Description
Do grades matter? Help your students understand the importance of high school grades and how to calculate GPA with this college readiness interactive Google Slides presentation that answers the following questions:
- What do grades measure?
- Why do grades matter?
- Why do colleges care about grades?
- What else matters for college acceptance?
- What if your grades are low?
- What is GPA and how do you calculate it?
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
- Questions to hook students and activate prior knowledge at the beginning of the presentation.
- The chance to ask questions before getting into the lesson.
- Discussion and reflection questions at the end of the presentation.
- An extension activity asking students to show how they would calculate their GPA (Note: this is the only editable part of the presentation so that you can change the activity as you see fit or add your own creative idea).
- Ideas for engaging students and extending the lesson!
This presentation can be used by teachers or counselors with distance learning, face-to-face instruction, OR a hybrid approach in any secondary class. You can present the lesson to the whole class or have students review it themselves in small groups! This is the perfect lesson for a middle or high school AVID, advisory, or language arts class, or really any college and career readiness class!
This product is a COMPLETE LESSON in one place (similar to a Hyperdoc, which takes students through the learning cycle in one doc or slide deck using hyperlinks and other media). Perfect for using as a differentiated, self-paced, student-centered lesson and/or whole class presentation!
The time it takes for the entire lesson will vary depending on how much time you allow for group discussions, follow-up class sharing, and extension activities. You could spend as little as 60 minutes on this lesson if that's all the time you have, or as much as one to three whole classes or more if you include some of the suggested extension activities. For ESL classes, you may need more time.
Note: You can skip or delete any of the slides you don't want to use and add your own notes to any of the slides.
