Explorers (Cp, PM)
How to Use the <b>Explorers - Common Core Lessons and Activities</b> book:<br />- Work through the lessons and activities as a class to teach your students higher-order thinking, analysis, and 21st century skills necessary to meet new Common Core expectations. <br />- Allow students to work through the lessons independently to build and practice these new skills. <br />- Include technology, collaboration, presentations, and discussion in the activities as you desire - you can decide how in-depth to go. <br />- Watch your class develop new abilities to meet the rigor of Common Core State Standards, right before your eyes! <br /><br />Tips: <br />- Use some of the pages - or use them all - based on your grade, your students, your curriculum, and your needs. <br />- Use these pages at their current size, or if you prefer them to be 8.5" X 11", enlarge them 125% on your copy machine. <br />- Use the correlations grid to easily see which Common Core standards are covered in each lesson. <br /><br />The <b>Explorers - Common Core Lessons and Activities </b> includes: <br />- Reading for Information<br />- Higher-Order Thinking<br />- Writing Problems<br />- Primary Source Analysis<br />- Vocabulary<br />- Graphic Organizers<br />- Map Activities<br />- & More!
