Lesson+Sharing+Fort+Cherry

One of the requirements for our project is to share the learning with other teachers and students. The project doesn't specify how you go about this - the means for sharing are up to you. The only requirement is that you share - and keep track of the sharing process. Below document the way your team choose to address the sharing. You may include info such as:

- Whom will you share with? (include the district, school, __teacher__ name, and a link to that entity) - What will you share? (your final lesson plan? the actual residency? the excitement you have for the project? resources you've located?) - When will you share your learning? (Will you share after your lessons are complete, while you are implementing, from the very start of your planning?) - Where will the sharing take place? (at a district in-service day, on the web, when you meet for coffee, etc.?) - Why have you chosen to share with this particular group? - How will you share your learning? (will you share the lesson plan? invite your partner to skype in during the implementation of your lessons? etc.)

Our caving exhibition started early in the school year. We have been knee deep in experiences with installation art. Our cave followed suit. We started converting the hall way into a wooded area where you would find a cave in our Pennsylvania hills. The trees were twisted with the help of third and second grade. First grade helped make birds to hang around the trees. Fourth grade and third helped create the bats. Fifth grade helped plaster the terrain inside and out. They created the clay life forms for the water. Sixth grade aided in the completion of putting it all together...a school wide __work__. Meanwhile the We-Teach instructors introduced the ground work for respect for our earthly domain. Two classes, Mrs. Kampian's and Mrs.Lescovitz' classes were given insight on how to tread lightly on our land. Lessons involving animal curiosity with a living creature a ferret, using animal hide to create a shield and all natural materials to complete the work of art and exposure to a new level of learning. The project continues in the classrooms and in the art room. Stories were introduced about lentic and lotic water systems. The students toured the cave for a hands-on experience of our earth. This project stretched across the entire school since the cave looked so cool without the knowledge that they learned a lot about the caving
