Created by

The Lesson Shop

An Inquiry Based Learning Project your students are going to love!The internet has given us new power to connect, but has also given rise to one of the largest social health crises that people have ever faced: Cyberbullying. While often dismissed as ‘not big deal’, cyberbullying has been identified as a leading or accompanying factor in the rise of mental health degradation over the last 20 years.

An Inquiry Based Learning Project your students are going to love!Schools are places where amazing things happen, but they’re also places where a lot of stuff gets wasted: Lights and electronics are left on, thousands of pages of paper are printed but then left unused, the garbage cans overflow with items that should be recycled, and recycling bins almost always have garbage in them!

The Mystery of the Missing Chocolate Recipe

Created by

Depth and Complexity in a fun way

This is an incredible lesson that my 5th graders LOVE! They learn about the origins of chocolate, and then become investigators who must solve a mystery.

There are multiple types of puzzles, from word search to secret code to deductive puzzles. I use this unit for my gifted and talented 5th graders, and it takes us about 6 weeks to complete.
