Bring the Summer and Winter Games into several subject areas with this collection of 12 HMH classroom activities. Seven social studies and language arts activities ask students to explore Olympic history, Jesse Owens, prominent athletes, host cities, life during a particular Games year, differences between the Summer and Winter Games, and details from a Winter Games scavenger hunt. Five additional math activities connect sports to graphing, angles, pacing, nutrition, medal data, rates, and goal setting. Many activities include suggested grade ranges, downloadable materials, or teacher guides, making the collection especially useful for teachers seeking ready-to-go ideas they can adapt across elementary and middle school classrooms.

Ask students in grades 6 and up to research Jesse Owens, choose one of his quotations, and write a reflection explaining what the quotation reveals about his experiences, achievements, or challenges during and after the 1936 Games. Assign editorial teams in grades 4-8 an Olympic year and have them research what life was like during that time, then create a collaborative "Year in Review" digital magazine using Canva Edu, reviewed here covering arts, fashion, sports, government, and international affairs. Have students complete the Winter Sports Scavenger Hunt while watching selected events, looking for age-appropriate features such as shapes and numbers, countries and continents, winter vocabulary, or examples of figurative language, and then compare their findings in pairs or small groups.

Newsela's Winter Olympics article offers teachers ten classroom activity ideas to bring the excitement of the Winter Olympic Games into instruction. The activities can build reading, writing, discussion, research, and critical-thinking skills while helping students learn about Olympic sports, athletes, traditions, and related topics. Teachers can use the ideas as whole-class lessons, small-group activities, enrichment projects, or connections to current events. The blog article is free to read and requires no registration. However, some Newsela articles, lessons, or resources linked within the post may require a paid Newsela subscription. Newsela does offer a free Newsela Lite account, but it provides access to a limited, rotating selection of content rather than the full Newsela library.

In the Classroom
Have students choose a Winter Olympics research topic such as a famous athlete, the history of the Games, or a recent Olympic event and use Newsela's suggested readings to gather evidence before presenting their findings to classmates using Adobe Creative Cloud Express, reviewed here. Ask students to use the snowboarding dataset highlighted in the article to explore incline angle, speed, trick height, or potential and kinetic energy, then write a claim supported by calculations and observations from the data. Invite students to write review questions about Olympic history, athletes, physics, climate, and vocabulary, then use Wayground (formerly Quizizz), reviewed here, to create a class formative-assessment game.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Make fire and life safety instruction practical with this collection of ready-to-use lesson plans from the National Fire Protection Association. These materials cover home fire escape planning, calling 9-1-1, responsible decision-making, fire risks, and other safety topics for different ages and audiences. Several resources are designed as concise 10-minute mini-lessons, while others provide more extensive instruction for specific groups. For example, an early-adolescent lesson for grades 6-8 focuses on fire-safe behaviors for students who may stay home alone, while another helps young adolescents evaluate risky fire-related behaviors and make safer choices. Lesson materials typically provide an audience, objective, suggested timing, instructional steps, discussion questions, and supporting safety messages, making the collection useful for classroom health lessons, community safety programs, and visits from firefighters or other safety educators.
tag(s): fire (28), fire prevention (19), fire safety (21)
In the Classroom
Have students analyze fictional situations involving cooking, fireworks, bonfires, electrical equipment, or other potential hazards. Ask them to identify the risk and propose a responsible choice that could reduce it. Invite students to practice explaining what they would do when a smoke alarm sounds. Have pairs role-play getting outside, going to a designated meeting place, and explaining when and how to call 9-1-1 from a safe location. Ask students to create a fire-safety infographic using Canva for Education, reviewed here. Students can focus each infographic on one NFPA lesson topic, such as escape planning, smoke alarms, responsible behavior, or emergency calls.

Make kindness and empathy part of bullying prevention with this brief resource from Share My Lesson. Created for National Bullying Prevention Month, the resource directs teachers to the Rules of Kindness campaign, which gives children and teens tools to stop bullying and help prevent it by building empathy and kindness. Teachers can use the linked campaign materials and kindness lesson plans to move beyond identifying hurtful behavior and focus on positive actions students can take to create a more caring classroom or school community. The Share My Lesson entry itself contains little instructional content, so teachers will need to use the linked external resources to build out the lesson.

Help high school students build a clear, research-based understanding of bullying with this concise Share My Lesson resource. The material introduces bullying through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention definition, emphasizing unwanted aggressive behavior, an observed or perceived power imbalance, repetition or the likelihood of repetition, and the potential for physical, psychological, social, or educational harm. The resource then directs learners to an American University School of Education infographic for additional information about preventing bullying. This is a brief resource rather than a detailed, step-by-step lesson, so teachers will likely want to add discussion, analysis, scenarios, or a student response activity.

