Extractions: One lesson plan may contain a number of activities, and one plan may be implemented over a number of days, almost as though it were a "unit plan." When possible, quizzes and answer may be posted for your use as well. It is my sincere hope that you might be able to use some of these ideas. If you wish to collaborate with me and my classes on any one project, just send me an e-mail message, and we'll see if our students might be able to join forces. Such collaborative projects might take the following formats:
