Virtual Field Trip

Students will take a virtual field trip to Museo Galileo in Italy!  They will explore the museum virtually and use the information they gather to create a brochure for the museum.  They will learn about the history of science and some of the key people in the history of science.  The lesson plan can be found here:  Adrian's Wiki

Class Assignment 4/7/11

For a lesson in science, I would have my students go to scrumblr.ca and create a board.  They would create 3 columns and label the left one "Tortoise," the middle one "Similarities," and the right one "Turtle."  They would then put notecards under each column.  Characteristics specific to turtles go under the turtle column, same with tortoise, and similarities between the two would go in the middle.  There are many other ways to utilize scrumblr.ca in the classroom.
