arguments expressing their points of view.
This resource is a Language Arts student activity that utilizes Utah's Online Library resources - specifically, Gale in Context High School and eMedia - to help students research background information to help them in their study of Shakespearean plays, such as Romeo and Juliet.
Safety First: Fire Safety. Hosted by Eagles sports player Brian Dawkins, who goes through the five rules of fire safety: "Stop. Drop. Roll. Cool. Call." Children act out the burn prevention exercise and medical experts explain the difference between first, second, and third degree burns. The importance of burn prevention and treating stoves, electric devices, and hot water with care is emphasized.
A great first lesson to introduce your students to writing creative scary stories!
Sentence Structure and Complexity:Students will learn about the common forms of sentence structures, including simple, complex, and compound sentences. Several tips and tricks, such as choosing the appropriate transition and using commas to expand sentences, are included in this lesson, as well as opportunities to practice writing complex sentences.Student grouping: This Nearpod activity can be student-led, teacher-led or both. My preference is to present as teacher-led and then assign as student-led.This Item was created by Nearpod.
Before reading, set a purpose for reading informational text by turning the title and subtitles into questions.
The beauty of cell animation is that it can make the implausible seem possible. So the spirits of the haunted wood and the bewitching transformations of Titania, Oberon and the innocent tradesman Bottom, come to life with a treatment that complements Shakespeare's spectacular imagery.
A comic tale of youthful love, with the Forest of Arden as its sylvan stage. The idyllic backgrounds and wistful moods of Rosalind and Celia are sympathetically created by the unusual and visually appealing medium of painting in oils on cells.
All animation techniques are painstaking, but that of painting on glass is especially so. This unusual medium succeeds impressively in capturing the ghostly presence of Hamlet's father and the agonized indecision of Hamlet himself, in this classic depiction of corruption and revenge.
Shakespeare's dramatization of the alliances and intrigues that surrounded and finally destroyed the great Roman General is rendered with style and subtlety by superb cell animation. This study of personal power versus the good of the state is still as provoking as ever.
The richly rewarding technique of painting on glass has been uniquely explored for this blackest of black comedies. No compassion is shown by the hunchback King Richard, whose unquenchable thirst for power destroys his wife, his brother, his best friend and his nephews, the little princes in the tower.
The all-enveloping evil of Shakespeare's bloodiest work is captured with arresting and graphic intensity by powerful cell animation. Awash with murder, madness and dark forces, it is easy to understand the superstition that causes those in the theatre to refer to Macbeth with an unusual respect.
The warmth of a Mediterranean setting contrasts with the coldness in Iago's heart, as he relentlessly turns his noble master, Othello, against the beautiful and innocent Desdemona. All the emotional intensity of Shakespeare's study of jealousy is conveyed vividly by striking cell animation.
