I also look at that tree and think of the things we need that are made of wood. I think about the animals that need plants and trees, and the fact that we need the animals. This seems pretty elementary but at first glance, it's what I immediately think of when I think about our dependence on plants.]]> 2017-01-20 21:39:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ksheirl1/ynrov47p93y6/wish/148487043 ksheirl1 https://padlet.com/ksheirl1/ynrov47p93y6/wish/150572775 This is a very simple example for how photosynthesis works. I almost always go with the most basic explanation. I usually find that educational items that are meant for younger learners are what help me most! Knowing how the it starts and why it's necessary, helps me to build on understanding the total process.]]> 2017-01-31 15:58:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ksheirl1/ynrov47p93y6/wish/150572775 ksheirl1 https://padlet.com/ksheirl1/ynrov47p93y6/wish/154043605

This fern is so delicate looking that you expect it to need coddling under glass but the truth is that this native fern is tough and forgiving. Given a woodland setting with filtered light it will spread slowly to make an elegant colony.

After settling onto the tundra, snow and ice it is absorbed into the food chain. The people and creatures there have some of the highest concentrations of toxins in their bodies of anywhere on earth. http://www.theglobaleducationproject.org/earth/global-ecology.php

Life as we know it today began to take shape during this period and while much that has been written about Neolithic culture is speculative, it can be asserted that men and women were becoming more aware of their inter-dependence, of social obligations and of loyalties beyond the immediate family, although evidence here is limited.
