Under President Johnson, US involvement in Vietnam escalated through bombing campaigns and increasing troop levels despite doubts about winning. The 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident led to greater war powers for Johnson. The 1968 Tet Offensive saw major attacks on South Vietnamese cities and turned US public opinion against the war. Protests against the war grew larger along with revelations of atrocities like the My Lai massacre. The draft system led many American men to avoid service or flee to Canada to avoid fighting in Vietnam.

VIETNAM WAR - 11. THE TET OFFENSIVE
In January 1968, over 70,000 Communist soldiers launched the Tet Offensive, a surprise attack on South Vietnam in over 100 cities and towns. Though US and South Vietnamese forces managed to repel the attacks, the offensive shocked the American public and eroded support for the war as news coverage showed the extent of the fighting. While the North suffered heavy casualties, the Tet Offensive marked a turning point as it demonstrated the Communists' strength and undermined claims of US military success, leading President Johnson to de-escalate American involvement and not seek re-election that year.

France controlled Vietnam until the 1940s when Japan took over during World War II. After the war, France tried to reassert control but lost to Ho Chi Minh's Viet Minh forces in 1954. The United States initially provided aid to France and later directly intervened in the Vietnam War, escalating troop levels significantly under President Lyndon Johnson after the Gulf of Tonkin Incident. Despite massive bombing campaigns and half a million troops deployed at the war's peak, the U.S. struggled against Vietnamese guerrilla warfare and growing domestic opposition. The Tet Offensive in 1968 was a major military defeat but psychological victory for North Vietnam. Peace negotiations began in Paris in 1968 as the U.S. pursued a Vietnamization
Korean and Vietnam War
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, testing Truman's policy of containment against the spread of communism. The United Nations authorized troops to defend South Korea led by General MacArthur. MacArthur's surprise attack at Inchon was a turning point that forced North Korean retreat. However, China later entered the war on North Korea's side, pushing UN forces back until a ceasefire in 1953 left the border along the 38th parallel. The Vietnam War began as resistance to French colonial rule, with the US backing France until their defeat in 1954. This divided Vietnam along the 17th parallel, with communist North Vietnam led by Ho Chi Minh and US-backed South Vietnam led by Diem. However, the
Korean and Vietnam War Presentation
Outlines the need-to-knows of these significant conflicts. I do not own the rights to the pictures but I researched and wrote the text as well as assembling it for a lecture in my Cold War class.
The Korean War
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea in an attempt to reunify the Korean Peninsula under Communist rule. The US intervened on behalf of South Korea to prevent the spread of communism. After initial success pushing North Korea back, China entered the war in support of North Korea. The war eventually reached a stalemate and an armistice was signed in 1953, dividing Korea along the original 38th parallel border. The Korean War was a proxy conflict in the early Cold War between the US and Soviet-backed forces.

Koreanwar
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, capturing Seoul and much of the South quickly. UN forces led by the US intervened and pushed the North Koreans back to the Pusan Perimeter. General MacArthur then launched an amphibious invasion at Inchon, cutting North Korean supply lines and allowing UN forces to drive north. When China entered the war in late 1950, UN forces were pushed back south. Fighting eventually stabilized along the original border, leading to an armistice in 1953 that divided Korea along the 38th parallel. The war resulted in over 1 million casualties between all sides.
The tet offensive
The Tet Offensive was a major military campaign conducted during January-February 1968 by the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese People's Army of Vietnam against South Vietnam, the United States, and their allies. It involved surprise attacks against major cities and towns across South Vietnam, including Saigon. Militarily, the offensive was a catastrophic failure for the Viet Cong and North Vietnam, as they suffered heavy losses. However, it had important political and psychological effects, undermining support for the war in the United States by contradicting claims by the Johnson administration that the end of the war was in sight. It marked a major turning point in the Vietnam War.

