This lesson/activity is a supplement to textbook resources when teaching and reviewing adjusting entries for Supplies and Prepaid Insurance. By using candy (or other small items), students can record the transactions and have the visual inventory of items, thus emphasizing the need for adjusting entries.
This lesson covers the basics of accounting. Things such as debits, credits, T accounts, and normal balance sides. Worksheet number one can be very helpful on future assignments.
Help students grasp accounting basics, the language of business, by playing Cribbingo.
This activity and lesson can supplement your accounting chart of accounts instruction provided in most accounting textbooks.
This template is meant to be a guide for Nebraska Career Education Teachers in the Business, Marketing, and Management Career Field when creating digital online lessons. Headings and/or topics not included in the lesson plan should be marked N/A.
Transactions for a merchandising business related to sales and cash receipts will be discussed and practiced. New vocabulary will be reviewed. Customer service scenarios, videos, and role play will also be addressed to go along with this lesson in accounting.
This module examines the nature and variability of subduction margins through examination of data sets that document subduction zone inputs, deformation, and resulting morphology in different settings.
This jigsaw style exercise challenges new geomorphology students to collect topographic data and analyze its accuracy and precision.

In this lab exercise, students practice correctly using measurement tools, recording data, calculating density, using significant figures, and exploring the concepts of accuracy and precision.
This task examines, from a mathematical and statistical point of view, how scientists measure the age of organic materials by measuring the ratio of Carbon 14 to Carbon 12. The focus here is on the statistical nature of such dating. This task addresses a very important issue about precision in reporting and understanding statements in a realistic scientific context.
This task is a refinement of ``Carbon 14 dating'' which focuses on accuracy. Because radioactive decay is an atomic process modeled by the laws of quantum mechanics, it is not possible to know with certainty when half of a given quantity of Carbon 14 atoms will decay. This type of question is very important in science and it also provides an opportunity to study the very subtle question of how errors behave when applying a function: in some cases the errors can be magnified while in others they are lessened.
This problem involves solving a system of algebraic equations from a context: depending how the problem is interpreted, there may be one equation or two.
This task is a somewhat more complicated version of "Accurately weighing pennies I'' as a third equation is needed in order to solve part (a) explicitly. Instead, students have to combine the algebraic techniques with some additional problem-solving (numerical reasoning, informed guess-and-check, etc.)
Learn how to research companies, industries and other critical business information to give you an edge in the job search process with this interactive tutorial.
Spreadsheets Across the Curriculum module/Geology of National Parks course. Students estimate travel times and costs of a driving/camping trip to visit national parks in Colorado.
This unit of investigation is introduced using the anchoring phenomenon of a rocket launch. Students investigate the concepts of what is fuel, why some materials react and others do not, the role energy plays in the rearrangement of atoms, and where does the energy to do this come from and finally what makes the rocket lift off if fire itself is not causing this.
There are a wide range of interactions between 'science' and 'the public'. Examples range from visiting a museum, or indulging in a science-related hobby, to reading a newspaper article about a breakthrough in the techniques of therapeutic cloning. Many of these interactions could be said to be 'passive'. This unit explores the practicalities of the public becoming more 'active' in the direction of science practice by 'two-way' interactions, with dialogue taking place between science and some part of 'the public',
This lesson is about teaching about how to write paragraphs in cursive, and also topic in cursive. for example (favorite movie, class, book, or health goal.)
In this activity, students explore the effect of chemical erosion on statues and monuments. They use chalk to see what happens when limestone is placed in liquids with different pH values. They also learn several things that engineers are doing to reduce the effects of acid rain.
Short video on the bicarbonate ion buffer system for acid-base balance for anatomy and physiology.
