The students will examine, explain, and evaluate Article II, Section 1 of the US Constitution for specific information concerning the eligibility requirements and election process for the office of President of the United States and develop a position and express a viewpoint on the lesson’s "essential question": "How democratic is the American election process for the office of president?"

Students will examine aspects of Article II of the Constitution for specific information related to the requirements for and method of electing the president.

Students will examine how human actions and population changes can affect the environment. Students will examine a series of photographs that compare famous landmarks (Times Square, the Saltair Pavilion in Utah, Laguna Beach, and Niagara Falls) across time, and then they will identify human-generated changes in the physical environment, such as the addition of bridges and roads. Students will also examine U.S. Census Bureau population and housing data to see how population changes can contribute to changes in the physical environment. In addition, students will describe the impact of these changes on the environment.

Well known for addressing social issues in the world through her poetry, Maya Angelou's moving poems serve to teach historical topics in this lesson. To understand the world that surrounded her, students practice their visual literacy skills as they first examine photographs from the Library of Congress. These primary sources illustrate some of the events that affected her life and thus her writing. Next students research these events in order to create trading cards using the ReadWriteThink Trading Card Creator Student Interactive. While reading Angelou's poems, students share the trading cards to better understand the background for her writing.

Students will explore geographic features around the world using Google Slides and Earth.

This lesson plan guides educators through a filmmaking project that integrates scientific concepts. Students will work in groups to create documentaries that explain the scientific phenomena they have learned in the classroom. The lesson focuses on developing students' understanding of matter, properties of substances, changes in matter, and the conservation of mass. Students will conduct scientific experiments, collect data, research, write scripts, create storyboards, film experiments, and use multimedia tools to edit and enhance their documentaries. The lesson encourages student agency, provides customized support, and offers opportunities for reading, writing, speaking, and listening. By the end of the lesson, students will have produced their own educational films to showcase their understanding of scientific concepts.

We hope that you and your students enjoy this experience as they develop new connections and appreciations for art, indigenous heritage, and mathematizing the world.

Facial recognition is one of the many applications of AI technology. Like other technologies, facial recognition offers both opportunities to improve our lives and potential risks. Use this dilemma and thinking routine to help students consider the benefits and drawbacks of facial recognition.

In this lesson, students review examples of misinformation, identify a rumor pattern and create a list of red flags to watch out for. Then students will create a social media post warning others to be on the lookout for this type of misinformation and directing them to credible sources about the subject. Finally, students will discuss the impact of misinformation on a democratic society.

TIn this lesson we will be discussing with high school students how to protect themselves from fake news.  We will be doing an activity that has them using these skills in real time.

This project will be focused on designing, constructing and evaluating different containers to determine the optimal design for heat retention. After students have constructed their designs and collected and shared data, students will evaluate the class data to create an optimal design for our culminating event: warming ooey, gooey chocolate chip cookies to perfection! Through this activity, students will learn about energy transfer, engineering design process, data collection, graphing, rate of change, optimization, surface area and proportions. The students will test the effectiveness of their design using Vernier Probes to gather quantitative data and graphing the rate of temperature change. They will then create a poster presentation to share their data to the class. Students will use their mathematical skills to quantitatively analyze the strength and weaknesses of their designs while enjoying some delicious, toasty, warm cookies.
