This was also the land of the Cayuse Indians. This teacher’s guide to the Whitman Mission Museum (Washington) is designed to develop an understanding of the two strong, vibrant cultures that met and eventually clashed at the Whitman Mission. The guide presents general information and is divided into the following sections: (1) “Cayuse Indians”; (2) “Whitmans and the Pioneers”; (3) “Science Activities”; (4) “Art Activities”; (5) “Math Activities”; (6) “Map Activities”; (7) “Writing/Spelling”; (8) “Physical Education Activities”; (9) “Social Studies”; and (10) “Appendix.” The appendix includes recipes, books, and films that are available… Continue Reading →

These professional core values consist of for example, sensitivity to the interests and needs of children, the ambition… Continue Reading →

The teaching activities feature the earth, exploration into space, and the other worlds in the solar system. The teacher’s guide contains four modules. Module I suggests the use of several multi-media experiences to set the stage for the activities that follow. Module II, “The Solar System,” incorporates teaching activities dealing with rounding numbers, estimation of sums, differences, products and quotients, graphing, and the application of these skills in problem solving. Module III, “The Space Shuttle,” addresses the use of the space shuttle and stresses the mathematical concepts of ratio and proportion. Module IV,”The Space Colony,” uses geometric concepts as… Continue Reading →