The document summarizes the events surrounding the My Lai Massacre during the Vietnam War and the impact it had on public support for the war in the US. In March 1968, US soldiers from Charlie Company massacred approximately 400 Vietnamese civilians in My Lai village, finding no Viet Cong soldiers. The massacre was initially covered up but was later exposed by Ronald Ridenhour, who sent letters to politicians about war crimes. Photos published in Life magazine further revealed the atrocities. Lieutenant William Calley was ultimately found guilty of 22 counts of murder for his role in the massacre. The exposure of the massacre deeply shocked the American public and undermined support for the war, fueling large anti-war protests.
Us involvement in vietnam
The Vietnam War was the longest war in U.S. history, lasting over 20 years. More than 58,000 American soldiers were killed and over 300,000 were wounded. The war was deeply unpopular with the American public, with over 50% unable to explain the reasons for U.S. involvement. The war resulted in over 1.5 million deaths in Vietnam and caused lasting psychological and physical impacts on many American veterans.

Cold war ppt from web.
The document summarizes the origins and key events of the Cold War between the United States and Soviet Union from 1945-1953. After being allies in WWII, political and ideological differences grew between the capitalist US and communist USSR, plunging them into a state of tension and rivalry known as the Cold War. The Soviets set up communist governments in Eastern Europe, while the US sought to contain the spread of communism through policies like the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan. This division of Europe and clashes over issues like the Berlin Blockade and Korean War marked increased hostility between the two superpowers.

