OpenSciEd Middle School science program addresses all middle school NGSS standards. This comprehensive science curriculum empowers students to question, design, investigate, and solve the world around them.
In this classic novel from 1949 readers will be transported to an era of war, civil conflict, and revolution during a world of totalitarian oppression and terror. Follow Winston Smith, a member of the Party and an employee of the State, during his experiences as a conspiring rebel and his membership in The Brotherhood. George Orwell provides the language and ideas that feed ongoing concerns about privacy, individualism, and freedom of thought as he describes Winston's involvement in the resistance, and the ultimate surrender of Winston's personal thoughts and feelings to the Party.
The Student Mathematician’s Journal allows students to explore simulated or real-life problems and help them to think, write, and read like mathematicians. It encourages students to reflect on what they have learned in each lesson, think deeply about mathematics, and communicate in writing on worksheets.
In this unit, students explore percents in depth. They begin with understanding percents as a part/whole ratio, comparing a given part to 100, which represents the original whole. In this way, the study of percent is linked to the study of proportionality
In this unit, students explore percents in depth. They begin with understanding percents as a part/whole ratio, comparing a given part to 100, which represents the original whole. In this way, the study of percent is linked to the study of proportionality, one of the big mathematical ideas of middle school mathematics.
