Document-Based Questions for Reading Comprehension and Critical Thinking (Grade 3)
Give students practice in answering the types of questions used in standardized tests. High interest stories, primary source documents, and comprehension questions encourage the use of higher order thinking skills.
There are five topic areas with six or seven lessons in each. Each lesson consists of three pages: a reading passage, a related document, and an assessment practice page containing multiple choice, true-false-explain, and short-answer document-based questions. The students respond to the document-based questions based on the information gleaned from the passage plus its related document.
Daily Paragraph Editing has everything you need for standards-based daily practice in language arts skills. Each weekly lesson includes a 4-paragraph composition for students to edit and a related writing prompt that generates a writing activity.
Causation is a central topic in many areas of philosophy. In metaphysics, philosophers want to know what causation is, and how it is related to laws of nature, probability, action, and freedom of the will. In epistemology, philosophers investigate how causal claims can be inferred from statistical data, and how causation is related to perception, knowledge and explanation. In the philosophy of mind, philosophers want to know whether and how the mind can be said to have causal efficacy, and in ethics, whether there is a moral distinction between acts and omissions and whether the moral value of an act can be judged according to its consequences.
The Human Body provides instruction on the human body, its systems, structures, and functions for children in fifth and sixth grade. Included are hands-on activities about the body and health-related information related to each system.
