    Extractions: Press Release: December 29, 2004 Digitalis Education Solutions has published 12 astronomy lesson plans for use with kindergarten through 12th grade students. Lessons are aligned with the National Science Education Standards and cover a variety of topics, including moon phases, solstices and equinoxes, and debunking astrology. Bremerton, WA. December 29, 2004 Digitalis Education Solutions has published 12 astronomy lesson plans for use with kindergarten through 12th grade students. Lessons are aligned with the National Science Education Standards and cover a variety of topics, including moon phases, solstices and equinoxes, and debunking astrology. Digitalis has made these lessons freely available as a public service to encourage the teaching of astronomy and to help increase scientific literacy. Basic astronomical concepts such as why we experience seasons, the cause of moon phases, and how a day and a year relate to Earth's movements are an important part of scientific literacy. A planetarium is ideal for illustrating abstract astronomical concepts. Although these lessons are written for the Digitarium Alpha digital planetarium projector, many activities can be modified for use with different planetarium systems or even used in a classroom setting. For example, one activity involves zooming in on Jupiter and showing the Galilean moons changing position over time, a piece of evidence Galileo used to disprove the geocentric model of the universe. Educators using a system without this capability or not using a planetarium at all could instead show posters of Jupiter and its four largest moons at varying times. Some activities involving planetary motion, planet phasing, and precession of the equinoxes will be impossible to modify for pinhole type portable projectors.

Intended for junior high school students and their teachers. Student weather reporters investigate seasons, temperatures and clouds on Mars and compare them to Earth. Electromagnetic Radiation - On Trial by Nellie Levine (aka N. Levandovsky.) Intended for high school students and their teachers. This lesson engages students in collaborative work to gather evidence regarding beneficial or nefarious properties of various types of electromagnetic radiation . Students place the electromagnetic spectrum "On Trial" and take advantage of an electronic interactive WWW forum to gather, post, and discuss their evidence.

    Extractions: For thirteen years, Bill Lundquist was known as “Mr. Wizard” by Stillwater area elementary students. He brought the wonders of science to 42,000 children in 1,700 elementary classrooms through the Visiting Wizard program. As he visited classrooms throughout the district, “Mr. Wizard” challenged students to think and act like scientists, to always wonder “why”, and to have fun while learning. He opened their eyes to the wonders of science. Mr. Lundquist and his wife, Jeanne, shared a passion for science and an inspired gift for teaching. Their legacy continues in elementary classrooms through the establishment of The Lundquist Endowment for the Sciences. To help carry on Bill Lundquist’s vision and science philosophy, two STARLAB Portable Planetariums have been purchased and are available for use in grades kindergarten through six in each of the district’s elementary schools. The Elementary Astronomy Curriculum was developed to support instruction of the district’s K-6 Science Standards and use of the STARLABs.

    Extractions: Home Science Education - Kinesthetic Astronomy KINESTHETIC ASTRONOMY To shortcut to download, please click here! Here we present a significant upgrade to the first in a series of innovative, experiential lessons we call Kinesthetic Astronomy. The Sky Time lesson reconnects students with the astronomical meaning of the day, year, and seasons. Like all Kinesthetic Astronomy lessons, it teaches basic astronomical concepts through choreographed bodily movements and positions that provide educational sensory experiences. Kinesthetic Astronomy lessons are science-rich and fun. They are intended for sixth graders up through adult learners in both formal and informal educational settings. They emphasize astronomical concepts and phenomenon that people can readily encounter in their "everyday" lives such as time, seasons, and sky motions of the Sun, Moon, stars, and planets. Kinesthetic Astronomy lesson plans are fully aligned with national science education standards, both in content and instructional practice. Our lessons offer a complete learning cycle with written assessment opportunities now embedded throughout the lesson.

48. How To Make Simple Lesson Plans For Homeschool
    How to make lesson plans for homeschooling, Donna Young's homeschool lesson plan examples can help homeschoolers learn to plan homeschool lessons.

    Extractions: at Amazon It is good to wake up in the morning and to know what you are going to do that day in school. That is what planning lessons is all about being prepared so that you can be as stress free as possible. The planning examples show how to divide a book into manageable parts and some examples offer suggestions based on my experience with homeschooling. I recommend writing the parts in a term planner or on notebook paper. Make a copy for your homeschool planner and if you have younger children who will use the same book, a copy to save for later use. [optional] Once your children are of the age to practice time management, make copies for their use so that they may mark off their lessons as they do them.
