Editor's summary for 'Grand Canyon Exercise'
The resource being annotated is: http://www.dlese.org/dds/catalog_DLESE-000-000-000-127.htm
Teaching Tip on 'Seasoning for the School Year: A Recipe for Success'
I would suggest taking advantage of this site because it offers a lot of important resources such as graphs and tables that can be downloaded and printed for your classroom. The graphs are colorful and creative for a kindergartener to understand.
Teaching Tip on 'Explorations Through Time'
This site was accurate, had a nice layout and was very easy to use. I would recommend this site to anyone in the earth science education programs!
Teaching Tip on 'Minerals and Metals at Home'
It is rich in content, but biased. Consider the source. Look at other government websites and NGO websites for a more even look.
Teaching Tip on 'Who's on First: A Relative Dating Activity'
Be sure to run off and cut apart the pieces well in advance of the use of this lab. Stress reading and following DIRECTIONS.
Teaching Tip on 'A Winter's Tale'
There was good information, good pictures, and the website was interesting and colorful.
Teaching Tip on 'Focus on Sedimentary Environments: The study of depositional processes and environments at scales from the landscape to the microscope'
Some drawings to accompany the photographs, and additional photographs to highlight specific points might be helpful, especially for younger students in the former case and older students in the latter case.
Teaching Tip on 'Volcanoes in the Solar System Pictorial Tour'
This is a wonderful resource to learn about the volcanoes of the solar system. I would suggest: changing the color of the screen to a brighter one; adding more information in the main page to raise curiosity for young students rather than in a link; and please add a chart or two comparing the data of the volcanoes. Thanks for the interesting resources.
Teaching Tip on 'The Animated Virtual Planetarium'
Incorporate the site into a Powerpoint presentation. Use the various pictures of the solar system.
Teaching Tip on 'Geology Labs On-line: VirtualRiver'
Make sure you do your work accurately and check it before you try to go on, because if your answer is wrong then the site won't let you continue to the next page until your errors are corrected.
