Conduct a multicultural fair to explore and celebrate different cultures. Students will research a country, prepare traditional dishes, and present on cultural practices.

A math lesson that is 60 minutes. I need 5 stations, with a 3 minute transition into each station. One station can be a worksheet, a second station will be a word problem, a third station will be math game station, the 4th station is science and math, and a 5th station is a math skills practice

n this protect students will focus on whistleblowing in the US government post Cold War. For the entry event, you might use the trailer for The Most Dangerous Man in America. They’ll learn about the Vietnam War and the Pentagon Papers in depth (possible resources) as well as researching more contemporary examples and current whistleblower laws and protections. They’ll engage in a Socratic Seminar on the role of the press in whistleblowing, ideally with invited local journalists and government representatives. The final product asks students to write a College Ready Assessment answering driving question, ideally for publication. While the emphasis here is on assessing students on their Humanities skills via the CRA, you might add to the authenticity by having students advocate for or against the role of the press or whistleblower protections in maintaining a healthy democracy.

Future City Project (Grade 2 Summer School) Theme: “Transportation in the City of the Future” Project Overview Students will work over 5 weeks to design and build a “Future City” model. Their city should include different kinds of transportation that help people travel safely, quickly, and in environmentally friendly ways. Students will imagine what cities might look like in the future and create buildings, roads, parks, and transportation systems using craft and recycled materials. At the end of the project, students will present their Future City to the class and explain how people move around their city. Student-Friendly Project Description Welcome Future City Builders! In this project, you will become an engineer, inventor, and city planner! You will create a city from the future. Your city needs: Homes and buildings Roads or pathways Transportation systems Parks or fun places Ways to help people and the Earth You will think about: How people travel How transportation can be faster and safer How cities can stay clean and healthy Your transportation ideas can include: Flying cars Solar-powered buses Underground trains Robot taxis Bike highways Hoverboards Boats, drones, or anything you imagine! Final Project Requirements Each Future City should include: At least 3 types of transportation Roads, tracks, paths, or travel routes At least 4 buildings or places A city name A short presentation explaining: How people travel What makes the city special How transportation helps the environment Weekly Plan Week 1: Imagine the Future Activity Students brainstorm and draw ideas for a future city. Mini Lessons What is transportation? Different ways people travel today Transportation of the future Maps and city planning Student Tasks Draw transportation ideas Choose a city name Create a simple city map Materials Drawing paper Pencils Crayons/markers Picture books about cities and transportation Chart paper Week 2: Design the City Activity Students plan buildings, roads, and transportation routes. Student Tasks Decide where buildings go Add roads, rails, water paths, or sky paths Label important places Materials Large poster board or cardboard base Rulers Colored paper Scissors Glue sticks Stickers (optional) Week 3: Build Transportation Activity Students create transportation models. Student Tasks Build cars, trains, buses, or flying machines Create roads or tracks Add signs or signals Materials Toilet paper rolls Small boxes Egg cartons Bottle caps Pipe cleaners Craft sticks Aluminum foil Tape Glue Paint or markers Week 4: Build the Future City Activity Students assemble all parts of the city. Student Tasks Attach buildings and transportation Add parks, trees, bridges, or lights Decorate the city Materials Cardboard Construction paper Cotton balls Tissue paper Recycled containers String or yarn Paint brushes Tempera paint Week 5: Present and Celebrate Activity Students present their Future City projects. Student Tasks Practice speaking clearly Explain transportation systems Share favorite part of the city Optional Celebration “Future City Museum Walk” Invite families or another class Materials Presentation cards Labels for projects Certificates (optional) Simple Student Instructions Step 1: Plan Draw your future city and decide how people will travel. Step 2: Build Use recycled materials to make buildings and transportation. Step 3: Create Transportation Add roads, tracks, skyways, or tunnels. Step 4: Decorate Make your city colorful and exciting. Step 5: Present Tell the class about your city and transportation ideas. Teacher Notes Learning Goals Students will: Explore transportation and city planning Practice creativity and problem-solving Use speaking and presentation skills Work with shapes, maps, and design Learn about environmental responsibility Cross-Curricular Connections Science: Energy and transportation Social Studies: Communities and cities Math: Shapes, measurement, mapping Writing: Descriptive sentences and labels Art: Model building and design Optional Extensions Add moving vehicles Include renewable energy ideas Write a “tour guide” for the city Create traffic rules for the future Use LEGO or STEM materials Suggested Recycled Materials Collection List Ask families to donate: Cardboard boxes Paper towel rolls Plastic containers Bottle caps Cereal boxes Egg cartons Old magazines Small cartons

Nuestros Alebrijes This project will be an opportunity for students to learn about the cultural part of alebrijes before Day of the dead.

I want a 4 week unit for 5 days a week that incorporates reading, writing, and math for a summer enrichment program to prevent the regression of 3rd grade reading, writing, and math skills. i want it to be hands-on and interesting and highly engaging. i would like lessons to work on these 3 areas without being separate lessons. lessons can be station centered, but also need to be able to be student led since there most likely will be only 1 adult. centers can be for up to 2 people with up to 6 centers. i would also like to include a related novel read aloud that would be engaging to students.

I want to create a project called "The Economics Of..." where students pick a topic of their choosing and explain what economic factors are present in that topic. They will first brainstorm which topic they want to learn more about and analyze from an economic lens. Then, using the vocabulary and concepts that they have learned this year, create a 5 minute TED Talk presentation that explains the "hidden" economics of their chosen topic.
