The perfect PPT to introduce your secondary students to American Romanticism!

This is a PPT that I created for my 11th grade English Learner students. I used the PPT to build background knowledge about the American Revolution prior to beginning the American Revolution literature unit in English 11 class. The PPT also touches on the purposes of writing, explaining how the majority of the literature written during the Revolutionary era was written to persuade readers.

I used this activity during my Newcomer English unit on numbers and money. I brought in the various objects pictured, distributed money manipulatives, and assigned the students a partner. The students traveled around the classroom to different stations and took turns taking on each role and making the appropriate amounts of change. In addition to practicing money vocabulary, the students also got to practice some basic phrases and expressions.

This slideshow introduces the concept of narrative writing. I use this to introduce the narrative writing process in my high school Advanced English Learners class.

This script was designed for middle school English Language Learners to practice working with money and role playing the roles of cashier and customer. It is suggested that the teacher brings in the household items pictured on the script and money manipulatives for students to work with. The script would be appropriate for an ESL classroom or any upper-level elementary classroom learning to work with money. The amounts do not surpass $1. The concept of making change is not addressed.
