Lessons

Students would conduct research on the different regions of North Carolina through the text and outside research. I would divide the students into groups and give them each a region to focus on. They are allowed to bring in any outside research, pictures, or materials to help them with their project. Materials such as markers, colored pencils, paper, scissors, glue, and tape will be provided in the classroom, as well as time in the computer lab. Each member will present their project once finished (1-2 days), and I will asses them (as well as their classmates) on how well they did. I will provide a rubric at the beginning of the project stating what needs to be included in their presentation such as climate, geography, crops, land masses, etc. Once all of the presentations are over, we will have a class discussion and discuss the similarities and difference of each region.
