Which group can create the best possible classroom, using a given budget and the size constraints of the existing room? Redesign the Classroom Project lets middle schoolers work in a small group to be the architect and interior designer as they measure the existing classroom, determine what new items to purchase, and then arrange their resources into the best possible learning environment.

This project reinforces measurement, math and accuracy skills as students use their imagination and creativity. After taking the measurements, each group brainstorms what they will purchase with their budget and creates a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (or Google Sheets) to show how they will spend their money. Next, they draw their floorplan to scale (on graph paper, using Web 2.0 tools (www.floorplanner.com or www.homestyler.com ) or Sketchup (a free download available at: http://www.sketchup.com/download) and then arrange the furnishings of the room to the best advantage. Next, students combine their work into a Microsoft PowerPoint (or Google Slides) presentation to explain and showcase their choices. Finally, students reflect on their learning, both about the project and about the success of their team. Note: This lesson is intended for beginning Excel users and was created using Microsoft Excel 2016. It is easily adaptable for different versions and an earlier version template is included.

This project was created for grades 7 and 8 but would be appropriate for upper elementary or high school students as well.

This career unit gives students an introduction to the manufacturing career cluster and what a career in this field would be like. This is perfect for a career, technology, CTE or business class.

The included PowerPoint presentation can be used by the teacher for whole class instruction, or provided to the students electronically (or as a printout) for them to review individually. Students use close reading skills with a short informational passage to learn about the career field and answer questions to use critical thinking skills and demonstrate their understanding. Two different puzzles are included to learn different jobs in the career and to reinforce vocabulary skills. An individual project to research the assembly line process and creatively present that information using a technology of the student’s choice offers students an opportunity to understand the impact this invention had on manufacturing careers. Additionally, a group project to create a product package is provided to simulate the career and allow students to utilize critical thinking skills and teamwork. Finally, a short reflection questionnaire gives students the opportunity to reflect and analyze their learning as they determine if this career field is of interest to them.

The project was created for grades 7-8 but could easily be used with high school students. The teacher can choose to use some or all of the provided lesson options included in this resource.

This lesson is great for distance learning/remote learning. You can upload it to your school's learning management system (Google Classroom, Edmodo, Canvas, etc.) or share with students via Google Drive.

It is important for students to develop strong work and life skills, as these skills are essential for success in their personal and professional lives. By mastering these skills, students can become more self-sufficient and confident in their ability to manage their lives and achieve their goals. Providing a comprehensive set of resources can help students with different learning styles and abilities to engage with these concepts and develop a stronger foundation for their future success in working and living independently. The variety of products in this Life and Work Skills Bundle include Google Slides, Task Cards, Worksheets, and Boom Cards which can provide different ways for students to engage with and reinforce these skills.

In a pre-vocational or supported employment program, teaching work and life skills can provide students with hands-on experience and opportunities to practice these key skills. This type of practical training can help students gain confidence and build a strong foundation for future employment.

Incorporating work and life skills into an individualized education plan (IEP) can also help ensure that students receive the support they need to achieve their goals. This targeted instruction by incorporating work and life skills into pre-vocational/supported employment programs and IEPs is a valuable way to support student success and prepare them for the future.

This SUPER bundle centers around understanding On-The-Job/Home tools, Filling Orders, and Basic Work Skills.

NOTE:

✤The Google Slides activity is BEST assigned/presented in PRESENT mode, as this allows the students to self-check their answer and keep practicing until they get it correct!

You MUST be able to access/download/save to a Google Drive.**

✤ To Print Task Cards: The Task Cards, as downloaded, are 1/2 page which are great for students that need a larger size. To print 4x6 index card sized task cards, select "2 pages per sheet". To print 3x5 index card sized task cards, select "4 pages per sheet". These are not designed to print directly to index card template paper. What has worked best for my students was to print to on heavy duty card stock and laminate.

Boom Cards:

Included in this Bundle are access to Boom Cards that match the Google Slides Activity.

Note: To use Boom Cards, you must be connected to the Internet. Boom Cards play on modern browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge). Apps are available for modern Android, iPads, iPhones, and Kindle Fires. For security and privacy, adults must have a Boom Learning account to use and assign Boom Cards. You will be able to assign the Boom Cards you are buying with "Fast Pins," (a form of play that gives instant feedback to students for self-grading Boom Cards).