It also lists the top 5 deadliest battles of the war and some interesting facts about dog tags and Civil War firsts. Additionally, it discusses Abraham Lincoln's issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, which declared the freedom of slaves in the Confederate states.
Vietnam war 2
The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution passed in 1964 authorized the bombing of North Vietnam which began in 1965. The first US ground troops arrived in South Vietnam also in 1965. Guerilla tactics made the Viet Cong difficult to identify as enemies. In 1968 during Lunar New Year ceasefire, the North Vietnamese launched surprise attacks shocking US forces. The My Lai Massacre in 1968 involved the killing of hundreds of South Vietnamese civilians by US soldiers and increased global outrage against the war. Peace talks began in Paris in 1968 but stalled, and the US began withdrawing troops under Nixon and a peace agreement was reached in 1973, though fighting continued until South Vietnam fell to the North in 1975.
The Taliban in Afghanistan/ US withdrawal from Afghanistan
The US spent $2.26 trillion in Afghanistan since 2001 but the country still has a small economy with 90% living on less than $2 per day. In August 2021, US troops began withdrawing and the last soldier left on September 15th, resulting in the fall of the US-backed Afghan government. Afghanistan has been conquered by various empires throughout history but never fully controlled, earning it the name "graveyard of empires." The country has a long history of being invaded and is strategically located between larger empires like Russia and Britain.
VIETNAM WAR - 10. GULF OF TONKIN INCIDENT
The Gulf of Tonkin incident involved alleged attacks by North Vietnamese torpedo boats on US ships in the Gulf of Tonkin in 1964. This gave President Johnson the justification to escalate US military involvement in Vietnam. Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, allowing Johnson to take any measures seen as necessary to retaliate and prevent further attacks. While at least one attack occurred, the second attack claimed was likely non-existent, but it convinced Congress and increased public support for Johnson's stance against communism in Vietnam. This paved the way for large-scale US bombing of North Vietnam and military escalation.
Fall of communism in Eastern Europe
The fall of communism in Eastern Europe began with reforms initiated by Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in the 1980s. Gorbachev's policies of glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring) gave citizens in Eastern Bloc nations more freedom and led them to push for democratic reforms. Nations like Poland, Hungary, East Germany, and Czechoslovakia held free elections and peacefully overthrew their communist governments in 1989. Romania's transition was more violent, with dictator Nicolae Ceausescu being overthrown and executed that same year. By 1990, communism had collapsed across Eastern Europe.
Korean War
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korean troops invaded South Korea, crossing the 38th parallel border between the two countries. In response, United Nations forces led by the United States launched a counterattack and pushed the North Korean army back above the 38th parallel. However, Chinese troops then entered the war on the side of North Korea and drove UN forces back south. Fighting continued back and forth across the parallel until an armistice was signed in 1953, leaving Korea still divided along the 38th parallel between the communist North and non-communist South. Over 10 million people died during the three-year Korean War.
Containing communism in korea
After WWII, the US and USSR emerged as superpowers with opposing ideologies - capitalism and communism. The USSR established communist governments in Eastern Europe and drew an "Iron Curtain" across Europe. In response, the US developed a containment policy to resist Soviet expansion and provided economic aid to Western Europe through programs like the Marshall Plan. These actions increased tensions and fears of communism during the early Cold War period.
Vietnam
The document provides a history of Vietnam from the 1800s to 1975, starting with Vietnam as a French colony. It then discusses Vietnam gaining independence after World War 2 but being divided into North and South Vietnam in 1954. The US became increasingly involved in supporting South Vietnam through sending advisors and troops to fight the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces. Despite some military successes, widespread anti-war protests emerged in the US as the conflict became increasingly unpopular. US involvement ended in 1973 but South Vietnam fell to communist forces in 1975.
Vietnam Grp P Point
1) The Vietnam War was dubbed "The Television War" as it was the first war to have extensive television coverage with very little censorship.
2) News crews filmed on location in Vietnam and relied on the military for transportation, which gave officials influence over the footage that was broadcast.
3) As the war dragged on, television coverage began to include more graphic images of dead and wounded soldiers, as well as interviews that conveyed a sense of low morale, which may have contributed to declining public support for the war in the US.
The Vietnam War
The Vietnam War lasted from 1950-1975 between North Vietnam supported by China and the Soviet Union against South Vietnam supported by the United States. Key events included the division of Vietnam along the 17th parallel in 1954, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution that escalated US involvement, and the Tet Offensive that turned US public opinion against the war. Tactics like search and destroy bombings, use of napalm and agent orange took a toll on Vietnamese civilians and the environment. Protests against the war within the US grew until the US withdrawal was completed in 1973, ending in the fall of Saigon to communist forces in 1975.
Korean War
The Korean War began in June 1950 when troops from North Korea invaded South Korea in an attempt to reunify the Korean peninsula under Communist rule. The United States led United Nations forces to defend South Korea from the invasion. After initial success pushing the North Koreans back, China entered the war to support North Korea, and fighting became stalemated near the original border. An armistice in 1953 established a demilitarized zone at the 38th parallel, dividing the Korean peninsula much as it had been after World War II.
United States History Ch. 20 Section 1 Notes
The United States became involved in Vietnam for several reasons: to support its ally France in fighting communism, to prevent the spread of communism according to the Domino Theory, and to defend an anti-communist South Vietnamese government. Despite aid from the US, France was defeated by Vietnamese independence forces at Dien Bien Phu in 1954. The US increased its involvement over the following decade through sending advisors to South Vietnam, and the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution of 1964 granted President Johnson broad war powers without a declaration of war, enabling the escalation of US troops in Vietnam.
Korea ppt-korean war
The document provides background information on the Korean War which occurred from 1950-1953. It discusses how Korea was divided after World War 2 along the 38th parallel with the Soviet Union occupying the north and the United States occupying the south. Tensions grew between the U.S. and USSR in the early Cold War period, contributing to conflicts like the Korean War. The war began when North Korea invaded South Korea in 1950, drawing in U.S. forces fighting under a U.N. mandate to defend the south. While an armistice was signed in 1953, the issues dividing North and South Korea remained unresolved.
Vietnam conflict day 5
The document summarizes several anti-war organizations that formed in response to the Vietnam War between the 1960s and 1970s. It describes their origins, purpose, membership, and tactics. Key groups included Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) which organized large protests and teach-ins on college campuses, the Black Panther Party which advocated for racial equality and revolutionary socialism, and the Resistance which encouraged men to refuse the draft and burn their cards. Ultimately, most groups like SDS and SNCC disbanded due to internal disputes or pressure from authorities as the war ended and opposition declined.
The vietnam conflict2shortvers
The document provides an overview of the Vietnam War between 1950-1975. It summarizes the key events, people, and outcomes of the war. The United States aimed to prevent the spread of communism in Southeast Asia, while North Vietnam sought to unite Vietnam under communist rule. After initial US support for South Vietnam, the US gradually escalated its involvement until directly engaging in combat operations. Despite massive bombing campaigns and troop increases, the US was unable to defeat the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces. Growing domestic opposition to the war led to the US withdrawal and the eventual communist takeover of South Vietnam in 1975.

