Votes:0 Theory: This plan is designed for average 9th grade students. This plan is broken down into one-week segments used mainly for ?Into? and ?Beyond? activities. The four-week center block is used mostly for ?Through? activities. There are myriad theories that support this unit?s individual daily activities. The overall essential theory is Vigotsky?s ?building blocks? as well as ?scaffolding? generally. Piaget?s theories also support the concept of building on a text that engages the student, then connecting it with as many other related matters, as it may be feasible to present. Time: The time for this unit is 30 class periods of 55 minutes each. Objectives: In plain words, after this unit students will be much better able to understand the nuance and the idiom of English and its connections Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Here are some of the ideas I collected to run a Harry Potter-themed Scout Encampment or Day Camp. Please email me if you have any ideas to add... Enjoy! Barb bdhunter@aol.com From Laura: My son is attending a Muggles Magic class at a local shop. He is 9 and was a bit disappointed (he had very high expectations I think) so far but they started out with a sorting hat where the kids drew a slip to see what house they are in. Then they have a bit of a workbook. There is positive feedback with points going to the houses for the House Cup -- although dealing with disappointment of being selected for Slytherin is a problem for some. They have made a magic gloop (the material from the inside of diapers (I think you can get it at gardening shops), mixed with tempera paint and water) and made a broo Read More Go to Site
