I really liked this link because it would go along great with the unit that I'm doing for class. The only thing that I don't really like about it is that it's a worksheet so I would rather have the students create their own trees instead of using the worksheet.
I saw some of these math project ideas and thought that they were pretty cool. The only drawback that I found with them is that they don't look like lesson plans, but you can also make them your own.
I used this for one of my lessons for another class that I'm in and I really liked the different ideas and lessons that they used to teach about Helen Keller's Life.
