Hunting for Caterpillars in New Orleans


1 month to go...

While I prepare for this great adventure for both my students and myself, there is work to be done to prepare both my students as well as Mrs. Connolly's class. Knowledge of how to navigate the internet and how to respond to a blog is lessons that students need to learn. Testing the communication technology and building vocabulary and background knowledge are also goals to begin work on.

My goals of the Earthwatch program:
* bring students into the real world of science using technology
* become knowledgeable on how to blog
* understand the interdependence of all living things through an ecological view
* become critical thinkers of the world


I cannot wait to get started!
