She wrote several influential books including Silent Spring, which brought awareness about the dangers of pesticides and pollution on the environment. Some of her other achievements include three other books on ocean life and receiving awards such as the National Book Award for Nonfiction and the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Lewis and Clark
Meriwether Lewis and William Clark led an expedition from 1804 to 1806 to explore the Louisiana Territory for President Thomas Jefferson. Lewis and Clark assembled a group that included Sacagawea as a guide. They traveled up the Missouri River, encountering many Native American tribes. In winter 1804-1805, they stayed with the Mandan tribe and hired Toussaint Charbonneau and his Shoshone wife Sacagawea as interpreters. After crossing the Continental Divide in 1805, they reached the Pacific Ocean. On the return trip, they split up but reunited in St. Louis in September 1806, having completed the first transcontinental journey across North America.

The document provides brief biographies of several notable historical figures, describing their early accomplishments:
- Many showed intellectual curiosity and leadership from a young age, such as Alexander Hamilton writing at age 13 and becoming a U.S. envoy at 14.
- Several were homeschooled or self-educated, like Frederick Douglass teaching himself to read at age 8 while enslaved.
- Many faced adversity but still achieved success, such as Booker T. Washington founding the Tuskegee Institute at age 25 after leaving coal mines at 17.
The Louisiana Purchase
The document provides background information on the Louisiana Purchase and subsequent Lewis and Clark Expedition. It summarizes that in 1803, France sold the Louisiana Territory to the United States for $15 million, doubling the size of the country. President Thomas Jefferson then commissioned Meriwether Lewis and William Clark to lead an expedition from 1804-1806 to explore the newly acquired territory westward to the Pacific Ocean. The expedition gathered valuable information about the lands, peoples, flora and fauna and helped establish American control and settlement of the territory.

Cereal box book report template
A mysterious disease was destroying the wheat crop and threatening the town's survival. The local scientist worked tirelessly to discover the cause and cure. Through late nights in her lab, she found that a tiny pest was infecting the wheat with a harmful bacteria. She then developed a groundbreaking pesticide that saved the wheat, and the town, just in time for the harvest.
Cereal box book report- Directions
This document provides instructions for creating a cereal box book report. Students are asked to decorate an actual cereal box with illustrations and information related to a chapter book of their choice. The front of the box should include the invented cereal name and picture. The right side lists the main characters and setting. The left side provides a short summary of the book's main problem and solution. The back designs a game based on the story. The top includes the book title, author, page count, and star rating. A prize can also be included.
Cereal Box Book Report
Students in second grade will complete a cereal box book report as part of their digital learning for the fourth quarter. They should choose a chapter book they have not read yet to read and complete the book report on. Parents are asked to help their child select a book that can be an actual book, found on Epic or Tumble Books Premium so they have enough time to finish reading it and complete the book report. Teachers hope students can share their completed book reports when they return to school but may also share them over Zoom. No due date is being set for the project at this time.

Swot analysis findings
Rachel Rountree conducted a SWOT analysis of technology use at her school. She envisions teachers using technology for 75% of instruction and achieving higher-order thinking. Currently, every classroom has a SmartBoard, document camera, student response system and projector. However, the school relies on the county technology plan rather than having its own. Most teachers use SmartBoards daily but few other technologies. To improve, the school should create a unique technology plan, offer more training, and provide time for lesson planning with technology.

Bottlenose dolphins are born small but can grow up to 13 feet long and weigh over 1000 pounds. They live in warm ocean waters around the world and have a gray body with a beak-shaped nose that gives them their name. Dolphins swim using their tail for steering and can go both slow and quick, eating fish as their primary food source which they catch using echolocation to detect prey through clicking sounds.

Jackrabbits are not rabbits but hares that are born with more fur, are bigger with larger ears and longer hind legs compared to rabbits. Jackrabbits can be identified by their very big tipped ears, big eyes, varied fur coloration, whiskers and short tail. They are herbivores that eat over a pound of plants like cacti and grasses each day and when threatened can run up to 40 mph and jump up to 10 feet to escape predators.
