Lesson Plans

Name Description
Civic Participation- Part 2:

Students will create a digital presentation using research notes from lesson 1 about a chosen service project. The digital artifact will explain their topic and how it demonstrates civility, cooperation, volunteerism, and other civic virtues. This is lesson 2 in a three-part integrated computer science and civics mini-unit.

Civic Participation- Part 1:

Students will be given a brief introduction to the terms: civility, cooperation, volunteerism, and other civic virtues. Students will conduct in-depth research to complete a guided note-taking worksheet about these topics. They will be able to determine the key ideas and details about this topic and reflect on how working in groups on this digital project brought them to their answers more efficiently. This is the first lesson in a three-part integrated computer science and civics mini-unit.

Patriot, Loyalist, or Neutral- Part 1:

In this Civics and Coding integrated lesson, students will complete research on Patriots and Loyalists from colonial times. Students will identify reasons that colonists would have chosen to be a patriot, loyalist, or neutral. This is lesson one of a three-part unit that will culminate with a student-created Scratch project.
