Natural resources are materials from the natural environment that are valuable to humans. These include things like water, land, forests, and minerals. Failing to protect natural resources would negatively impact humanity by limiting resources for survival like food, water, shelter and reducing quality of life. Students are tasked with learning about natural resources by reading an article, taking notes, and answering questions to demonstrate their understanding.
This lesson plan is done as Assignment#3: Internet-based project (using WebQuest).
It is aimed at intermediate students who are learning about ecology and finding different ways to SAVE THE PLANET.
The lesson plan was required for the subject 'ICT in English Teaching' at Universidad Tecnológica Nacional.
The Webquest I have created incorporates technology and common software into a nature journal project. In this Webquest, students are asked to create a journal template and cover page using either Microsoft Word or Publisher. This template is then printed and ten two sided copies are made. It is on this template that the student will write detailed, reflective, nature journal entries that relate to topics in science. Five of these entries will be done in the "real world" and five of them will be inresponse to national geographic videos or virtual birder "birding breaks". this will allow stduents the opportunity to refelct on species and habitats in their own community and those in different places in the World. Once the entries are complete, the student will use Excel to create a table of contents that will accompany their journal. Finally, the student will create one slide in PowerPoint to accompany each of their journal entries. This slide can include digital photos they themselves took, or images found on the internet.

Creating Little Botanist was presented at the Anchorage Association for the Education of Young Children Conference February 2015 by Katie Olson. Katie has over 12 years experience working as the Directress at The Learning Tree Montessori and also serves as the Program Chair at Alaska Christian College in Soldotna. This session takes a look at the importance of creating a connection with the natural world in order to help young children self-regulate, focus, develop observation skills, and develop a life-long loving relationship with nature. This session helps outline how educators might develop a framework for an outdoor experiential classroom for children 3-11.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

5. PLANET EARTH - DOCUMENTARY
•Take notes in your Interactive Notebook:
My favorite scenes from Planet
Earth and why I like them (be
specific):
6. • After the documentary, answer the following questions individually or with a
partner. Write your response in your Interactive Notebook.
1) What do you think society would do if there was no
natural environment (no trees, no water/land, etc.)? What
effect do you think it would have on humans?
2) What parts of the natural environment do you interact
with every day (think of where you go, the foods you eat
and clothes you wear that come from the natural
environment, etc.)?
3) How do you think not having natural resources (like
trees, fresh food) would affect your daily lives?
7. LEARNING TASK:
•Read the text called “Natural Resources”
posted on the Google Classroom.
