Here's one of many versions of the famous Australian story "The Greedy Frog."

This resource includes Before, During, and After Listening activities for "The Greed Frog," which will be read aloud on Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2020. The story comes from The Barefoot Book of Animal Tales From Around the World, retold by Naomi Adler and illustrated by Amanda Hall. 

Get ready for hilarity, because this week, we're diving head first into Greek Comedy. Actually, though, maybe don't get TOO ready for hilarity. Taste in humor has changed a little over the last couple of thousand years. You already know about Greek Tragedies, with their hamartia and catharsis and whatnot. Today we're going to look at how Greek comedy evolved out of those tragedies, first as Satyr plays, and later as full-blown comedies. So come along. There are a few laughs involved, I promise.

In ELA 8 Greek Mythology becomes real when students see the connection to many terms and ideas that we see in the world around us. Also, students discover the names of businesses connected to Greek Mythology and look at why the business chose the name they did.

Using a teacher made wikispace; each student was given a God to
first research and become an expert in order to take on that God’s
role on Mount Olympus. After the research was completed,
students were given a scenario where all of their God’s have been
kicked off of Mount Olympus by Zeus and they must now defeat
him by use of the wiki. They will need to complete twelve
“labours” in order to reach the top, and Zeus. Students completed
a variety of assignments in order to learn about Greece and
Mythology in an interactive style; allowing for student discovery,
utilization of all learning styles, and giving students the
opportunity to take learning into their own hands.

Students are introduced to innovative stormwater management strategies that are being used to restore the hydrology and water quality of urbanized areas to pre-development conditions. Collectively called green infrastructure (GI) and low-impact development (LID) technologies, they include green roofs and vegetative walls, bioretention or rain gardens, bioswales, planter boxes, permeable pavement, urban tree canopy, rainwater harvesting, downspout disconnection, green streets and alleys, and green parking. These approaches differ from the traditional centralized stormwater collection system with the idea of handling stormwater at its sources, resulting in many environmental, economic and societal benefits. A PowerPoint® presentation provides photographic examples, and a companion file gives students the opportunity to sketch in their ideas for using the technologies to make improvements to 10 real-world design scenarios.

Students learn basic marketing concepts and use professional marketing techniques to compose an advertisement for a hybrid vehicle. In the process, they learn the principles of comparative analysis.

Students form expert engineering teams working for the (fictional) alternative energy consulting firm, Greenewables, Inc. Each team specializes in a form of renewable energy used to generate electrical power: passive solar, solar photovoltaic, wind power, low-impact hydropower, biomass, geothermal and (for more advanced students) hydrogen fuel cells. Teams produce poster presentations making a case for their technology and produce an accompanying PDF document using Adobe Acrobat that summarizes the presentation. This activity is geared towards fifth-grade and older students, and Internet research capabilities are required. Some portions of this activity may be appropriate with younger students.

How do greenhouse gases affect the climate? Explore the atmosphere during the ice age and today. What happens when you add clouds? Change the greenhouse gas concentration and see how the temperature changes. Then compare to the effect of glass panes. Zoom in and see how light interacts with molecules. Do all atmospheric gases contribute to the greenhouse effect?

This video shows an example of urban agriculture in Montreal using greenhouses on the roof of a building. This shows a great example of how agriculture and food production can take many forms.

In an emotionally charged talk, MacArthur-winning activist Majora Carter details her fight for environmental justice in the South Bronx -- and shows how minority neighborhoods suffer most from flawed urban policy. A quiz, thought provoking question, and links for further study are provided to create a lesson around the 18-minute video. Educators may use the platform to easily "Flip" or create their own lesson for use with their students of any age or level.

Faced with the potential of a large expense related to water quality, the Portland (Maine) Water District performed a thorough analysis of their options. Their choice came down to making an investment in conservation or concrete.

This lesson for English Language Learners (ELLs) discusses greenwashing, when individuals and organizations falsely portray their actions as beneficial to the environment. All activities are automatically graded with feedback provided to the learner upon submission.
