This product contains a script of dialogue representing the debates during the Constitutional Convention. It is not intended to be 'historically accurate' but gives a general representation about the debates held during the convention (although the positions of the characters are held true to their position during the convention). I developed this as a way to engage my 'reluctant' readers in the content and provide them with some fluency practice. The script has 12 characters, so most of my s

In this activity, children will practice calculating the unit price of various packages of items in the produce section of the grocery store. After collecting data, children will determine unit price to make informed consumer decisions.
In this activity, children will collect data while at the grocery store and then use the data to complete activities. Students will practice weighing fruits in the grocery store scale and calculate volume of cereal boxes and compare the mass of the contents.
This resource provides a pre-test to determine student target levels on the use of multiplicative and additive comparison, and writing appropriate equations, in solving word problems. From the scores of the pre-test, appropriate practice and activities are provided in order to differentiate the learning activities / centers. The students 'move' through the resource activities to master the standard. Included are exit tickets at each of the 4 target mastery levels. Answer key is provided to a
With this activity, children will collect data from the produce section of the grocery store and using the data, develop an understanding of linear functions.
In this activity, children will collect data from the produce section of the grocery store by weighing items and plotting the weights of different numbers of objects on a graph. This will help students understand the relationship that more items relates to more weight and therefore a linear relationship exists.
In this activity, children will, with parent support, weigh various fruits and vegetables while in the grocery store and then using the data, complete activities which will help children learn the concepts of weight.
With this resource, children measure various spherical fruits / vegetables and determine the surface area. Children will use the experience to determine the 'edible' volume of by problem solving.
In this grocery store activity, students will weigh produce and determine the mean, median and mode of the products. From this data, they will solve 'real world' problems. Additionally, the resource includes an activity that requires the children to make conclusions base on line graphs of production.
In this activity, children will measure and weigh various spherical fruits to determine the volume and then plot the relationship of the volume with the weight. Students will have the opportunity to practice plotting data on a graph and solving problems related to volume.
