Students select three different rectangles and determine the number of color tiles needed to cover them. Students sketch and label the rectangles in order from least to greatest area and complete sentence stems about the rectangles.

In this lesson students work in collaborative groups to collect, represent, and interpret numerical data that they generate by using Sphero robots to knock down bowling pins!

In this lesson, students will use a bot (Beebot/Shero Indi, etc) to show their understanding of decoding and sight words.

This resource is a multiple choice assessment.  Students are asked the following:Identify by sight:whole notehalf notequarter noteeighth note (single)eighth note (beamed)whole resthalf restquarter rest     2.  Identify the number of beats for each of the above notes and rests.

In this lesson students engineer ramps and race monster trucks. Students estimate and measure distances traveled and then organize and visually represent this data in a graph.

Having studied the archetypes of heros, students will be asked to complete a collaborative essay of a hero's journey utilizing narrative writing skills, the stages of the hero's journey, and elements, such as supernatural beings or creatures, found in mythology.  Students will bring the events of their hero’s journey to life by using dialogue, descrition, transition phrases, and sensory language.   Using a hyper-doc students will work in groups to create their collaborative story.If you want an option for students to have their own individual work have them independently complete Phase 4 of the hyper-doc.

These resources were provided by Moore County.  Teams will get 30 minutes to engineer something for their robot to accomplish a task. After that, teams will have 30 minutes to program their robot to complete the task. This competition is only for K-2 students. Each school may send up to 4 Dash teams to the Elementary showcase. 

This writing assessment can be used within an informational, research-based unit. Students will spend time, in class, reading myths based on natural disasters and researching a natural disaster. Students will create their own, original myth based on their independent research.

This purpose of this mini activity is to supplement your recorder instruction.  Within the attached document your students will be asked to do the following:Fill in the recorder hole for the fingering of each note (10 items)Draw the note on the music staff below each recorder that matches the fingering (10 items)Play a note on your recorder.  Draw the note on the music staff and fill in the fingering (5 items)This resource is a downloadable PDF.

Students will research an African American person based on set questions. The students will present their person in an interview format - Guess Who.This resource has been remixed to add a digital presentation option.

I took four questions from this Lesson from EngageNY and made a google form assessment. Students can answer as an assignemnt ,warm-up , or exit ticket.

This is an exploration activity for students to visually see the graph of trig functions and understand about sin and cos functions and understand the concept of amplitude.and periods. Thanks to the original author, VIJAYLAKSHMI SANKARAN for sharing and allowing remix access to this resource.

This mini activity and assessment can be used to review or assess the most common notes used in playing the recorder.  Students are asked to:Identify letter name of noteIdentify the kind of noteIdentify the line or space numberIdentify the number of beats each note receivesThe activity is prefaced with two videos to aid in lesson delivery.

Project Summary
In this lesson students will learn about electromagnetic energy through a female engineer who invented frequency hopping that is used by so many devices we use daily. Students will explore and solve a real world problem by designing a device to block or build a stronger Wi-Fi signals. Each team will record their work with Flip.
Driving Questions / Scenario (what are we trying to solve or improve?)

What is the electromagnetic spectrum?
Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum does Wi-Fi use?
What materials do you think will block a Wi-Fi signal? What materials do you think will let a Wi-Fi signal pass through?

In this lesson, students use their knowledge of sound energy to create a soundproof box to protect a secret code word! Students measure and graph decibels to determine how well their boxes omit sounds!

Students will be able to solve a system of equations  using substitution, elimination and graphing techniques. Primary focus is on linear systems with two variables.  Exploration is on systems involving quadratics, linears and circles with graphing.

In this lesson students create large story maps to retell and familiar text. Students record themselves and place QR codes along the story map. Students then code Sphero Robots, dressed as main characters, to make their way through each part of the story.
