Here is an example of lesson materials for a unit in geography and literature developed within Google Earth. Students take a tour of the places that are traveled to in Google Earth while being prompted with appropriate questions and content links for each chapter of the text. Really fun.

The Seed Savers Exchange is a group from Decorah, Iowa that work to keep a stock of non-hybrid, heirloom seeds. They make seeds available to purchase. Biodiversity instead of hybrids.

This book is packed full of information about what to do with "leftover food" after it is produced and consumed. It would be an interesting read for upper elementary students.

Thanks for linking this great teaching resource up to the Diigo group Brianna. Another wonderful connection, which also attests to the power of online petitioning, this time from a 4th grade teacher and his class, can be found here: http://www.change.org/petitions/z-let-the-lorax-speak-for-the-trees?utm_medium=email&utm_source=action_alert. Essentially his petition, which was signed by tens of thousands of individuals, helped shape the focus of the upcoming film version of the Lorax from Universal Studios. Isn't this a great?

This is the site for Seminis seeds- which was quietly purchased by Monsanto so now all their seeds fall under the Monsanto patents. Check the list to see if you have planted any Monsanto varieties- it is a rather large list.