United States History Ch. 20 Section 3 Notes
The Vietnam War deeply divided American society. As the war dragged on with no clear victory, opposition to the war grew on college campuses and beyond. The Tet Offensive of 1968 shocked many Americans and increased doubts about the war. In the 1968 presidential election, anti-war Democrats Eugene McCarthy and Robert Kennedy challenged Lyndon Johnson, who chose not to run for re-election. Ultimately, Republican Richard Nixon was elected by appealing to those not protesting the war.
United States History Ch. 20 Section 4 Notes
1. Nixon withdrew U.S. troops from Vietnam under a policy of Vietnamization, secretly bombing Cambodia. Protests against the war escalated, with the killing of students at Kent State.
2. The Paris Peace Accords were signed in 1973, establishing a ceasefire but leaving North Vietnamese troops in the South. South Vietnam fell to the communists in 1975.
3. The Vietnam War had lasting impacts on America, including over 58,000 U.S. deaths, loss of trust in leaders, and reluctance to intervene abroad.
Ush ch. 22 section 3 notes
Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter had differing foreign policies toward the Soviet Union and developing world. Ford continued détente and signed SALT II and Helsinki Accords. Carter initially continued this approach but imposed sanctions on the Soviet Union after its invasion of Afghanistan. Carter shifted US policy to focus on human rights, stopping aid to countries violating them and returning the Panama Canal. Carter achieved the Camp David Accords but failed to secure hostage release from Iran, demonstrating foreign policy challenges beyond the Soviet Union.
Ush ch. 24 section 5 notes
As the document begins, it notes that at the turn of the 21st century, American society was changing and facing new challenges compared to the previous century. Immigration policies were relaxed through laws like the Immigration Act of 1990, leading to a large influx of over 1 million new immigrants annually, most from Latin America and Asia. This changing demographic landscape was increasingly diverse but also debated issues like bilingual education and illegal immigration. Additionally, factors like divorce becoming more common, women increasingly working, and debates around topics like affirmative action, standardized testing in schools, and reforms to Social Security showed how American society was being transformed at the century's start.
United States History Ch.17 Section 1 Notes
1. After WWII, the US economy boomed due to increased demand for consumer goods, the GI Bill helping veterans find work and education, and a postwar baby boom increasing the population.
2. Presidents Truman and Eisenhower presided over this period of economic growth, though Truman faced challenges from inflation and labor unrest.
3. Eisenhower continued the prosperous economy and initiated programs for infrastructure and education, making his presidency very stable.
Final review
The document appears to be a review guide for a US History class from 1965 to 2015. It contains multiple choice and short answer questions about various topics covered during that time period, including the Nixon and Reagan presidencies, the 1970s divorce rate, the Camp David Accords, the Mariel boatlift, the Taliban being removed from power in Afghanistan after the US invasion, and trends in modern immigration to the US. The review guide is intended to help students prepare for a final exam on US History from 1965 to 2015.
United States History Ch. 17 Section 4 Notes
Critics rejected the conformity of 1950s culture, expressed by writers like Kerouac and Ginsberg. Many Americans lived in poverty hidden from the suburbs, including in inner cities and rural areas. Minority groups faced discrimination in housing and jobs. Government programs aimed to address urban and rural poverty, but sometimes made the problems worse by displacing communities and concentrating poverty.
United States History Ch. 17 Section 2 Notes
The document summarizes key social, economic, and educational changes in postwar America during the 1950s. It describes the rise of suburbs and "Sunbelt" states in the South and Southwest, fueled by government programs that enabled homeownership and the construction of the interstate highway system. It also outlines the shift to a service-based economy and growth of new industries, as well as changes in education access and the integration of schools following the Brown v. Board of Education ruling.
United States History Ch. 18 Section 2 Notes
Student activists engaged in sit-ins and freedom rides to protest segregation, gaining the support of organizations like SNCC and attracting the opposition of segregationists. The violent protests in Birmingham and the March on Washington put pressure on Kennedy to propose civil rights legislation. The bill faced resistance through an 80-day filibuster, but passed after Johnson became president, and was signed in 1964 as the Civil Rights Act, banning segregation and discrimination.
United States History Ch. 18 Section 1 Notes
The document summarizes early efforts for equality in the 1940s-1950s. It discusses how African Americans challenged segregation through legal and protest efforts such as the Montgomery bus boycott. The Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision declared segregation in public schools unconstitutional, though it faced resistance from Southern states. The Montgomery bus boycott launched Martin Luther King Jr. and the civil rights movement by proving that nonviolent protests could successfully demand change. However, segregation and discrimination remained widespread even after these early victories.
US History Ch. 18 Section 3 Notes
Freedom Summer in 1964 saw over 1,000 volunteers help register African American voters in Mississippi, though 3 volunteers were murdered. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was passed, banning literacy tests and allowing federal oversight of elections. However, discrimination and poverty still plagued urban areas, leading to riots in cities like Watts, Newark, and Detroit in 1967. Meanwhile, leaders like Malcolm X and the Black Panthers advocated for more militant approaches than King's nonviolence.

