Culture Around the World Project

I love projects! I loved them when I was a kid and even when I was in college. I really love when my students do projects too! I love their creativity and excitement!

Our social studies unit was about cultural differences, so a project was born!

SS Notebooking: Geography

I finally got around to posting the pics from our Geography unit! We did this unit end of September/beginning of October so notebooking was (and is) still new to me. I feel like I've learned so much about notebooking and how it connects with lessons since this unit and I definitely would change some things if I could reteach this. That being said, I am still so proud of the amazing work the students did! Enjoy!

Come on over a check our the notebooks!

Landforms - Vocab Graphic Organizer and Assessment

While teaching my students about landforms, I gave them this graphic to record definitions, examples, and pictures.  I created an assessment to use at the end of our unit. The assessment includes a word bank.
