Healthy life style made FUN!!!
 1st grade Standard 2 Objective 2  for Health and life style
Ed Tech Standard 6

Use telecommunications efficiently and effectively to access remote information and communicate with others in support of direct and independent learning and for pursuit of personal interests. (4)

The main intent at the early grades is for students to value learning and develop the skills to gain knowledge and understand their world.

1. articipate daily in short periods of physical activity that require exertion (e.g., one to three* minutes of walking, jogging, jump roping). 
2. Perform fundamental locomotor (e.g., skip, gallop, run) and nonlocomotor (twist, stretch, balance) skills with mature form. 
3. Develop manipulative skills (e.g., cut, glue, throw, catch, kick, strike). 
4. Create and perform unique dance movements and sequences that strengthen skills while demonstrating personal and spatial awareness. 

This is important becuase health is a vital part of life. If we can show kids how many activities their are and how much fun it is to be a part of something this will help them stay fit, it will also help with gross and large motor skills. It will help with social skill and even help them to adjust to hard challenges with others. 

Changing water

This is my Prezi that describes the different types of water.
Science Standard 1 Science 4
Ed Tech Standard 5
Use technology tools (e.g., multimedia authoring, presentation, web tools, digital cameras, scanners) for individual and collaborative writing, communication, and publishing activities to create knowledge products for audiences inside and outside the classroom. (3, 4)

Science is a way of knowing, a process for gaining knowledge and understanding of the natural world. The Science Core Curriculum places emphasis on understanding and using skills. Students should be active learners. It is not enough for students to read about science; they must do science. They should observe, inquire, question, formulate and test hypotheses, analyze data, report, and evaluate findings. The students, as scientists, should have hands-on, active experiences throughout the instruction of the science curriculum.

The Elementary Science Core describes what students should know and be able to do at the end of each of the K-6 grade levels. It was developed, critiqued, piloted, and revised by a community of Utah science teachers, university science educators, State Office of Education specialists, scientists, expert national consultants, and an advisory committee representing a wide variety of people from the community. The Core reflects the current philosophy of science education that is expressed in national documents developed by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the National Academies of Science. This Science Core has the endorsement of the Utah Science Teachers Association. The Core reflects high standards of achievement in science for all students.

Students need to know this since there will always be a form of water around them. They will learn
in more depth about the different stages in higher levels.
Also it is just fun to learn about, and experiment with water.

Shifting Moon
What are the phases of the moon and why does it look different
when I look up at the night sky.

  

2nd grade Standard 1 Science objective 3

Ed Tech Standard 2

Discuss common uses of technology in daily life and advantages and disadvantages those uses provide. (1, 2)

Reflects the disciplines of science. These standards are consistent across all three grades. Each standard is further explicated by objectives and indicators.
Standard 2 is Earth and Space Science
Standard 3 is Physical Science
Standard 4 is Life Science
Science Content by Standard: Shows the learning progressions inherent in the core. The charts are organized by standard, each containing the objectives and indicators for each grade side by side.
Every kid loves to look up at the night sky and see the sun and the moon.
When you look up at the moon it seems to changed every night. Some nights it is really full and bright, other nights it is a sideways smile, and some nights their is no moon at all.
By knowing how the moon moves around the earth you understand why takes so many different shapes.
Students need to know this because it is a part of science that will help them later on in different science classes as they get older.
