Activities+for+Students

Please use this page to find activities that might be useful in your lesson planning. **For example**: "Where in the US?" is a webinar that will allow a 5-6th grade teacher to add her class to an online session where students will try and guess what state they come from in the US based on clues given by other students/classes. Interested? Just click on the "Where in the US" link under Grades 5-6. I'll try and add descriptions as much as possible throughout the year. Feel free to add your own instructional activities. {Some grade levels have been combined to improve articulation among buildings.}