Help students explore the emotional impact of bullying through a hands-on, small-group activity centered on a symbolic heart. Students begin by filling a large paper heart with positive words associated with a newborn, then consider how hurtful words, stereotypes, and bullying can damage a person's self-image. As the activity progresses, students mark the heart to represent hurtful language and add shields representing ways people may cope with emotional pain. Guided writing, group discussion, and a whole-class debrief encourage students to consider the lasting power of words, recognize coping behaviors, and develop greater empathy for others. Designed for middle and high school students, the activity takes approximately 50 minutes and works best in groups of at least four.

Have students complete the Heart Exercise in groups of four or more, adding positive words, hurtful words, and symbolic shields to their group's heart before discussing how each stage changes its appearance and meaning. Have pairs compare supportive and hurtful communication with the Interactive 2 Circle Venn Diagram by Read Write Think, reviewed here, then ask each pair to identify behaviors that can help repair relationships. Invite small groups to brainstorm healthy ways someone might cope with hurtful words, then post their ideas on a Padlet Sandbox, reviewed here, for a class collection of supportive strategies.

Turn bullying prevention into an integrated month of learning with this ready-to-use collection of lessons, activities, reproducibles, literature connections, and assessment materials for grades 3-5. Centered on empathy, kindness, acceptance, positive communication, and safe responses to bullying, the resource includes lessons such as "The Problem with Bullying," "Mean Words Hurt," "Helping Our Friends Stop Bullying," "The Other Person's Shoes," "Just Kidding," and "Courageous and Safe." Students examine teasing and bullying, practice being positive bystanders, distinguish asking for help from tattling, and consider when to seek adult assistance. Printable materials include vocabulary activities, a word find, scenario-based worksheets, a game, writing and drawing prompts, and a culminating bullying quiz. Cross-curricular extension ideas connect the theme with language arts, literature, art, music, and math.
tag(s): bullying (56), empathy (80), social and emotional learning (221)
In the Classroom
Have students complete the "The Problem with Bullying" activity, then discuss nonviolent responses such as staying calm, using I-messages, saying "stop," avoiding fighting, and seeking help from a trusted adult. Ask students to examine the "Just Kidding" scenarios individually, decide when joking crosses the line into hurtful teasing, and defend their decisions with evidence from each situation. Follow with a whole-class discussion about how intent and impact can differ. Have students create a cartoon showing a situation in which asking an adult for help is appropriate, as suggested by the resource. Students can draw their cartoons on paper or use Free Comic Maker by Adobe, reviewed here, to create a digital version.

Give students straightforward strategies for handling cyberbullying with this short video from the Federal Trade Commission. Using situations familiar to young people, including texting, commenting, sharing, gossip, rumors, and hurtful online messages, the video emphasizes that respectful behavior matters online just as it does face-to-face. Students learn practical steps for responding to online harassment, including avoiding retaliation, blocking or ignoring the person when possible, saving evidence if the behavior continues, asking an adult for help, and standing up for someone experiencing cyberbullying. The video closes by encouraging students to treat others as they would like to be treated and to stop and think before clicking. Downloadable MP4 and WMV versions make the video convenient for classroom use even when streaming is impractical.

Bring bullying-prevention skills to life in an interactive, sports-themed online game from The Sports Museum's Boston vs. Bullies educational program. The larger program uses examples and messages from Boston athletes to help students understand what bullying is, consider the perspectives of students who bully or are bullied, recognize the important role of bystanders, and learn strategies for responding to cyberbullying. The game is part of a broader collection that includes videos, discussion questions, activities, skill-building lessons, and facilitator materials. The Sports Museum describes Boston vs. Bullies as an educational program that uses the power and example of Boston sports to help stop bullying in schools and communities.

In the Classroom
Have students play the game individually or with a partner, then record three bullying-prevention strategies they encountered and discuss which could be applied realistically at school. Invite small groups to examine a bullying scenario from three perspectives: the student doing the bullying, the student experiencing it, and a student who witnesses it. Ask groups to develop a constructive action for each person. These three roles form major sections of the Boston vs. Bullies instructional materials. Have small groups create a brief bullying-prevention presentation using Canva for Education, reviewed here. Assign groups topics such as recognizing bullying, responding calmly and confidently, helping when witnessing bullying, or preventing cyberbullying.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
