Lesson 8.3 Activity: Revising Investigation Writing - Sentence Starters Part 2Big History Project
Students have examined and revised an Investigation writing sample based on Criteria A, B, and C of the rubric. Now, they’ll undergo the same process with a peer essay. In addition, they’ll do this alone instead of in groups. So, although the process is the same as in the last Investigation writing activity, this one might be more difficult since students will move away from group work and will complete this worksheet on their own. However, it’s important for students to be able to accomplish this exercise on their own since in the next lesson, they’ll apply this same process to their own writing. Again, while the categories in the rubric are a useful tool for initially understanding the different elements of writing, they need to be looked at as a whole since the areas of focus are interrelated.

1). Integrating Black History Month into Curriculum
Nieto & Bode Chapter 1 Understanding the Sociopolitical Context of Multicultural Education
Nieto & Bode Chapter 9 Adapting Curriculum for Multicultural Classrooms
In Chapter 9, Nieto and Bode discuss curricular adaptation and provide plenty of suggestions for cultural sensitive lesson plans.
Now is your chance to create cultural sensitive lesson plans.
February is the Black History month. Every February, teachers across Texas look for effective ways to integrate Black heritage into class activities.
The addition into the curriculum of “heroes” is one of the most frequently used during the first phase of an ethnic revival movement. As variety of the contribution approach, the heroes and holidays approach uses content limited primarily to special days related to special events. Women’s month and MLK day are examples of this type celebrated in the schools. For instance, during March, when you have a chance to visit a K-12 campus, you will see plenty of posters and banners that display outstanding females. When this approach is used, the class studies little about the special groups before or after the event or occasion.
There are hundreds of ways to integrate the celebration of the Black History Month into your teaching. Go to http://www.google.com/ or your favorite search engine to find out more information about this special event by applying the criterion discussed in Chapter 6. Create an original plan to introduce the Black heritage to your class. You may use other author’s ideas, but do not copy. If you are a current classroom teacher, design the plan to fit your subject and grade level. You may use another lesson plan as a model, but do not copy from the Internet. If your plan is not original, make sure to cite the source. If you are not a current classroom teacher, design the plan as if you were teaching your favorite subject and grade level in your favorite school. Then post your plan, which must be at least 150 words, to the Discussion Board topic "Integrate Black History Month into Curriculum".
Make sure to start the posting with the subject and grade level you are interested in. For example, if I am teaching 5th grade social studies, my subject line will be “Social Studies in the 5th grade”.
If you are new to lesson plans, I have posted a Lesson Plan template used by all Urban Education professors. This is for you to become familiar with a lesson plan format. However, you do not have to include all template components in the lesson plan you construct for this assignment.
To raise your project score, make assumptions about the audience (students) are you writing this lesson plan for. If you have older students (middl.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
