The Trading Game (Social Studies Simulation)
This trading simulation game was developed during my practicum as part of a unit on Canada's trading partners but can be easily adapted for History and Social Studies lessons in other countries, as well as exploring ancient civilizations. The focus of the game is to instill an understanding of the uneven distribution of global resources, and is intended to be played with lots of time for a (guaranteed passionate!) discussion period afterwards. This game was modeled for the Ontario Curriculum (gr

FSA Simulation for 6th Grade Math: 64 qsts; NO PREP Distance Learning Packet
I created this FSA Simulation to simulate the varying levels of rigor on the actual 6th Grade Math FSA. The test includes Session 1 and Session 2, each with 32 questions. It also includes an answer sheet for the student, and an answer key for the teacher, parent, or for the student to self-correct. This test was designed to simulate the Florida FSA, but the standards are very similar to most other states. Therefore this also makes a great practice test for: Georgia Milestones Indiana

GPS Simulation - Applications of Algebra and Geometry - Aligned with Numb3rs
Are you tired of hearing your students say "When would you ever use this!?" This lesson is a perfect way to silence their complaints!
I originally designed this lesson to be used after watching the episode "Convergence"of the CBS television series Numb3rs. I think every middle/HS teacher should own copies of this series. If you aren't familiar with the show, it is basically a crime show where the characters solve crimes with math. (Similar to CSI) You might be able to download free episodes

This power point presentation shows students how to construct thriangles using Pencil, Ruler, Protractor or compasses. Step by step instructions are given for staff below each slide and my students tend to follow the instructions easily keeping up with sir. I then have them write into their books in their own words how they would construct the said triangle. This power point is three of my lessons put on one slideshow. Hence I would treat it as three lessons.
