Medieval History Lesson

I have to do a lesson plan for students using the book Bunny Money by Rosemary Wells I can choose between 6th grade and 4th Grade! I have a few ideas just checking to see if any teachers out there have used this book and would have some good lesson plan ideas!

If you have read the book and understand its concept, then my advice is to simply work a lesson plan around the "moral" of the story, what the author is trying to convey to its young readers, and that is what money is and how to use it. You can include in your lesson plan the cut out bunny money and have them "trade" for goods. Good luck.

Hello. I am needing a good Powerpoint lesson plan that will be able to last 4 days (They will be working on it for 1 hour a day). I am a senior in high school and we need to think of a project to have my other classmates do. If you have any ideas please let me know.

A Lesson plan about powerpoint, or a plan that uses powerpoint? If it’s using powerpoint, then what are you trying to make it about? Anything? Unless you have some subject matter in hand, what can we give you?

For example this lesson plan says duration is 2 weeks (180 hours + 3 hours of home work) to teach amphibians for grade 6. Five students are reading below grade level and one student is withdrawn. I don’t live in the States but isn’t the time allotted to teach is a max. of 45-60 mins. ( 3 times a week).

Your unit plan would be for the two weeks. You lesson plan would be for what you would do on one day. So you would need six individual lesson plans for you to finish the one unit in two weeks.

im going to be interning for a second grade class.
the lesson plan is basically a "getting to know you" lesson. i tell them about me and they have to do something for me to be able to get to know them as well. i just need some cute ideas that would make the lesson enjoyable and not bore them to death.

This is what you want to look at, avoid listening to anyone who shoots you down or doesn’t understand your question:

I’m looking for a short story about a journey for a middle school lesson plan, grades 7-8. The journey could be physical, emotional, psychological, etc. The author should ideally be a minority (any non-white male).

Thanks!

Jack London is still appropriate for middle school…

or James Oliver Curwood

While these authors are white, they have many ethnic characters and write from personal experience

I have to do a lesson plan on summary for 4th grade annyone have a link to a good lesson plan or suggestions?

Don’t have a link for you, but I do have a couple of suggestions. I teach summary by teaching the BME method. Of course, this is only a test-taking strategy, but it does work. Basically, a good summary includes something from the Beginning, the Middle, and the End of a story or passage (don’t forget that summary needs to be applied to both fictional and non-fictional passages). I have also taught the hand method, and this might be really fun for 4th graders. Basically, you answer several questions about a passage, story, or even paragraph - who, did what, when and where, how, and why. Get the kids to trace their hands on a piece of blank paper. Answer each question above for each finger: who is the story or passage about - put it in the thumb, what did this person do - put in the index finger, when and where (basically your setting) - put in the middle finger, how did they do it (if applicable, sometimes it doesn’t work) - put in the ring finger, and how did they do it - put in the pinky. Then take the information and write a sentence or two in the palm of the hand - BAM! Summary.

I have to make a lesson plan for elementary children involving food for my Children’s Health and Nutrition class. This lesson has to involve a food beginning with either an A or an I because those are my initials. When I first heard I had to do a lesson plan I automatically thought of a lesson I had come up with for a another class last year that I just drew out and never actually made. The lesson that I had chosen was to do fractions because at the time I was shadowing a 3rd class and that was what they were learning so I decided to choose this topic. I am going to have a fridge where the children take out apple pies that are cut into fractions and place the pie above the correct fraction. The problem is someone in my class already did a lesson on fractions and had an apple pie as one of the fractions. I don’t want it to look like I copied her and don’t want points taken off cause the teacher does not think it is orginal. Should I stick with the lesson I have or make a new one?

Make a new one.

Use ICE and make a lesson about water and its properties:
It makes river valleys (erosion)
It floods people’s homes in storm time
It washes our dishes, hands bodies
It nourishes us (better that coke and pepsi)
It is home for fish

Need I go on??

Hello. I am desperate in need of help. I’m doing a project for early childhood education. I have to create a lesson plan on what makes us grow for about 15 kids. Can anyone give me any ideas on how to do this. I would greatly appreciate it.

I would use the following units:
~All About Me (focus on our body parts and do some measuring as in height, foot and hand length, briefly touch on the subject of bones and how they help us)
~Being Healthy (focus on eating healthy foods to make you strong, keeping ourselves healthy by washing our hands, brushing teeth, and taking baths.)

Projects:
Draw a skeleton and have the children glue on q-tips for bones.

Practice brushing teeth, talk about your teeth and how its important to eat good foods and keep your teeth healthy. Discuss the dentist
Paint a manilla colored tooth white with paint and toothbrushes.

Talk about healthy and unhealthy foods. Have children look at grocery ads and cut and sort pictures of food into the correct catagory. (By food groups/healthy and unhealthy)

Have the children create their own germs with various shapes of colored paper. Have them name their germ and explain how to keep that germ away. (washing hands, taking baths, brushing teeth etc)

Just a few ideas…hope they help! Happy New Year!

I have to talk to the class about differences between Pride and Prejudice, the movie and the book(differences between the two.I have to be alone in front of the class talking about it. I wanted to bring candy and hand them to students who volunteer to share the differences b/w the novel/movie. But I need a really great/ fun lesson plan to teach my fellow peers. Any ideas to get all the students involved??? Interactive ideas? Anything creative?

Act out a scene in the movie or book? Try to get them to have a small debate on a topic or do some theory work on what might have happened if the story if it went the other way and how it would have an impact on the story itself or the book or whatever else.

For a project for grad school, I need to make a copy of an elementary teacher’s 5 day lesson plan for reading or language arts class.

You need to find a curriculum such as Scott Foresman that has a sample schedule in it.