Vietnam guide
1. The United States initially got involved in Vietnam to contain the spread of communism according to the Domino Theory and policy of containment. They supported France in fighting the Viet Minh and later the South Vietnamese government against the Viet Cong.
2. After the French defeat at Dien Bien Phu in 1954, Vietnam was divided and elections were to reunite the country but the US feared communism would spread so they increased support for South Vietnam.
3. US involvement escalated throughout the 1960s despite growing opposition until all US troops left Vietnam in 1973 after failed policy of Vietnamization showed South Vietnam could not stand on its own against the North.
Us involvement in the vietnam war 1
The US involvement in the Vietnam War can be divided into 3 stages:
1. 1945-1964: Initial assistance to France and South Vietnam against communist forces.
2. 1964-1968: Escalation under President Johnson, with troop levels rising from 15,000 to 500,000. Intensified bombing and fighting failed to defeat North Vietnam.
3. 1969-1973: Nixon's Vietnamization policy attempted to transition fighting to South Vietnamese forces and reduce US troops, culminating in the 1973 Paris Peace Accords. However, South Vietnam ultimately fell to communist forces in 1975.

The US involvement in the Vietnam War can be divided into 3 stages:
1) 1945-1964 where the US assisted France and later South Vietnam
2) 1964-1968 saw escalation under President Johnson as US troops grew from 15,000 to 500,000
3) 1969-1973 was Nixon's Vietnamization strategy which aimed to gradually withdraw US troops while strengthening South Vietnam.
Lbj and vietnam
LBJ greatly expanded social programs under the Great Society but became bogged down in the Vietnam War. He escalated US involvement despite growing domestic opposition. By 1968 the Tet Offensive showed the war was unwinnable, leading LBJ to not seek re-election. The war deeply divided the US and eroded trust in government. It ended in 1975 with a communist victory in Vietnam after the US withdrew.
5th Year History - Vietnam.ppt us history
The Tonkin Incident of 1964 involved two alleged attacks by North Vietnamese boats on US ships in the Gulf of Tonkin. While most evidence later suggested the US was not actually fired upon, this gave President Johnson justification to escalate US involvement in Vietnam. He obtained the Tonkin Gulf Resolution from Congress, allowing him to take all necessary steps, including military force, to respond to Communist aggression in Southeast Asia. In 1965, the US began Operation Rolling Thunder, a massive bombing campaign of North Vietnam intended to force its withdrawal of support for the Vietcong in the South. However, through resilient guerrilla tactics like hiding industries underground and rapidly repairing supply lines, North Vietnam was able to withstand the bombing and continue aiding the

Vietnam Good Best
The document provides background on the Vietnam War between the North and South from the 1940s-1975. It describes the key events and escalations of US involvement over time, from advisors to ground troops. The Tet Offensive in 1968 was a major turning point, as it showed the war was not going as well as the US claimed and eroded public support. Protests against the war grew significantly in the late 1960s. The war finally ended in 1973 with a peace treaty though fighting resumed until South Vietnam fell in 1975.
Vietnam war
The Vietnam War lasted from 1954 to 1975 and involved military engagement between North Vietnam and South Vietnam, with the United States backing South Vietnam. France had previously controlled Vietnam but withdrew after their defeat at Dien Bien Phu in 1954. This led to Vietnam being divided along the 17th parallel, with communist North Vietnam controlling the north and US-backed South Vietnam controlling the south. Tensions rose and the US became increasingly involved, sending military advisors to support South Vietnam against North Vietnam and communist Viet Cong forces in the south. Major events of the war included the Gulf of Tonkin incident leading to increased US bombing of North Vietnam, the Tet Offensive of 1968, and the fall of Saigon in 1975 when North Vietnam defeated

