Winsor's Explore Alaska Blog: November 2010
http://explorealaskawinsor.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Winsor's Explore Alaska Blog. Sunday, November 28, 2010. Module VII: Culture and Climate. Module VII started out with videos and information about the composition of the atmosphere and the early formation of our solar system, and I found myself again disappointed, wishing I had discovered this information about six weeks earlier. But the blog entry "Module VII: Carbon Connections". Showed me some exciting ways to tie that information into my third quarter units on Chemistry! Video clip from Dave's Blog.

IndianCrk: Module V The Ocean, The Science, and Our Connection
http://indiancrkghetto.blogspot.com/2010/11/module-v-ocean-science-and-our.html
Sunday, November 7, 2010. Module V The Ocean, The Science, and Our Connection. Doesn't the salt give the sidewalks some traction so we don't slip? Here is my Google Earth image of the Gulf Stream and the continental shelf off the East coast. How similar they appear! I found several great articles in my favorite magazine Earth. Formally known as Geotimes). One article in particular follows the interview of geochemist Wally Broecker. Http:/ www.environmentalgraffiti.com. The module really makes connections...

Sunday, October 31, 2010. Seward's Tsunami Signs and Module IV comments. Has a great suggestion about interviewing those older Alaskans that went through the '64 Quake. What would we do without water, power, and the cell phone? Food and geology. Some of my favorite subjects! Thanks Dominic (Nick) Pader. Is blowing thing up in her classroom but I have wait until Chemistry. Great lesson ideas! What a timely module! 2 What landforms might one see at these particular places around the world? 3 What theories ...

Explore Alaska Class: Terrestrial Cyrosphere
http://sandi-explorealaskaclass.blogspot.com/2010/12/terrestrial-cyrosphere.html
Monday, December 27, 2010. How are climate, terrestrial ice and Alaskan indigenous cultures all connected? Once again, there is some of the information from this module that really stood out to me was logical and not particularly hard conceptually but I never really thought about it. For example, in the introduction the concept that terrestrial ice is frozen fresh water instead of frozen salt water was discussed. Even though this makes sense I had never thought about it. It looks at the idea of climate c...

Explore Alaska: October 2010

Sunday, October 31, 2010. For the most part, volcanoes are classified as active, dormant, and extinct, and that they occur mainly at the edge of geologic characteristics known as plates, which was the subject of earlier study. Here’s a regional map of Alaska volcanoes. The TD tools are invaluable, and I plan to build a sizeable file. Applying new knowledge to the classroom is an ever-challenging task, but for the generation of students who are movie-goers, here’s a fun website. Sunday, October 24, 2010.

Explore Alaska: MODULE EIGHT
http://ehhayesexplorealaska.blogspot.com/2010/12/module-eight.html
Sunday, December 5, 2010. Was not difficult to understand. I appreciated being able to concentrate on the Bering Straits region. Some years ago, I visited Savoonga. For a couple of days in February. Doing a bit of research on the village of Shishmaref reminded me of that visit. Http:/ www.kawerak.org/tribalHomePages/shiscoal/testimony.pdf. I found a Noaa report card. But many times, it’s all about fun: I clicked the “for beginners” button on the " Great Graph Match. Someone might wonder what relation the...

Dan Adair Blog site. Friday, November 5, 2010. Has a link oceans alive. Which I will be using with my physical science classes. Thanks for that resource Janet. Has a picture of a balloon with a light below it. What activity is that Cheryl? Link she provides is very "cool" Check it out and you will get my terrible pun. Makes a good point that as educators we need to filter out the resources and information in the modules that will best meet the needs of our students. Great reminder Alison. When I have kid...
