LEARN NC

K–12 teaching and learning · from the UNC School of Education

I teach ELP/ELP Paideia at Cary High School in Wake County. This project was created at NCCAT in collaboration with my Paideia teaching partner Marcille Nance. LEARN NC provided the opportunity for us to integrate curriculum and technology. This is my twelfth year of teaching in North Carolina.

Concept chairs: A format for classroom discussion
This is a culminating activity that provides a format so that all participants are drawn into a discussion.
The discussion for the "Concept Chairs" will be based on a unit of study that assesses the effectiveness of the Judicial System while examining various types of justice within society (social, personal and constitutional). Primary texts, fictional literature and non-print sources will provide the basis for this discussion.
Format: lesson plan (grade 9–12 English Language Arts and Social Studies)