The document provides an overview of the Vietnam War, including key statistics and events. It discusses the public opinion of the war in the US, the escalating US involvement over multiple presidential administrations, and major battles like the Tet Offensive and My Lai Massacre. It also covers the anti-war movement in the US and protests on college campuses against US involvement in Vietnam.
Vietnam War
The Vietnam War began as a conflict between North Vietnam and South Vietnam following France's withdrawal from Indochina in 1954. The US initially provided support to South Vietnam but gradually increased its involvement, sending combat troops and heavily bombing North Vietnam. However, the Tet Offensive in 1968 showed the war was not going well for the US. Growing anti-war sentiment led Johnson to withdraw from reelection. Nixon continued the war but also began withdrawing troops. A ceasefire was signed in 1973, and South Vietnam fell to the communists in 1975, ending the war. The human and financial costs for the US and Vietnam were immense.
JFK, LBJ, and Vietnam, c. 1960-1973.pdf
JFK initially sent advisors to South Vietnam and increased troops to 16,000 to contain communism under the domino theory. LBJ significantly escalated US involvement through bombing campaigns and sending 500,000 ground troops, seeking to avoid another China. However, the Tet Offensive in 1968 turned US public opinion against the war, and massive protests erupted. Nixon continued bombing but started withdrawing troops and Vietnamizing the war. The US withdrew in 1973 after failed peace negotiations, and South Vietnam fell to communism in 1975. The war cost 58,000 US lives and over 3 million Vietnamese deaths but failed to achieve US objectives.
Vietnam Nixon
The document discusses several key events and strategies around ending the Vietnam War. It describes Nixon's "Peace with Honor" approach of withdrawing troops over 14 phases between 1968 and 1972. It also mentions escalated bombing of Cambodia and the leaking of the Pentagon Papers, which detailed government deception about the war. The war was not ending as most Americans hoped, with bombing and involvement in other countries increasing.
Tet 1968
The Tet Offensive began in January 1968 when 84,000 Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army troops launched surprise attacks against South Vietnamese cities and towns, hoping to spark uprising. Though the attacks were repelled, the offensive shocked most Americans by contradicting U.S. claims of military progress. Iconic images of the war brought its violence home and eroded public support, prompting Walter Cronkite to declare the war a stalemate. As anti-war protests grew, political pressure mounted and led President Johnson to withdraw from reelection and begin peace negotiations. While a military failure for Hanoi, Tet was seen as a turning point that ended America's will to continue fighting in Vietnam.

Research paper
The Vietnam War was a significant event in American history that sparked widespread protests. The Viet Cong relied on the Ho Chi Minh Trail to transport supplies through jungles and tunnels to evade American forces. The U.S. used helicopters and defoliating chemicals like Agent Orange to fight back. Major political figures like presidents Johnson and Nixon escalated U.S. involvement, while protests against the war grew due to events like the Kent State shootings and draft of Muhammad Ali. The war ended U.S. involvement in 1973 but had lasting impacts on American society and politics.

