University of Arizona Center for Middle Eastern Studies Lesson Plan Competition 2014

Teachers of all grade levels (K-12) and content areas: You could win cash, prizes, and prestige by entering our lesson plan competition!

The deadline to submit lesson plans for consideration in this year’s competition (by email or regular mail) is Sunday, August 17, 2014.

•    Teachers are invited to submit one or more Middle East-related lesson plans they have created.
•    Winning lesson plans will be shared widely with educators through our outreach program.
•    The CMES 2014 Outstanding Lesson Plan Award will consist of a $200 cash prize for the winning teacher and a collection of resources for use in the teacher’s school. Second place winner(s) will receive a cash prize of $100, and a selection of resources for use in the teacher’s school.
•    School officials of the authors of all lessons chosen for “publication” on the CMES website or CDs will be notified of the teacher's accomplishment.
•    Lesson plans may be in any content area or at any grade level. They should be in a format ready to be used by other teachers who might not have a strong background in the subject presented and should include a concise outline of the academic K-12 standards addressed. Resources necessary for the lesson plans should be noted, and if any readings or materials are needed to implement the lesson plan, they must be submitted along with the lesson plan.
