A fun and creative way for students to use and consolidate their knowledge of the Vikings by creating a 'recipe' to make a Viking. Great as a Friday afternoon activity when students tend to get a bit ratty!
These files make up a teacher's diary/class rolls/daybook (and the information pages are easier to read than the commercial diaries available).
Fully editable so you can adjust to your own needs.
*Cover pages- edit to add your school & teacher details + school bell times, conduct annotation codes & print 2-sided.
*Class rolls, grades and merits for a 20 week semester- print 2 sided as is and it will open with a whole term to a double page. Print one set for each class.
*Daybook lesson outlines/daily lesson record- designed for a 6 period day, but can be adjusted to your needs. If you print it as is 2-sided, it will print a whole 20 week semester and open with a week to a double sided page.
*Addendum 5/2/17- now an additional document has been added for a Termly/Weekly planning template- use to record important upcoming events & meetings.
Print these pages, use a hole punch and put into a folder and you will have a professional teacher's diary with no cost (other than the cost of printing the pages) and can tailor it to your needs and add more pages as needed- way better than the commercial teacher diaries which cost at least $20-$30!

Study of the site of Akrotiri on the ancient island of Thera (modern-day Santorini)is one of the "Site Study" options in Yr 11. Attached are a range of resources including programs, syllabus information and tutorials and activities. A fascinating topic due to the island's cataclysmic destruction by volcano, which makes it an excellent foundation for the Yr 12 core "Cities of Vesuvius". Links also to "Atlantis" myth. Also fascinating because of Thera's contact and probable links with the Minoans and Egypt. Lots of ethical issues too because of the nature of 'restoration' of the site.
Questions to accompany viewing of the movie "The Devil's Arithmetic" which is a Holocaust story that helps students understand why we need to remember- designed for Year 10 History. Free resource, I do not own rights to movie, which is available through the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhDhW2YPsrU at the time of posting this, but changes to this URL are beyond my control (if this happens). I recommend you try and purchase a copy of the movie yourself. It is also currently available on Clickview Online which is an audio-visual resource site for Australian teachers (if your school subscribes).
