I am so happy that I can do this for him and I am happy to do what I can do for all of you. I am looking forward to seeing all of you. Please send me a schedule in what is needed to do this trip as this is collecting all the work and constructing the project. This is putting it all together.

Thanks a million. This is a great lesson. I plan to add a “public awareness” component so that we can further spread the word!!

Phillip,
I am so glad. I have found a survey as well from The Ecological Footprint website. It features not only science but also a possible math approach as well.

See you in a week!
Mary

Mary,
I really like that website in the lesson. I’ve been using it since student teaching (5 long years ago). Thanks for the lesson. I’ll incorporate a little of it into what I currently do with that page. For the kids, it helps to have some square footage ready… because kids don’t readily have real estate experience…

cool deal

Comment on Fair Use by mberger

Brandy,
Thank you for the reference to the clip. A modified saying that seems always to ring true is “The more we share; the more enrich our teaching becomes”.
Thank you for sharing. It is wonderful.

Thank you, Mary! At the bottom of that page is a link to the short movie “A Fairy(y) Tale” which we saw at the technology training this summer. If any of you haven’t seen it, you must! It’s hysterical, and mkes a great point about copyright and fair use. I’ll be showing it to the kids next week.

Are we meeting together as a group in the morning? I just want to be sure about the times. Or are you meeting with us individually in our classrooms?

Thanks,
phil

Hi,
I am so excited. All of you are really progressing along.
I was wondering would you and the students consider doing a podcast of the presentator from the Waste water recylcing plant?
I am scheduled to come to work with you from October 22 through to the 24th.(I can’t wait).
If you and the students need anything that I can do please email me, place it on the blog, or call. I am here for all of you.
