This is a fun and musical way to discuss a tough subject on plate boundaries around the African Rift Valley. It sits along a divergent boundary where the Somali Plate and African Plate are drifting apart. In millions of years, this could cause not only East Africa to become a new small continent, but would create a new ocean.

This lesson incorporates music as a learning tool. Students will enjoy the new rendition of the song Breaking Up is Hard to Do. It is a love song from West Africa to the East African Rift Valley. An MP3 of the song is included in this lesson.

OBJECTIVES:

1. The learner will listen to and analyze the song.
2. The learner will understand how physical processes shape patterns in the physical environment specific to tectonic forces.
3. The learner will describe different landforms such as trenches and lakes near Africa’s Great Rift Valley and the physical processes that cause their development.

LESSON INCLUDES:

• Detailed teacher instructions
• Suggesting videos (Not mandatory for lesson)
• Lyrics to song sheet
• Song analysis + teacher answer sheet.

This rubric looks at 5 different areas when students are being assessed on writing a story. The areas that are reviewed on the rubric are as follows: the story outline relates with the graphic organizer, all parts of the story are written in sequential order, staying on task, grammar/punctuation/spelling, and working with others. This rubric scores the story writing assignment out of 15 possible points. The rating scale use is a 3, 2, 1, & 0.

By the end of the year, both students and their teachers are tired, plum tuckered out. So there’s no surprise that none of the above entities want to continue the daily grind, the regular set of assignments and wouldn’t mind changing the interactions with each other.

This Check In, Check Out (CICO) Weekly Logs product is perfect for implementing CICO in your classroom. This is a program used for behavior management & tracking and can be extremely helpful for students and educators. This weekly log is easy to use and ideal for creating goals, charting progress, and sharing student data with parents. It includes two main versions with smiley faces for lower elementary and a point system for upper elementary. It also includes different styles of tracking such as pre-made goals or an area to add in your own goals, filled-in daily blocks and a blank, and finally a pre-made daily schedule or a blank to fill in. Lastly, it includes a parent information sheet to send home in tandem with the CICO logs so parents can have a better understanding of the program. It comes in a .zip folder with a PDF version and an editable PPT version.

This is a great project for APES or Biology! I used it for both, but for Biology I made some of the last tasks optional and changed some of the upper tasks to weigh a little bit more to balance it out to 100%. It includes the rubric, which is a checklist for the students and also for your grading convenience!

The students love it! It can be done individually or in pairs. It can be a gallery walk or presented to the class. I hope you and your students enjoy!

Here are the instructions: You will research a biome that you select from the proposed list. While researching your biome, you will learn about commonalities, locations, community interactions within it, and look at any environmental issues associated with the biome. The final part of your project will be a free-standing display on a poster board of all the information you gathered and you will be prepared to present this information to the class. Below is a rubric showing the research required for your display, and their point value. You will be presenting this to the class!

Do not simply “cut & paste” your information! It must be your own writing. Failure to use your own work is plagiarism!

Administrators always say to put the tracking in the student's hands, make sure you are keeping data, and never offer ways to help you do these! Well, that's where I come in!

Plus this is also a great tracker for PLC's to ensure all students are learning the content you are on the same page. This has made our team meetings go SO much smoother! This is my favorite tool in my classroom. It does come in both English and Spanish

Students will track themselves unit by unit & by standard by standard with the use of "I can" statements.

Instructions: Step By Step

1. Find the unit we are in right now.

2. Based on the work we have done thus far, please put an x in the box that best describes your knowledge of the "I can" statement.

3. Be sure to revisit this before your test to ensure that You've Got This Down! This is what the Civics team is creating your test off of. If you can move yourself to the final column of "Yes, I can." Then you should score 80% or higher on the test. I will be checking on these :)

4. If you get assigned to an intervention. You will need to edit this on the last day of that cycle
