Hearing Loss

    Hearing loss in mines is on the rise, but workers have different protection for different levels
  • Betsy Brokaw on 02 Feb 11
     
    I thought it was interesting to know what how much hearing is lost because of working in the mines. Still looking for better statistics.

    This is a YouTube video of what it looks like in the mines and what the miners actually do. It shows the equipment used and how they move the equipment form place to place.

    This clip can get long and boring to watch, but I think it's interesting what the inside of mines look like and what the miners actually do. I'm wondering the hearing lose that must occur for the workers?

    wow, I had no ideas Egypt's last President was even assassinated... This has gotta make President Mubarak a little uneasy. The Egyptians want equality and democracy, is that too much to ask for?

    The Town That Was is a documentary film of Centralia, Pennsylvania, a once thriving mining town until 1962 when the ming caught fire and continued burning until the mid 1980s.
  • Amanda Nelson on 01 Feb 11
     
    I thought this was a great documentary. They talk about the governments lack of help with the town's mine fire. Instead of the fire being put out soon, it lasted for many, many years destroying the town in the meantime.

    How Green Was My Valley is a story about a Welch coal mining family told through the eyes of the youngest boy.
  • Amanda Nelson on 01 Feb 11
     
    It was a pretty interesting story. Somewhat similar to our story Out of This Furnace. It was a little slow but thats kinda how old movies are. I don't think you could make a movie exciting about living in a coal mining family.

    Great reference tool Barb! I like the "Through the Decades" Fast Facts section, this would be a great extension activity for kids that are history buffs and like to collect this kind of detail.

    I think this is a great site to use with younger kids. It has great Sesame Street clips of Grover learning about different cultures. It is a great way to get young kids excited about other cultures around the world.

      I had no idea there were so many examples of pictographs and petroglyphs in Minnesota. Visiting any one of these sites would make for an incredible field trip experience.

    This is a great website that shows where reservations are located. It also talks about the different tribes that live in each area. I think this website is wonderful because it shows a map of Minnesota, which makes learning much easier and fun!

    I have also added another site similar to this one. This is a place to go to find contact information for the Representatives from each area. Students can easily access this information for writing letters.
  • emily lane on 30 Nov 09
     
    Besides the contact info (which is wonderful), this site has a section for kids, which teaches them various things about the senate and more. It also has teacher resources. This is a great site, one which could be very useful to a teacher,even if just to gain some knowledge.
