Great worksheets! My students were able to follow along very easily and understood the basic types of government, why our founders chose a confederation, and the articles' strengths and weaknesses.

I use an idea similar to this but have never thought of giving the students the options having different people who hold different job as well. This is great idea, I'm excited to try it this week. I am working on my unit for the English colonies, I want to tidy a few things up then will post! Drop by and check it out, it seems we might have similar teaching styles!

Can't wait to use this with my seventh graders! I would make one suggestion though. On the puzzle, I only had to answer about four problems before I was able to guess the answer to the joke. Perhaps reorganizing the numbers would help. That way students are filling in the joke out of order and might not be able to guess the answers as easily. Being able to edit the document in Word would be extremely helpful :) This is a great activity though!

Nathan McNamara (TpT Seller) re: Penn and Colonial Pennsylvania Activities
Hello, I live in PA and give the third grade dreaded PSSA tests. I am always looking to share ideas with each other to help master the PSSA's I was looking at your materials available, check some of mine out also and follow me. I am new to TPT, so I am in the process of adding lessons, games, and other things also.

A great place to look might also be resources provided for other states' exams. For example, VA has many documents available online associated with its standards of learning tests. In particular, it has an expanded scope and sequence with lesson plan ideas for many subject. States like VA have had standards testing in social studies for many years, so you may be able to find many good ideas. Let me know if there is anything you need. :-)

AZ History Teacher (TpT Seller) re: Roanoke, Jamestown and Plymouth: Colonization Lab
How do the students know if they did a good job? Do you have problems arise?

Miranda Bailey (TpT Seller)
I did this lab with a 7th grade classroom, and they required a significant amount of scaffolding to help them. After reviewing with each group what they had done, I had them compare their decisions with the decisions of other groups. Then we discussed in small groups and as a class which decisions students thought were the wisest. I tried not to lead them to the answers; rather, I just wanted them to use critical thinking skills to evaluate what they and others had done. Older students might be able to do this comparison process with less hand-holding.
The only problems I have experienced when doing this activity are when groups got into heated arguments. (After all, they were on the young side.) I made sure to go over group manners with my students every time we did a group project.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Although I have worked in many different types of instructional roles in schools, I am currently working as a social studies teacher in an alternative high school in Virginia. I am particularly interested in ways to differentiate lessons to reach many different types of learners and ability levels in a classroom.
MY TEACHING STYLE
I enjoy making lesson plans interactive and engaging, with many different types of learning activities in each unit.
