This is a lesson about Saturn. Learners will complete one or more poems about Saturn using descriptive words. As a pre-writing activity, students generate a word list from books they have heard and read and images they have seen and created. With the support of the word lists, they will create poems. This is lesson 10 of 10 in "Reading, Writing & Rings!" for grades 1-2.
French language skills include speaking, listening, reading and writing.

The Atlanta 1996 Olympic men’s 4x100m relay captured the eyes of the world. It was a showdown between the USA host team and the Canadian underdogs. Few people noticed that the team’s starting runner, Carlton Chambers, was not racing at his best. He had sustained a slight injury and hoped that it would be better for the final. After a discussion with the team, the truth was evident and he knew he had to step down for the good of the team. Fortunately, Robert Esmie was waiting in the wings and ready to fulfill his role as team reserve. The race was an epic moment in Canadian sport history. The gold medal likely would not have been won, except for Carlton’s teamwork.
This resource shows students that teamwork requires that you put the good of the team first. Sometimes that means making personal sacrifices like letting someone else take your spot or play a role you would have liked to play yourself.

True love has the right ratio. In this humorous animation, the number of words spoken by each partner predicts whether a date goes well or horribly. What do you do when someone asks if you listen to country music backwards, but won't let you get a word in edgewise?
Bagages est un film qui donne la parole et la scène à des adolescents de l’école secondaire Paul-Gérin-Lajoie-d’Outremont nouvellement arrivés à Montréal. On découvre leur récit de migration et d’intégration à travers des ateliers d’art dramatique, des mises en scènes théâtrales et des entrevues où ils se révèlent à nous. Ils témoignent d’un « ailleurs » et d’un « avant » qui deviendront « ici » et « maintenant ». Ils sont jeunes, mais parlent de leur parcours avec une sagesse déconcertante, une émotion à faire trembler les plus durs et une authenticité désarmante.
**Il existe une mini-leçon pour le film Bagages. Le lien est trouvé sur ce site.
This lesson provides teachers with support for using text-dependent questions to help students derive big ideas and key understandings while developing vocabulary from the modern fable and play, The Baker's Neighbor. In this play, the neighborhood baker Manuel bakes delicious smelling pastries and puts them out for sale each morning, but his neighbor, Pablo, loves to smell the fresh bakery every morning without purchasing any pastries. This irritates Manuel to the point where he feels Pable should pay to smell his baked goods, and Manuel takes his complain to the town judge who eventually offers a ruling that allows Manuel to get the pleasure of "touching" Pablo's gold coins in return for Pable "smelling" the bakery.

Developed for third and fourth grade. Students will understand how their lungs work. They will understand what lung capacity is and be able to measure their own. They will test for a relationship between their lung capacity and their height.Biology In Elementary Schools is a Saint Michael's College student project. The teaching ideas on this page have been found, refined, and developed by students in a college-level course on the teaching of biology at the elementary level. Unless otherwise noted, the lesson plans have been tried at least once by students from our partner schools. This wiki has been established to share ideas about teaching biology in elementary schools. The motivation behind the creation of this page is twofold: 1. to provide an outlet for the teaching ideas of a group of college educators participating in a workshop-style course; 2. to provide a space where anyone else interested in this topic can place their ideas.

In this activity, students construct base-two slide rules that add and subtract base-2 exponents (log distances), in order to multiply and divide corresponding powers of two. Students use these slide rules to generate both log and antilog equations, learning to translate one in terms of the other. This is activity C1 in the "Far Out Math" educator's guide. Lessons in the guide include activities in which students measure,compare quantities as orders of magnitude, become familiar with scientific notation, and develop an understanding of exponents and logarithms using examples from NASA's GLAST mission. These are skills needed to understand the very large and very small quantities characteristic of astronomical observations. Note: In 2008, GLAST was renamed Fermi, for the physicist Enrico Fermi.
