Teachers can explore other tabs about Ellis Island (with pictures, videos, and audio associated to 10 stops), Immigration Stories, and Immigration Data, and give a historical timeline. There also is a tab titled "Virtual Field Trip to Ellis Island" where teachers can find an interview with National Park Rangers who work at Ellis Island so students can learn more about how Ellis Island worked in the past as well as learn about how Ellis Island is now.]]> 2020-03-24 15:05:56 UTC https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472919127 amw36 https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472919730 Our activity to accompany the field trip follows our lesson on fractions. We will teach students to add fractions with unlike denominators. Then we will look at the data gathered between 1870 and 1919 and add premade unlike denominator fractions that were made from the data and see what fraction of the total people that came during 1870-1919 came from 2 places. This will make students think about where the most people came from when they came to Ellis Island.]]> 2020-03-24 15:06:12 UTC https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472919730 amw36 https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472921162 Students will learn the history of Ellis Island, immigration, and the process that immigrants had to go through to live in America. This field trip is interactive and engaging. Students can flip through the different stops, engaging in hands on and minds on content. Additionally, this field trip incorporates mathematics into a history lesson, integrating the material. This field trip may also inspire students to learn more about their families history or experience with immigrating to America. This also creates an interesting independent practice assignment because students can learn from their family members and share this information with the class.]]> 2020-03-24 15:06:47 UTC https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472921162 amw36 https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472921583 Following a lesson on producing equivalent fractions, students will demonstrate an understanding of how to add fractions with unlike denominators by answering questions using immigration data from the Ellis Island virtual field trip. ]]> 2020-03-24 15:06:58 UTC https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472921583 amw36 https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472921912 5th grade ]]> 2020-03-24 15:07:06 UTC https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472921912 amw36 https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472922252 NY-5.NF.1-Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators.

Discusses how cemeteries are interdisciplinary. Examples of subjects you can use a cemetery include: Science, art, history, an math. The article also comments on how you can use each of these subjects at a cemmetery.

Article: I gardening
Discusses how gardens are interdisciplinary. You can combine  content from math, ELA, and social studies.This article also comments on how you can use each of these comments in an e-garden.

Article: When Curriculum Meets Art
Discusses how you can use art in curriculum. Possible ways to use art work in many subjects include using it in English or History lessons. Another one we thought of was using art in Math for concepts such as geometry.

What does this all prove?
We can use field trips to enhance learning in all subject areas.]]> 2020-03-24 15:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/amw36/kfbtc80jvocx/wish/472923360
