Identify relative and absolute location and make a connection between how digital programmers through an activity to help students practice absolute and relative location while working to debug or problem solve like programmers.

This collection uses primary sources to explore The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain. Digital Public Library of America Primary Source Sets are designed to help students develop their critical thinking skills and draw diverse material from libraries, archives, and museums across the United States. Each set includes an overview, ten to fifteen primary sources, links to related resources, and a teaching guide. These sets were created and reviewed by the teachers on the DPLA's Education Advisory Committee.

Students will watch and listen to Eric Carle reading his book A Very Hungry Caterpillar and use visuals to sequence and retell the events of the story. Students will use days of the week vocabulary to help them sequence the story.

Students will learn to find main idea in a nonfiction text about endangered rhinoceroses. Main idea should be taught prior to this lesson using reading strategies. Students should already know main idea is what the text is mainly about in one sentence. Students should be able to locate the main idea in the topic sentence, heading, last sentence of the text, and know it may be found in text features. This lesson was developed by Ashley Wondra as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

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!

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!

This sources is a remix of Sarah Davies' original work on "Sports Medicine Model: Mechanism of Injuries" The attached powerpoint contains videos and questions not included in the original powerpoint in an effort to make the powerpoint more engaging.In the remix there are three great videos from a medical doctor, ABC news, and a youtube sports channel.  In these videos students will learn about what it takes to be as sports medicine doctor/orthopedist,  the risks students, parents, and coaches need to understand about children playing sports, and they will witness major college football injuries that have happened in the past.Feel free to do a think, pair, share activity after viewing the videos.   

This course is designed to help students develop a general awareness of health careers and specific preparation for physical therapy and sports medicine occupations. Classroom instruction covers such topics as: medical terminology; human anatomy; emergency procedures; soft tissue and bone injuries; causes, symptoms and management of injuries; nutrition; physical fitness; and career opportunities. In addition to this ongoing classroom instruction, students will rotate through on-the-job training experiences with local physical therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, physical education instructors and recreational facility managers. Throughout this course, the studentsŐ core academic skills and ability to deal with people will be stressed.

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.

Industrial Revolution compared to today’s technologies.
Students will create a digital timeline of how technologies have evolved since the industrial revolution.

Use this lesson to introduce the 5 types of text structure to your students. 

This is a task derived from the Illustrative Mathematics website. Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important aspects of the task and its potential use. The tasks were turned into an interactive Google Slides activity to enhance digital use and visualization.
