Iditarod
Annotations by Teddi Adler
|
Track #60871
Format: Resource list
|
|
100% of students surveyed in the third grade Social Studies Outreach class had no knowledge of the Iditarod. Students will use this site to become familar with the Iditarod. The Iditarod is an Alaskan adventure students and the school community can share without ever leaving their community. The site will help students gain an understanding of the dynamic interaction between human and physical systems around the world (the curriculum standard) as they follow the mushers on the Iditarod trail through the use of this Internet site. This site will allow students to discuss the ways in which physical geography, including climate, influenced how the local Indian nations adapted to their natural environment (e.g., how they obtained food, clothing, tools). The use of this Track will allow my students to use the Internet in my class to talk to experts that are actual mushers. This was one of the survey items my class needed to improve.

Track #20022
Format: Resource list
|

The "Whole Frog" project is intended to introduce the concepts of modern, computer based
3D visualization, and at the same time to demonstrate the power of whole body, 3D imaging of
anatomy as a curriculum tool. The goal of the Whole Frog Project is to provide students the ability to explore the anatomy of a frog by using data from high resolution MRI
imaging and from mechanical sectioning, together with 3D surface and volume rendering software
to visualize the anatomical structures of the intact animal.
Many organisms survive only under site specific conditions. Organisms are composed of systems
which contribute to the overall operations of an organism. This unit will allow student to view the operations of the organism within a computer based setting.

Number the Stars
Annotations by Teddi Adler
|
Track #20021
Format: Resource list
|
|
It is the goal, through the course of this lesson series, to not only get the students to think about the book, but also learn some strategies for more effective writing.
Students will listen and react to the book Number the Stars, by Lois Lowry.
Students will use comprehension skills to predict the outcome of each chapter.
Students will choose from various journal prompts related to the book to create journals on the word processor.
For the culminating activity students will have the option to do a few different projects. All, however, will be guided by this novel and the activities that were done. (Quite possibly the options will be to create a newspaper publishing, story, diary, interview, poem, etc.) This should give the students the opportunity to show higher order thinking skills. The students will acquire an understanding and respect for the Jewish culture and its ethnic diversity.
