I’m not sure it it’s something high-schoolers need to know, though I’ll confess that I would have liked to have known about the concept of the zero-sum game as an adolescent. There is a Cultural Literacy worksheet under that hyperlink on the zero-sum game.

Here is a context clues worksheet on the noun acrimony. I suspect that its adjectival form, acrimonious, is probably in more common usage in the English language. In any case, acrimony and the concept it represents probably ought to be a part of a high school student’s linguistic toolkit.

Unless my schedule changes again (always a possibility, alas). these two worksheets on the commutative law of multiplication will be the last math-related material you’ll see on Mark’s Text Terminal for awhile.

Now, as it happens, I am not teaching math after all. So, I have a few more things I can post that I developed as I worked toward building a scaffolded curriculum for the basic operations. These two basic subtraction worksheets are the first of four more posts I’ll publish containing these materials.

When I prepare materials for Hispanic Heritage Month (of which, alas, as I previously mentioned in these pages, I currently suffer a shortage), I tend to perceive the materials along a narrow range of topics, related almost solely to people and events in the Americas. As this web page from Catholic Relief Services observes, “Hispanics and Latinos are not necessarily the same. Hispanics are descended from Spanish speaking populations. Latinos are people of Latin American descent.” I’m no expert on this. If you are, I’d be greatly obliged if you could weigh in on this topic.
What I do know about the Hispanic World derives both from my own education and my travels across South America. For me, the most salient characteristic of the Hispanic world is that it was, in its entirety, subject to imperial exploitation and expropriation. Therefore, one of the unfortunate products of the Spanish presence in the new world is that legacy.
In any case, I think under the definitions limned above (again, if you have scholarly knowledge of this, I would be extremely grateful for some clarification of this issue), I can safely post, as part of Mark’s Text Terminal’s observance of Hispanic Heritage Month 2019, this reading on the War of Philippines Insurrection and its attendant vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet.

As I get ready to leave school for the day, I’ll post this reading on Bonnie and Clyde and its attendant vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet. Nota bene, please, that this is not biographical material on Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, but rather a reading on Arthur Penn’s film starring Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty, respectively, in the title roles.
Have you seen it? It’s a masterpiece by any standard I recognize.
