Lesson Plans

Rules and Laws: Then and Now:

The purpose of this lesson is for students to explain the difference between rules and laws and the purpose of rules and laws in the home, school, and community while being able to explain how rules affect their daily lives. Students will compare rules and laws now with rules and laws from the past to be able to compare and contrast two texts on the same topic.

Looking for Lincoln Throughout His Life:

In this interdisciplinary lesson by PBS Learning Media, students will participate in a variety of hands-on activities to gather facts about Abraham Lincoln. Students will match vocabulary words with pictures to piece together a timeline of Lincoln's life, gather various facts about his work as a lawyer on the prairie, and also gain insight into Lincoln through objects and artifacts of his life. Students will then select classroom objects that best tell a story about them and/or their class, later reflecting upon the timeline of Lincoln's life while creating their own personal timelines.
