Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including km, m, cm; kg, g; lb, oz.; l, ml; hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents in a two-column table. For example, know that 1 ft is 12 times as long as 1 in. Express the length of a 4 ft snake as 48 in. Generate a conversion table for feet and inches listing the number pairs (1, 12), (2, 24), (3, 36),

Each stop has different attachments that the students can interact with; videos, images and then 360 panoramic photos. Each location on the map has unique featrues to it. Some come with descriptions of what is at the location. Some have pictures either of the Maoi, other stone or other features such as the town, and landscape. Some of the locations also have videos that the students can view about that place on the map. Besides the interactive map there is also a game the students can play to try and move the Moai. To supplement the game students can read the past attempts of how people have moved the Maoi in the past. There is also texts that students will read to learn about both the island and the Maoi. ]]> 2016-11-08 14:38:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136100743 Lesson Objective cstrong555 https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136100972 After students have completed a virtual tour of Easter Island, they will measure distance between specified locations on a provided map, record their data on a worksheet, and demonstrate understanding of metric units of measurement and verbally justify their reason for choosing the best fit unit of measurement for this activity. ]]> 2016-11-08 14:38:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136100972 Brief Discription of Interactive Activity cstrong555 https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136101080 The students will refer to thinglink for directions on how to navigate the virtual field trip and its sequential stops. These stops include history of Easter Island and the Maoi, help for representing different units, the metric system and the tour of Easter Island. After reading the history sections the students will then explore the island stops that are within . After completing their virtual tour the student will work within their science worksheet to measure their distances using kilometers. The distances they will be measuring represent the distances that the Moai have been moved from the quarry around the Island. Before receiving their measuring tool the students will have to verbally confirm which unit makes the most sense to measure the distances with. ]]> 2016-11-08 14:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136101080 Benefits of Field Trip cstrong555 https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136101235 *Provides cultural enrichment
*Attempt to build an appreciation of the arts and culture
*Provide less-advangage children with the opportunity to have experiences that they wouldn't be able to have otherwise.
*Increase historical empathy.
*Students are able to recall a great deal of information about their field trip.
*Spark interest in activities or places they otherwise would not know about. (Ex. an art museum.) ]]> 2016-11-08 14:39:42 UTC https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136101235 How to Assess Learning cstrong555 https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136101391 *Pre assessments and post assessments are a good tool to utilize when trying to determine what knowledge the students gained through a field trip visit.
* Field trips designed with activities before, during, and after motivate students to learn content
*Surveys to monitor the shaping of attitude before after the field trip.
*There are many different techniques that can be used to asses learning. For a field trip agreement circles would work out very well. The students would be asked a question and then would be able to either go to the outside of the circle or the inside of the circle. Then the students would be able to defend to a partner they choose what they thought. ]]> 2016-11-08 14:40:04 UTC https://padlet.com/cstrong555/3mo7vrpcvdqj/wish/136101391
