Family Tree and History - Culture Activity.
One of my favorite and most worthwhile activities!
Wonderful document for recording family facts and memories. This is a culture assignment that will be treasured for who knows how long. I hand out as extra credit, but I strongly encourage their use... where else will this information ever be captured? Students just ask questions of parents and grandparents. Even better, have them video the conversation.

Ethical and Moral Scenarios for Discussion
This activity includes five detailed, moral scenarios relevant to high school students across multiple disciplines. I usually employ it cooperatively: Each group is assigned one of the scenarios, and after each group's presentation of its choices, other groups have the opportunity to weigh in, but this product is also useful when employed individually.

This is the checklist activity that is used before my "Privilege and You" questions. I always ask students to keep this private, and not to put their name on it.

This often takes a while because the students are very interested in it and in your personal life. They have always been very chatty and what I expect to take 20-30 minutes can easily stretch into an entire
