Kids learn the value of currency and how to save and earn interest. In a key lesson, kids even get to purchase items in their classroom's general store. It's a fun way to learn the importance of being financially literate! Filling Empty Pockets In this lesson, students explore the concepts of borrowing and credit with an emphasis on credit cards. Students learn how credit works, why banks and other corporations extend credit, and what credit consumers need to know, including how to preserve their access to credit and how to avoid "credit trouble." Students also consider the real cost of buying on credit, weighing the costs and benefits of credit purchases against the option of budgeting and saving. Finally, students will consider various real offers made by credit providers and decide which offer, among several, is the best.

Warm-Up Activity: You Have To Live in Somebody Else's Country To Understand Built around a poem written by a Cambodian immigrant girl, this activity helps students understand the feelings of immigrants or anyone that mainstream American society considers "outsiders." It was developed by a teacher who was frustrated by the derisive remarks and insensitive behavior displayed by American-born students toward recently arrived immigrant students in her classes. By the end of the lesson, she observed students apologizing voluntarily to their classmates for their prior lack of sensitivity! This lesson is based on a technique called "four corners": students move to different areas of the room, depending on their reactions to various controversial statements about immigration. Students then research, debate, and revisit earlier claims. This is an excellent lesson, especially when paired with the Immigration: Oral History lesson because it gives students the opportunity to move from secondary to primary sources, thus personalizing and making more meaningful the information they are learning. It is also effective when paired with the Film Study lesson plan.

TheatreBooks -- Drama In Education: Introduction & Theory lesson plans An extension on the list of activities, the series of lessonplans aids the educator in .putting together a fully realized unit. http://www.theatrebooks.com/drama_education/
Extractions: Welcome to the new Drama in Education catalogue! TheatreBooks has produced catalogues for teachers regularly since 1975, and it is with the knowledge that teachers have come to rely on these as resource tools which has guided our selection. The titles presented here do not reflect our entire Drama in Education section, but are a reflection of the most significant titles chosen by teachers for use in the classroom. All the annotations are new and are based on a thorough reconsideration of each book. In addition to the written annotations, we have included a few footnotes to further detail our entries. Firstly, we have designated the age group for which each book is geared. The letters P, J, I, and S refer to the following grade levels: P rimary (K-3); J unior (3-6); I ntermediate (6-9), and S enior (9-12). As you will notice, many of the books are useful for a variety of grade levels and, as leading drama educator Dr. Larry Swartz has commented: "Each particular group of youngsters is unique, and it is they, after all, who create the action." Our designations are meant as a guide only. Further, the books that are listed in the Drama in Education section of our catalogue have also been classified according to content as follows:
