I have taught Science
and Math forever. My passion is to create an activity based format that is
relevant to the current population of students. Our planet is in trouble,
and each of us needs to do our part to preserve the amazing diversity of
life, and celebrate wellness through a healthy lifestyle. I have taught
K-Adult, love "muddle" school, and I have a Masters Degree

Lesson Power Point

This lesson is designed to familiarize
students with the fascinating world of Rock Art, and give them practice
in creating and using Power Point and Access. For this activity, we will
focus on images from SE Utah, because that is where the pictures were
taken. Rock Art is everywhere. I encourage you to use the Power Point
and Access file as a guide, and then go out and explore the early
history of your area. I am blessed to live in the Southwest, where these
images tell many stories, but there are always new stories to tell.
Students will collect data from the images provided, and place the
information into an access data base template to share with other
students and research more scientifically.
