I have been sorting through the boxes of my childhood and came across this lesson plan I must have made in middle school.... This is the typed version of it, trying to cut down on the amount of "things" and thought this could easily be saved and put digital =). I think at one point I probably had created all the material that is referenced here, but that has been lost in time. In general I just think I was a super cute nerdy child =)