Hidden Path - Content Standards
Created Resonance Educational Consulting (www.ResonanceEd.com) for an online Learning Path on Integrating SEL Into Your Curriculum.
Hidden Path K-2nd grade
This experiential activity involves students navigating a hidden path across a grid of squares without seeing a map. It addresses five social-emotional learning competencies as students communicate, seek help from others, are helpful to their peers, take turns, and demonstrate cooperative behaviors. The goal is for students to reveal the path through trial and error. Processing questions focus on identifying feelings, asking for and providing help, and applying skills like cooperation at school and home. The activity can also be modified to incorporate math standards around counting, shapes, and fractions.
Three Ring Circus high school
This activity involves dividing students into three teams and having them collect objects and place them in their team's hula hoop. The goal is for all teams to succeed, but defining success as only their own team winning makes it difficult. Through discussion, students realize they can redefine success as all teams placing objects in a hula hoop to succeed together. This activity addresses social emotional learning competencies like responsibility, attitude, self-monitoring, listening, and decision making. It can be integrated into core subjects through examining concepts like writing conventions, multiple solutions, scientific discoveries, and historical perspectives.
Hidden Path 6th grade
This experiential activity called Hidden Path involves students navigating an unmarked path across a grid of squares by trial and error. It aims to develop social-emotional learning competencies like self-motivation, problem-solving, and teamwork. The activity can be facilitated or processed in different ways depending on the targeted skills. It has also been adapted to integrate math concepts like coordinate planes, ratios, and graphing by having students step onto coordinate points and trace polygons.
Hidden Path 5th grade
This activity involves students navigating an unmarked "hidden path" across a grid of squares. One student at a time steps onto squares trying to reveal the path through trial and error, while others observe. The goal is teamwork and developing social-emotional skills like self-motivation, decision making, and providing support to others. The activity can be processed to discuss what skills students practiced and how to apply them in other contexts. It has also been adapted to integrate math concepts like coordinate planes. The difficulty can be varied through adjustments to the grid size, rules, number of participants and complexity of the path.
Culture of Failing Forward
This document discusses using mistakes and failure as opportunities for growth and learning. It provides writing and conversation prompts to help students reflect on mistakes they have made, important lessons learned from failures, and how failures have helped them improve. Examples of prompts include writing about a time of accomplishment that seemed impossible previously, setting long-term goals and daily actions to achieve them, and how to build self-belief. The document also defines failure as a normal, necessary, and ongoing part of learning through experimentation and practice.
Culture of High Expectations
This document discusses establishing a culture of high expectations in the classroom. It provides sentence starters for teachers and students to use before, during, and after learning to help students successfully navigate challenging material. The sentence starters are meant to encourage students by acknowledging effort, progress, and a growth mindset. They also suggest strategies for overcoming obstacles and emphasizing learning from mistakes. The overall message is that how teachers and students view learning abilities can become a self-fulfilling prophecy, so they should adopt a mindset of high expectations.
Culture of feedback 2
This document discusses the importance of feedback, reflection, and student voice in developing a growth mindset. It emphasizes that students learn best when they track their own progress through charts and graphs, reflect on performance, and set goals. The document provides frameworks to help students set goals and examples of goal-setting approaches for elementary students. It concludes with reflective questions for teachers on communicating expectations, creating a supportive learning environment, offering feedback, and designing engaging work.
Culture of feedback 1
This document discusses the importance of feedback, reflection, and student voice in the learning process. It emphasizes that success is not linear and students should be reminded of where they are in their own learning journey. There are three key components to effective feedback: praise of effort, process praise that identifies specific actions, and feedback for improvement. Praise should focus on effort and the learning process rather than personal attributes to encourage students and help them develop strategies for handling challenges. The document provides questions teachers can use to help students reframe critical feedback in a positive light and see it as an opportunity to further their understanding rather than a reflection of their own ability.
SEL & GM
The document discusses how teaching students about growth mindset and malleable intelligence can increase their academic achievement and motivation. It defines growth mindset as the belief that intelligence can be developed through effort. A study found that students who believed their intelligence was malleable adopted more positive learning strategies and chose effort-based approaches when facing challenges. Teachers reported that 27% of students in the experimental group, who were taught about malleable intelligence, showed increased effort and interest compared to 9% in the control group. The document advocates teaching students that their abilities can grow with effort as a way to boost academic performance and self-efficacy.
Neuroplasticity & GM
Neuroplasticity is related to having a growth mindset and malleable intelligence because recent research shows teaching students about how the brain can continue learning and growing throughout life can increase academic achievement. Mindsets manifest in behaviors in the classroom, such as a growth mindset valuing challenges, seeing mistakes as opportunities to learn, and enjoying effort rather than performance goals. Teachers can scaffold learning to help students stretch beyond their comfort zone.
Introduction to a Growth Mindset
The document discusses growth, mixed, and fixed mindsets. A growth mindset believes that ability can improve through effort, takes on challenges, and sees failure as an opportunity to learn. A fixed mindset thinks ability is innate and gets defensive from negative feedback. A mixed mindset has aspects of both but is unsure how to respond to setbacks.
Gamification of Learning (High Tech, High Touch course)
This document discusses gamification and game-based learning. It begins by asking questions about games and play. It then provides statistics on gaming and discusses how games appeal to students. The document outlines characteristics of games and what defines a game. It discusses using games in education by applying game mechanics to learning. Examples are provided of content-specific games and initiatives that incorporate games. Benefits of games for learning like feedback, collaboration and problem-solving are highlighted. The document concludes with references for further information.
Technology Tools for Formative Assessment
This document discusses using technology tools for formative assessment. It provides examples of non-tech formative assessment methods like whiteboards, thumbs up/down, and exit slips. The goals are to provide alternative processes for formatively assessing student learning and making connections between teaching, learning and technology.
