Student Privacy Lesson plan for students grades 6-12

One of my goals this coming year is to expand the resources I know about for my math / science folks, since that isn't my natural interest or background. This Encyclopedia of Life source is amazing in its information and layout, but it also has a wealth of lesson plans for a variety of ages that tie directly to what our staff is teaching. The lessons are a blend of technology and other activities. A great resource to share with science teachers!

This is a package of lesson plans about the causes of the American Revolution. You can download the whole kit, or choose individual lesson plans.

A quick lesson plan, complete with a slide deck for presentation and a writing prompt. Geared to 9th/10th grade ELA

This resource from WISELearn Resources is a collection of primary sources exploring the poetry of Maya Angelou, giving students an experience in understanding the difference between primary and secondary sources and the opportunity to think critically about synthesizing information found across many sources. I plan to share this with my 8th grade ELA / SS teachers.

This teacher unit plan could be used for a science class and learning about matter and chemistry.

The webinar will allow participants to: critically examine common practices associated with use of social media tools in the library; learn how to incorporate social media strategies into marketing plans effectively, understanding the capabilities of different channels and how they can be tailored to suit your library's individual needs; understand how trends in librarianship affect social media usage, how use of social media can vary by job role, and how you can transfer this knowledge to enhance the effectiveness of your role.

I think this would be a fun alternative to the traditional book report. Students are introduced to the five story elements in Session One. In Session Two students use Comic Creator Student Interactive to create a six-frame comic strip to map story elements from a story they have read.

I used this with the 4th grade class last year and they LOVED it!

I was looking for ideas to add to our immigration unit. This was full of ideas! I found 7 different lesson plans that contained videos, text, hands on research/analyzing/presenting activities complete with rubrics! The one I found most interesting was looking more at current immigration issues, and with countries bordering the US.
