The document discusses using Sherlock Holmes as a way to introduce observational skills and logical thinking to students. It describes how Holmes based his conclusions only on observable facts and prior knowledge, which are skills that can be taught across subjects. The project involved students investigating a topic, drawing conclusions, and presenting their findings at a science expo to work on skills like scientific investigation, constructing knowledge, and understanding science's role in society. The experience helped improve students' reading, vocabulary, collaboration, communication, confidence, and engagement with school.
The document outlines the work schedule and learning plan for a Grade 7 science class's term 2 unit on developing a science expo project.

It provides examples of lesson plans, such as having students observe demonstrations and brainstorm project ideas before dividing into teams to further explore questions and plan their projects through the term.
Ms. V teaches a class of 14 students with diverse abilities and challenges. She takes a holistic and learner-centered approach, focusing on each student's strengths rather than weaknesses. To motivate her students and address different learning styles, she uses a variety of technologies and multimedia in the classroom, such as cell phones, instant messaging, and video conferencing. She emphasizes collaboration over independent work, encouraging students to network, share knowledge, and help each other. For a science fair project, Ms. V made the curriculum more relevant and engaging for students by incorporating their technology skills and allowing choices in presentation format. Through her innovative teaching methods, Ms. V helps students feel cared for and succeed by their own abilities.
This document discusses multiple intelligences and Bloom's taxonomy, relating them to different thinking levels and activities. It provides examples of how students with different intelligences - verbal, mathematical, visual - can engage with content at different levels of Bloom's taxonomy. These include activities like developing hypotheses, conducting interviews, creating illustrations, performing demonstrations, and evaluating projects. The goal is to incorporate varied activities that appeal to different intelligences and promote higher-order thinking based on Bloom's taxonomy.
The document discusses a chart from a book that compares rich learning tasks to traditional tasks. The book caused the author to reflect on the tasks given to students in their classroom. It examines what makes a task relevant and the importance of relevance, providing tools to judge how rich a learning task is. The authors also suggest ten essential conditions for learning that should be present in a classroom to meaningfully engage students in learning, which the chart above the author's desk reminds them to design more engaging activities for students.
This document provides an assessment rubric for a 7th grade science expo project. It outlines four criteria for evaluation: poster/display design and information (out of 10 points), use of the scientific method (out of 10), completion of a journal (out of 10), and an oral presentation (out of 10), for a total of 40 possible points. Students are instructed to submit this completed form along with their journal when presenting their project to the teacher.
Focus questions for project-based learning should:
1) Engage and motivate learners by posing an open-ended problem related to a real-world topic.
2) Be authentic and meaningful to learners' lives and communities.
3) Require higher-order thinking like evaluating, synthesizing, and analyzing rather than having a single correct answer.
4) Have answers that must be invented by learners through gathering information and constructing their own insights.
1) Bloom's Taxonomy outlines six levels of thinking skills - knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
2) These levels progress from basic recall of facts to more complex thinking skills such as applying knowledge to solve problems or create new ideas.
3) Each level involves different types of thinking and can be assessed through varying question cues that require different cognitive processes.

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

3. The story of Klara Majola is based on the true tale of a young girl's bravery in search of her blind father.
4. This happened about 60 (July 1950) years ago. There were no cell phones or radios to contact each other, no big searchlights to conduct a night search. Farm workers lived in small cottages with gas lamps for light and fires to keep warm in the winter.
5. The story is set in the Koue Bokkeveld, which is renowned for its bitterly cold winters.
6. Klara was a little girl who lived on a farm in the Western Cape. Her father was blind and her mother worked in the farmer's house. During the day Klara's father looked after the three children. Klara helped him clean the house and in the afternoon the children would play outside.
7. Klara's father would gather fire wood. He didn't go too far because he could not see. One winter it was very cold. They had used a lot of fire wood to keep warm. Klara's father could only find a few pieces of wood for the fire.
8. I will have to go further, he said to Klara. You stay and look after your little brother and sister.
9. Klara was worried but she did what her father said. It began to get dark. Her mother came home, but her father had not returned. I will look for him, Ma. she said. You better get supper ready. He can't be too far, said her mother.
10. How would he manage? Maybe he just sat down until we came to find him. But hurry it will be dark soon. Klara thought so too.
11. She put on her coat, because the wind was cold and set of on the path her father had taken. Much later some farm workers brought Klara's father home. They had found him wandering far from his path.
12. But where is Klara? said her mother. Didn't you see her? I told Klara to wait with the children, said the father. Klara's mother began to cry. She went to look for you. She's out there in the cold and darkness looking for you. All night long they waited. In the morning, they saw the frost on the ground.
13. Klara's mother hoped that she had found somewhere warm to spend the night. They checked the other workers' houses and then began to search the farm. Much later they found her poor frozen body. She had curled up against a rock trying to keep warm.
14. The family was sad. Life would never be the same again. Klara's father never forgot how brave Klara had been and that she had died trying to help him.
