I have a couple of free periods at the end of this unit, so I'm using it to let them watch part of Cowspiracy. It's about the impact of animal agriculture on climate change. I made some questions for them to fill in while watching the movie (an easy and a hard version...both in the same doc). The lesson before watching the movie, I will go over a preview ppt, and they will answer the first two questions (during lesson 11.5). Then, we will go over the rest of the questions to make sure that they understand them. During my next free class we will go over a ppt with problems and solutions for helping the environment. Then, they will make posters based on how they can save the earth. I'm also showing them a short clip of one of Greta's speeches during another class. ***I added a few slides from respect_teaching to my PowerPoints, so thank you :)Cowspiracy (35 minutes): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1SOJMF2Ttj53l8_PRiWILZk7-loPmyN6KGreta (8 minutes): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1IAtLrOkskTR_ITXZy5Zc6BabBLXOCDYW

Quote from: Cohort 2019 on September 22, 2019, 07:47:24 pmI used several VICE documentaries to let them think on policy changes. After having researched most of the available data they chose to give up on investing in renewables and came up with plans to escape the worst effects by migrating to Canada or Russia. Nobody viewed becoming vegan as a viable option. Next sessions clearly need to be on the ethics of who gets to live and survive in Canada and who has to go live with the Ruskis.https://video.vice.com/en_us/video/global-warming-is-increasing-russias-profits-and-pollution/5a565d1f177dd479712cb0d1https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/j5w374/climate-despair-is-making-people-give-up-on-life?utm_source=stylizedembed_vice.com&utm_campaign=qvg3zm&site=vicehttps://video.vice.com/en_us/video/watch-vice-news-investigate-the-true-cost-of-climate-denial/5a539da9177dd405753bd891Vice Season 5 Ep. 21 climate solutionsWill elementary kids understand this or learn the key expressions in the book from this Vice documentary?

Hi everyone, this is an Among Us PPT game I made using another among us ppt I found (i dont remember where, so if you recognize this as your work thank you for doing all the hard work, I hope you don't mind that I changed it.)It's a speaking/reading activity that I used as the game for period 2It could also work as a warm up but my students are very low level so I only used it as a game.All the students stand at the beginning and the game ends when there is either 3 students or 1 student, you can decide.When the emergency alert button is "pressed" the student that read that box is eliminated as the imposter and must sit down. You can change this to that student accuses another student of being the imposter (so they eliminate their friends) but I found that with my kids, they took too long to decide on someone.This game can easily take up to 10+ mins and there are enough slides for 2 rounds.There are around 9 "emergency alert" buttons on each slide, I have an average of 22-24 students so that works perfect playing with 2 slides per round.Hope all that makes sense!
good game, but boxes are way too small. There should be 8 boxes per screen.
