It includes questions for students to consider regarding the form of government, roles and responsibilities, structure, decision-making process, laws and enforcement, and balance of power. Students are instructed to include a visual representation of the government hierarchy and 1-2 paragraphs explaining the purpose and function of the government in their project. Examples of potential visual representations and an introductory paragraph are provided. The goal is for students to fully explain their chosen government form.
Roleplay word banks
There are three main forms of government: direct democracy, representative democracy, and monarchy. Direct democracy involves citizens directly voting on policies while representative democracy involves citizens voting for representatives. A monarchy has a king or queen as head of state, with power sometimes being hereditary or limited by a constitution.
Forms of government
This document provides information about different forms of government. It discusses democracy, monarchy, theocracy, dictatorship, and transitional governments. It also covers different economic systems like capitalism, socialism, and communism. Modern governments take on roles like providing security, justice, welfare services, and education. Extreme governmental control is called totalitarianism. The document gives examples of different forms of government and economic systems around the world.
Map skills 3 -Landforms
This document discusses landforms and provides examples of different types of landforms such as peninsulas, seas, mountain ranges, volcanoes, rivers, and plateaus. It notes that landforms include both physical features on land as well as bodies of water, and that they are natural rather than man-made features or geographic areas. The document then instructs students to open their atlas and identify examples of landforms by continent to add to their map skills page.
Geo skills 2 -Parts of a Map
The document discusses the key parts of a map, including the map title, compass rose, map key or legend, inset map, locator map, and map scale. It provides details on each part, such as how a compass rose shows directions with four or eight points resembling flower petals, how a map key explains symbols used on the map, how an inset map provides a more detailed view of an area within the larger map, and how a locator map and map scale provide context and scale for the mapped information. The document concludes by asking the reader questions to test their understanding of these key parts of a map.
Geo skills 1 -Map Types
There are several main types of maps. Political maps show country borders and major cities. Topographical maps depict physical features and elevation. Thematic maps focus on a specific topic like climate, natural resources, or population. Sometimes maps can combine elements, like political and relief maps that show borders and terrain. Students are tasked with identifying map types in their atlas and the information provided.
Tag examples and guiding questions
This document provides examples of artifact tags at different proficiency levels to help guide students in writing effective tags for their artifacts. It includes examples of tags for a Sony Walkman Sport artifact that demonstrate an Emerging, Developing, Proficient, and Exemplary level of analysis. The Exemplary tag best analyzes the artifact's importance by explaining how the Walkman allowed isolated listening and changed how humans experience music from a shared to a solitary activity, representing modern isolation despite humanity's historical connection through music.
The rules
Your protagonist must be believable, you must connect with your character, and violence can only play a minor role and requires teacher approval. You must write in third person and your story cannot be revealed to be just a dream.
Map and caption mini lesson
This document provides a two-step guide for creating a map and caption that describes a city's location: Step 1 has users find and save a country map with their city, writing a 1-3 sentence caption on its relative location; Step 2 has them find and save a city map, writing a caption on its absolute location using longitude and latitude. Examples show a caption placing Manila in northern Philippines and another giving Manila's precise coordinates.
Location
The document discusses the differences between relative and absolute location. Relative location describes a place in relation to another known location, while absolute location provides precise coordinates like an address or longitude and latitude. It provides examples of using relative location by referencing nearby places, and absolute location by giving specific addresses and coordinates. The document also explains how latitude and longitude work, with latitude running east-west along parallels and longitude running north-south along meridians.
5 stades of production
This document outlines the key stages in the lifecycle of a product: extraction of raw materials, production manufacturing, distribution to consumers, consumption by end users, and eventual disposal of the product after use.
Materials economy
This document outlines the five stages of a materials economy: extraction takes natural resources from the earth like wood, coal, and water; production adds energy and chemicals to resources to make products; distribution transports and sells products; consumption involves purchasing and using products; and disposal gets rid of waste through dumping, burning, or recycling.
Possible solutions
The document outlines several possible solutions for improving sustainability, including biomimicry which models nature to solve human problems, closed loop production which reuses waste and energy rather than disposing of it, and conscious consuming where people are aware of how their purchases impact the environment. Other solutions discussed are consumer labeling to show waste production and manufacturing methods, corporate social responsibility holding businesses accountable, and cradle to cradle design where all materials used can be reused or recycled.
A better way2
The company is facing high employee turnover, accusations of a large carbon footprint, and pushback from a city against opening a new store. As a consultant, you must investigate the company's distribution system and procedures to advise them on improvements that will help lower their carbon footprint, retain employees, and contribute positively to local economies through better distribution methods and store locations.
Disposal pp
The document discusses the various options a town has for waste disposal once its current landfill is full, including building a new landfill, constructing an incineration plant to generate energy from burned trash, increasing corporate responsibility for disposal of products, and establishing a recycling depot. It outlines the pros and cons of each system and asks residents to discuss which option they would choose for the town.
