Getting students to read is not always easy. The teacher chooses one of their favorite books and shares it with students is an excellent way to get them excited about reading. Tell them why it is one of your favorite books. In this lesson, students will explore character, plot, and theme and learn to write persuasively as they develop a movie-style trailer for a book they have read.Image information

This lesson Plan is for Financial Literacy and Budget Planning.  The Standards were not listed in the Resource section so they are as follows:Standard 1Analyze the role of cultural, social, and emotional influences on financial behavior.Evaluate the role of emotions, attitudes and behavior in making financial decisions.Recognize that individuals are responsible for their own financial decisions and for subsequent positive and negative consequences.Standard 2Define a rational decision-making process and the steps of financial planning.Define opportunity cost (tradeoffs) and their role in decision making.Describe a rational decision - making process.Identify short- and long-term financial decisions and the impact they have on financial planning.Define the elements of a financial plan.Standard 1Identify and explain the process of budgeting based on calculated income.Develop a budget.Identify and prioritize fixed, fixed variable and variable budget categories.The Image for this Budget Planner was created by myself, Sharon Pinkerton.

This Geometry Concept Collection is a rigorous presentation of high school geometry. It is fully correlated with the Common Core State Standards.

This course is an introduction to the calculus of functions of several variables. It begins with studying the basic objects of multidimensional geometry: vectors and vector operations, lines, planes, cylinders, quadric surfaces, and various coordinate systems. It continues with the elementary differential geometry of vector functions and space curves. After this, it extends the basic tools of differential calculus - limits, continuity, derivatives, linearization, and optimization - to multidimensional problems. The course will conclude with a study of integration in higher dimensions, culminating in a multidimensional version of the substitution rule.

This contemporary calculus course is the third in a three-part sequence. In this course students continue to explore the concepts, applications, and techniques of Calculus - the mathematics of change. Calculus has wide-spread application in science, economics and engineering, and is a foundation college course for further work in these areas. This is a required class for most science and mathematics majors.Login: guest_oclPassword: ocl

Topics in this course include transcendental functions, techniques of integration, applications of the integral, improper integrals, l'Hospital's rule, sequences, and series.

This course is an introduction to differential and integral calculus. It begins with a short review of basic concepts surrounding the notion of a function. Then it introduces the important concept of the limit of a function, and use it to study continuity and the tangent problem. The solution to the tangent problem leads to the study of derivatives and their applications. Then it considers the area problem and its solution, the definite integral. The course concludes with the calculus of elementary transcendental functions.

This lesson is about lines of symmetry.  Students will learn and practice lines of symmetry on many objects in a variety of ways.   Credits: Opening image: http://images.all4ed.org/social-distancing-spots/

This is a Preschool learning activity about Community Helpers. It is designed to be done at home, on Preschool off-days, with assistance from an adult. Students will be working through a Google Slide presentation with videos teaching about 5 different community helpers, and taking notes and adding pictures about the Community Helpers they learned about. 

This lesson plan is to be used for a reading lesson.  The students will choose a fiction story and get it approved by the teacher.  Then they will take notes as they read to compare and contrast either characters, settings, or events in the story.  After finishing the book, the students will create a venn diagram in Pages on Ipad and submit that to the teacher.  The students needs to have three facts for each contrast and comparison.
