Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students listen to Flint-based rapper Jon Connor's song "Fresh Water for Flint" to better understand the sense of frustration and injustice people living in the city felt during the water crisis. Students then experiment with creating their own water filtration system to better understand the scientific and engineering principles behind water treatment. Lastly, they consider the biological effects of lead poisoning and determine specific, political, economic, and scientific causes behind the Flint water crisis.

Geography "Why is Michigan Special?" Chapter 1
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Students use a geographic lens to explore the state of Michigan. The chapter focuses around the five major themes of geography: movement, region, human/environment interaction, and location. Students explore the concept of “state” using a map of the United States. In studying location, students use cardinal directions, identify various ways to describe the relative location of Michigan, and begin to explore how location can influence the development of a state. When studying place, students identify and describe significant human and physical characteristics of Michigan using a variety of maps. Through literature, maps, informational text and other resources students also explore the concept of human/environment interaction as they learn about Michigan’s natural resources and how people have used, modified, and adapted to them. In studying movement, an emphasis is placed on the Great Lakes. Using shipping as a launching point, students explore how and why people, goods, jobs and ideas move within, into and out of Michigan. Finally, students apply the concept of region to the study of Michigan as they explore different ways Michigan can be divided into regions as well as the different regions to which Michigan belongs.

MEECS Climate Change (2023): Topic 1.1 - What is Climate?
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Have you ever heard someone ask something like, “If the Earth is really experiencing Global Warming, then how can my town be experiencing record-breaking cold and snowfall this year?” This type of misunderstanding can arise because of people’s confusion about the difference between weather (short-term conditions) and climate (long-term patterns and trends). In this lesson, students will review the difference between weather and climate so that this type of misconception doesn’t interfere with their learning about climate change in subsequent lessons.

MEECS Climate Change (2023): Topic 3.3 - Changes in Species Distributions
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

The geographic range of a plant or animal species is determined by its environmental requirements – the conditions it needs to survive and reproduce. These conditions include abiotic variables, such as temperature, precipitation, and nutrients, as well as the presence of certain other species with whom the species shares important interactions. Climate change can result in shifts in all these things and can lead to an area that was once ideal for a species to become uninhabitable for them. However, it can also create new areas that meet the species needs that didn’t used to before. These changes result in shifting species ranges over time. These shifts can have a variety of impacts on ecosystems. In these activities, students will investigate these potential impacts.

Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

Climate prediction models help us to understand how the Earth's climate is changing over time and how it might change in the future. By predicting the potential impacts of climate change, we can prepare for and adapt to these changes. Accurate climate predictions can help inform policymakers about the potential consequences of their decisions and develop strategies for mitigating and adapting to climate change. In these activities, students work with simple climate prediction models.
