Rube Goldberg simple machine project
This is a 2 page description/procedure/rubric for a Rube Goldberg project. I gave my class 2 full weeks to work on this. They are provided with minimal materials, the rest is gathered from home (recyclable materials, toys, etc..). A PowerPoint presenation accompanies the Rube Goldberg machine. My students LOVED doing this and they learned a lot about simple machines as well.

Orton-Gillingham Tutoring Contract
I have been tutoring privately for over 25 years and I fine-tune my tutoring policies every school year and summer. This is my latest version. You will have to "make it your own." It is NOT a one size fits all product so, of course, you will have to customize it. I always send the first 2 pages to parents after the initial phone call or email so they understand my background, my services, and Orton-Gillingham. The final 2 pages are used after a schedule has been agreed upon between the parent(s)
