For my final blog I have decided to concentrate on lesson plans for my multi age school to learn more about the Alaskan geology including the earthquakes and volcanoes acting up nearby. Volcanoes are not far from us here in Cooper Landing and it is going to be a great way to start the new school year in January when we explore and learn about volcanoes. In order to learn about the volcanoes, we will need a little background knowledge on the earthquakes we feel, which happen on a very frequent schedule.
We will be able to learn through exploration through the Teacher Domain website, as well as other hands on materials.
Students will learn about volcanoes and then apply their knowledge by 1) exploring the physical characteristics of various types of volcanoes and 2) identifying the types of volcanoes featured around Alaska and 3) designing and building their own volcano.
Students will explore volcanoes in Alaska before we begin.
Students will enjoy seeing recent Earthquakes on this page.
