In this lesson, the students will be given time to create their own understandings about the parts of plants as they explore plants hands-on in the outdoor classroom.

Using prior knowledge, students explain their observations and understanding of various plant's external parts and how they help the plant survive in its environment.

In this lesson, students will explain their observations and understanding of various plant's external parts and how they help the plant survive in its environment.

Students will use knowledge of life cycles to collect evidence of the stages of life a plant goes through.

Students will use knowledge of life cycles to collect evidence of the stages of life a plant goes through.

Students evaluate the impact of sensory language and figurative language in poetry, and determine the overall meaning of the poem using the outdoor classroom as a context for their writing.

In this lesson, students will understand that everybody is a writer, that writing is a tool for communication, and that it is an ongoing process.Students will create a beginning writing piece that could be made into a class book

In this activity, students will create shadows and using this evidence they will write a scientific claim using evidence.

Students will determine a rule for classifying outdoor objects based on physical properties of matter.

Students will determine a rule for classifying outdoor objects based on physicalproperties of matter.

Students will use their knowledge of operations and estimation to solve real world problems.

Students will make it a regular practice to record weather data using thermometers, wind vanes and rain gauges.

Building upon their understanding of forces and Newton's laws of motion, students learn about the force of friction, specifically with respect to cars. They explore the friction between tires and the road to learn how it affects the movement of cars while driving. In an associated literacy activity, students explore the theme of conflict in literature, and the difference between internal and external conflict, and various types of conflicts. Stories are used to discuss methods of managing and resolving conflict and interpersonal friction.

This Remote Learning Plan was created by Candace Thompson in collaboration with Nick Ziegler as part of the 2019-20 ESU-NDE Digital Age Pedagogy Project. Educators worked with coaches to create Remote Learning Plans as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.  The attached Remote Learning Plan is designed for kindergarten students in a Technology class. Students will identify the location of all letter keys on a keyboard.

This Remote Learning Plan was created by Taylor Shepard in collaboration with Andrew Easton as part of the 2020 ESU-NDE Remote Learning Plan Project. Educators worked with coaches to create Remote Learning Plans as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.The attached Remote Learning Plan is designed for 9-12 Geometry students. Students will find missing lengths of chords, tangent lines, and secant lines. This Remote Learning Plan addresses the following NDE Standard: MA 11.3.1.f It is expected that this Remote Learning Plan will take students 60 minutes to complete. Here is the direct link to the Google Doc:https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1BmgvbdZ447E8sUaSVzDVKX1SpMOCt5Dm6vY41jQbrJY/edit?usp=sharing

Students will use their knowledge of earth's natural resources to identify resources in the outdoor classroom and classify these resources as either renewable or non-renewable.

In this lesson, students learn about major landforms (e.g., mountains, rivers, plains, valleys, canyons and plateaus) and how they occur on the Earth's surface. They learn about the civil and geotechnical engineering applications of geology and landforms, including the design of transportation systems, mining, mapping and measuring natural hazards.

Students will explore the components of soil and make a model of sedimentary rock layers and fossil fuels.

Through the study of primary sources, students will gain insight into the Senate procedures of filibuster and cloture. They will do so by studying an historic example - the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. 

Students will identify and compare attributes of two-dimensional and three- dimensional shapes in the world around them.
