This is just a notebook to help keep their notes organized and make class feel a little more tangible (my amazing school had them Printed). I enjoyed putting together these graphics and making it feel extra special (I Used Canva for the graphics). Click the image below for the link to the PDF Booklet.  Instagram Masterclass

Having something Tangible during virtual learning means a lot. I made simple Post Cards using Canva. They send beautifully made post cards and were very inexpensive! I send these to students if they win Kahoots, make valuable contributions to class and go above and beyond (or to just a student who needs a little encouragement).
In this short lesson 3-4 students (on zoom) will drag and drop a weakness of the articles of confederation that led to Shay's rebellion in a shared google slide. Students analyze context clues in the slides to determine which failure matches the effects. To make it more challenging- erase the pre-filled boxes and leave some blank and challenge students to write in their own failures. Click Here for an editable copy.
