Students will use different forms of writing, various artistic media and computer software to create a group presentation on the theme of "heroism." Grappling with Identity in Latino Poetry What is the experience of being a Latino living in the United States today? Are their concerns and experiences different or similar to that of other ethnic groups? Can the experience be categorized at all? The PBS series AMERICAN FAMILY gives one perspective on this as it depicts the life and times of a fictitious Mexican-American family. There has been much else written on the subject as well. In this lesson, students explore this complex issue by looking at the demographics of the United States, and reading how this has made an impact on American media. After becoming aware of some of the issues surrounding Latinos, students read a collection of poems on the subject, written by Latino writers. In the end students reflect on what theyve learned by creating a multimedia collage.

Extractions: Lesson Plans: Topic 1 - Why Study the Georgia Capitol? Activity 2 The Capitol as a Symbol ACTIVITY OBJECTIVE Students will identify reasons for studying the Georgia Capitol and visiting this symbol of Georgia government. MATERIALS AND RESOURCES STRATEGIES As the center of state government for over 100 years, the Georgia Capitol has been the scene of many historical events of local, state, and national significance. The Georgia Capitol is a place where citizens come to celebrate, to mourn, and to express their views. To help students visualize the stories which have unfolded at the Capitol, divide the class into groups of 3 to 5 students and distribute a copy of Worksheet 1.1, "The Peoples Building," to each group. Ask students to list examples of events which have occurred at the Capitol in each of the three categories. The textbook, field trip video from Georgia Public Broadcasting, daily newspapers (current and historic), and other resources may be provided to help students generate additional examples. After students finish, ask each group to share their lists as the teacher summarizes by listing responses on the chalkboard. Student responses should demonstrate that the capitol is a center for bringing people together (1) to celebrate [i.e., inauguration of governors], (2) to mourn [i.e., lying in state of prominent officials]; and (3) to express their views [i.e., to lobby for or against legislation].

Extractions: A Study in Values Age/Grade Appropriate Grades 7 through 10 Objectives: Use simulation to encourage rational discussion of issues related to National Parks Location Classroom Background The National Parks are designated as areas where our natural treasures are set apart and protected. However, maintaining such treasures has many implications outside of Park boundaries. Air quality in a wilderness, for example, is affected by the conditions in areas around it; animals nourished in a Park cannot always be confined to its borders; park management has considerable economic impact on neighboring communities. In recent years, there have been many instances in which conflicts have developed between Park interests and the interests of citizens on Park borders. The reintroduction of wolves and the outlawing of snowmobiles seemed especially threatening to residents near Yellowstone. The restriction of logging and oil drilling saved pristine forests at the cost of local jobs. In the Badlands, we have other challenges demanding other decisions. The issues raised in the following scenarios represent real problems which students will soon have to face as they become active participants in our national life.
