Interesting ideas.  Might be a big leap to assume that the world population will go down…..

Environmental Photo Essays + Images of Protest

Filed under: Art, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies — Jacquie Henry @ 8:47 am

Free Technology recently posted Remarkable Images of Protest.  The post might lead to some useful resources for environmental, social studies classes & art classes.  There is at least one link of interest to math teachers – Fibonacci Sequence Illustrated by Nature

The site is blocked by BESS – but you can check it in the library or at home.  Some of the content is definitely PG-13. 10 Most Suggestive Cacti On Earth for example =)  Still – there are many interesting articles/phot essays such as:

  • 5 Deadliest Effects of Global Warming
  • 8 Incredible Green Roofs
  • Remarkable Images of Activism from the Last Fifty Years
  • Fibonacci Sequence Illustrated by Nature
  • The Birth of Stars

Project Ideas

Filed under: Social Studies — Jacquie Henry @ 12:14 pm

It would be great if kids could produce video projects like this and post them on youtube.

Little Rock Nine History Project Documentary

Black or White (recreation of a classic experiment where black children were asked to pick which doll they prefer – the black or the white)

I know, I know.  You can’t get there from here.  “I have a dream, that some day, all teachers will be able to access YouTube, free of censure from the barking dog…..”

Chris – there is a HILARIOUS YouTube video called “Duck and Cover”.  It would be great for your baby boomer researchers to look at.
