"Welcome to Tonight's Sky. This site will help you plan you observing sessions by helping you find objects of interest in your sky. Based on your input below a list of objects will be produced that are visible at your location when you plan to observe. Any object below the local horizon will be excluded. On the next page you will see details about each object. You can then research any object of interest with the links provided. It is my intention to provide a sample of what you will see in the eyepiece of a 6" telescope. As a final step you can select the objects you plan to observe and a page will be provided for you to print and take with you when you go out. Happy hunting. "

"The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) emerged in some measure because of the pressures of national defense during the cold war with the Soviet Union, a broad contest over the ideologies and allegiances of the nonaligned nations of the world in which space exploration emerged as a major area of contest. From the latter 1940s, the Department of Defense pursued research and rocketry and upper atmospheric sciences as a means of assuring American leadership in technology. A major step forward came when President Dwight D. Eisenhower approved a plan to orbit a scientific satellite as part of the International Geophysical Year (IGY) for the period, 1 July 1957 to 31 December 1958, a cooperative effort to gather scientific data about the Earth. The Soviet Union quickly followed suit, announcing plans to orbit its own satellite."

"These materials can be used to enrich any science curriculum and are graded for students at all levels. Energy Sourcebooks The Energy Sourcebooks are teaching guides and energy education activities to help students better understand electricity, energy, and the environment. The lesson plans were developed by TVA energy specialists working in partnership with classroom teachers and university staff. All learning activities were field-tested in schools and coordinated with state departments of education. Renewable Energy Curriculum The Renewable Energy Resources curriculum is a classroom tool developed by TVA's Public Power Institute. Its purpose is to educate children in the science and ecology of renewable energy. Learning about renewable energy resources is appropriate for any grade level. The material has been divided into three levels: elementary (grades 3-5), middle (grades 6-8), and high school (grades 9-12). You can use this material for lesson plans, demonstrations, hands-on and enrichment activities, and science fair projects. (These are PDF files that require Adobe Acrobat Reader for viewing.) Elementary School (898 kb) Middle School (1.06 mb) High School (1.10 mb) The materials correlate with TVA's renewable energy program, Green Power Switch. Water safety classes Members of Bicentennial Volunteers Inc. (BVI), a TVA retirees' group, speak to students in kindergarten through seventh grade about the importance of wearing life jackets and other water safety habits. Help spread the word about water safety by inviting BVI to speak at your school. Call BVI toll-free at 800-426-8801. "

Lifelong learning is essential for effective educators and should be modeled for our students. With so many changes occurring in the fields of educational technology, curriculum, pedagogy, and law, it is imperative that educators receive opportunities for growth in their school and beyond. One powerful way to grow is through developing a personal learning network (PLN). PLNs enable educators to learn in accordance with their diverse interests and passions. During a conversation with teacher leaders last year about improving how meaningful professional development is offered, a model from the business world was suggested;Training and other professional growth activities would be embedded within the school day. the light bulb went on for me. I quickly realized that the current school schedule presented the perfect solution to offering meaningful professional development during the day in the form of noninstructional duties, which are otherwise often a waste of time. The plan that my administrative team and I have developed drastically reduces the amount of noninstructional duties the teachers have, such as lunch, hall, or in-school suspension duty. It also reduces the pe

Synopsis: The lesson plan is based on Hispanic artists. Its purpose is to introduce important artists to students so they may become familiar with artists, their works, and their roles in society. Three artists are highlighted in this lesson, but you can easily incorporate other artists. Plus, this lesson can continue throughout the course with students maintaining notebooks (either in hard form or on the computer) of the artists they study. The lesson is intended for Level II Spanish, but may be adapted for higher levels as well. Similarly, it may be modified for artists from different languages and cultures.
