Great infographic on Greek mythology, either a great summary tool or as an example for a project.

Government in Gummy Bears

 

Very simple and easy to understand but this is a great visual for students on the dynamics of  some governments opperate and could lead to future projects on creating visuals for other principles.

Think Before You Speak Poster

From TeachJunkie, great classroom poster to encourage productive communication in the classroom. I like this version of the poster for older students but there are other ones.

Classroom Tweet Board

Taken from Ms. Spucci's Class , this is a great way to encourage kids to share their ideas and tips with one an another on a daily basis. I have also found it is very helpful and motivational for students when working group large group projects. Students can share sources and update team members all without distracting or disturbing other groups until they are ready. The same system can also be used as a means of morning attendance and turning in exit tickets without having to have students learn an additional procedure. These "tweets" can then actually be added to a classroom account, after being checked for content to keep absent students and parents informed on the events and progress in the classroom that day.

Brief Description

Students create a clothesline timeline whatever events, eras or images are relevant. 

Materials Needed

• clothesline (distinctive color yarn and push pins) however long as you need, make sure to space out the pushpins fairly regularly to support the clothesline and the material to be placed on it.
• clothespins
• index cards or paper cut to index-card size, glue or hang these from the clothespins to the timeline with years. 
• additional color coded yarn can be used to organize information along the time line and separate specific eras.
