    This should be a "must read" for kids. Prospective employers may use something like this to check the refs, kudos, etc of possible employees.

    The table contains all the usual information you find in a periodic table of elements, but then under each element, it lists real-world items that contain that element. This opens up a new avenue of projects for Science teachers where students can not only learn the different elements, but then connect them to real world uses and even explore the method in which the element is applied. For example, assigning a student to report on radon, they'll see it's a key element in earthquake predictors.

    How would this knowledge help our kids?
  • Tiffany Wright on 29 Apr 10
     
    And how about my own son? This makes total sense. I can't wait to see the actual study to see the activity recommendations and see how those might be modified (since many of our students have poor self-regulation).

  • NWF recommends that parents give their kids a "Green Hour" every day. This can take place in a garden, a backyard, the park down the street, or any place that provides safe and accessible green spaces where children can learn and play. Scientific research shows kids are happier and healthier when outdoor time is in better balance with indoor time.

  • After the American Civil War most states in the South passed anti-African American legislation. These became known as Jim Crow laws. This included laws that discriminated against African Americans with concern to attendance in public schools and the use of facilities such as restaurants, theaters, hotels, cinemas and public baths. Trains and buses were also segregated and in many states marriage between whites and African American people.

      This defines the Jim Crow Laws
  • Jim Crow laws were tested in 1896 by Homer Plessey when convicted in Louisiana for riding in a white only railway car. Plessey took his case to the Supreme Court but the justices voted in favour of the Louisiana Court. William B. Brown established the legality of segregation as long as facilities were kept "separate but equal". Only one of the justices, John Harlan, disagreed with this decision.

    Need to print a poster but dont have the time, or money, to do it?  Use your regular printer to print out letter sized pages to place together.  This web tool will allow you to "chunk" a poster into smaller portions.  Excellent for posters of student work in the classroom
