1.3.3 Feeling safe and secure in school

1.6.1 A. Worker as protector

Young people are not yet full people. They are essentially rather weak and helpless and need a lot of nurturing and caring for. They also need protecting from the traps and many potential evils of society. Society is increasingly complex and they need guidance to find their way around.

2. Robert Frost
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer The poetry and life of Robert Frost are characterized in opposition to the works of nineteenth-century poets and Modernists Eliot and Pound.

Cold Metal
In this activity, learners discover that our hands are not reliable thermometers. Learners place their palms flat on various surfaces (metal, wood, glass, etc.) and compare how cold the surfaces feel. Learners are challenged to arrange the materials in order from cold to warm. Then, they use a thermometer to measure the temperature of each surface, only to discover that the surfaces are all at the same temperature. Use this activity to talk about temperature-sensitive nerves in skin as well as h

In this demonstration, amaze learners by performing simple tricks using mirrors. These tricks take advantage of how a mirror can reflect your right side so it appears to be your left side. To make the effect more dramatic, cover the mirror with a cloth, climb onto the table, straddle the mirror, and then drop the cloth as you appear to "take off." This resource contains information about how this trick was applied during the making of the movie "Star Wars."

Note: don't put meat or fish in your mold terrarium--after a few days, these would start to smell very, v
