In this kinesthetic activity, learners act out the rotation and revolution motions of Earth around the Sun over the course of one year. Learners also physically model the tilt of the Earth and will identify the summer and winter solstice and vernal and autumnal equinox locations in relation to Earth's orbit around the Sun.

In this activity, students will model the time after the Big Bang when the first nuclei of hydrogen and helium were created. The students will move and display cards that show the elements that are formed. This activity requires a large area - e.g., an outside location, a large classroom with seats moved back, or a gym. This activity is part of the "What is Your Cosmic Connection to the Elements" activity and information booklet. The booklet includes teacher notes and instructions as well as follow-up questions.

In this lesson, students are introduced to both potential energy and kinetic energy as forms of mechanical energy. A hands-on activity demonstrates how potential energy can change into kinetic energy by swinging a pendulum, illustrating the concept of conservation of energy. Students calculate the potential energy of the pendulum and predict how fast it will travel knowing that the potential energy will convert into kinetic energy. They verify their predictions by measuring the speed of the pendulum.

The Listening Guide for "King Midas and the Golden Touch" is included in this resource. This story will be read aloud on November 4th, 2020 @ 1:30 p.m. 

This is the story of King Midas & the Golden Touch read aloud.

The purpose of this task is to give students practice in reading, analyzing, and constructing algebraic expressions, attending to the relationship between the form of an expression and the context from which it arises. The context here is intentionally thin; the point is not to provide a practical application to kitchen floors, but to give a framework that imbues the expressions with an external meaning.

Create and present a variety of visual and multimedia presentations to best represent message for an intended audience and purpose.

This is a great little site to learn about the history of kites, the parts of kites and the science behind their flight.

There is the option to buy kits for your classroom to make kites if you wish, but that is just optional.

"400 millions de tonnes de plastique sont produites chaque année, dont 36 % sont destinées à un usage unique ou à l'emballage. Sur ce chiffre, seuls 9 % sont recyclés. Il est juste de dire que les plastiques sont partout, y compris dans l'océan. En fait, environ 13 millions de tonnes de plastique entrent dans les courants océaniques chaque année. Le plastique est devenu un pilier de la vie moderne. Il faudra un changement profond et transformationnel dans la conscience et les activités de l'humanité concernant l'océan pour briser le modèle plastique.

Nous croyons que c'est possible ! Mais nous avons besoin de votre aide.En mettant en relation des concepts socio-économiques et scientifiques tels que les bassins versants et les courants océaniques, les interactions de la chaîne alimentaire et l'effet de serre, les jeunes apprendront l'histoire du plastique, comment il a transformé nos habitudes de consommation, comment il nuit à la santé des océans, exacerbe la crise climatique actuelle, et comment ils peuvent protéger notre océan contre une nouvelle pollution plastique et restaurer les écosystèmes déjà touchés.

Grâce aux activités de ce kit éducatif, les élèves recevront les connaissances, les outils et les compétences nécessaires pour briser leur modèle plastique et devenir des leaders du changement - et tout cela commence dans votre classe."

"Kids can do anything, and Kize Bae is here to show them how. Tackling a new hobby in each video, her goal is simple: to show improvement in 30 days. Whether she's learning how to sing, play soccer, or solve a Rubik's Cube, her can-do attitude is bound to encourage viewers to try new things. Her tips on staying motivated and curious help promote life skills that teens can apply at home, in school, and in their relationships." (Common Sense Media)

On this website you will find a comprehensive collection of documents, oral histories, newspapers, paintings, and photos that relate to the events of the 1864 war and the aftermath. You are invited to become an historian, to study the evidence and come to your own conclusions about the causes, outcomes and how the war has been understood through time. You will find other mysteries here too, not the least of which is, who was Klatsassin? The name means: "nobody knows him".

This art history video discussion looks at Paul Klee's "Twittering Machine (Die Zwitscher-Maschine)", 1922, watercolor, ink, and gouache on paper (MoMA).

This art history video discussion examines Gustav Klimt's "Death and Life", 1910, reworked 1915, oil on canvas, 178 x 198 cm (Leopold Museum, Vienna).

Here's a link describing one of the most famous Scandinavian games, Kubb. Gather some resources from home or from around the school and engage in a fun, traditional game that the Vikings played!

Animation videos explaining things with optimistic nihilism.

They do take a unique approach to some topics so I strongly suggest you preview videos yourself before using them with students. E.g., Smoking is Awesome (this goes through why it makes us feel so good before fully explaining the havoc it puts bodies through!)

There is a lot to ponder and learn from this site!

These videos would be great to use for debate.
