Leaf Collection Project -Native American Knowledge of Indigenous Plants
Background: Indigenous people have been using medicine harvested from various parts of plants since time immemorial. Aspirin, for example, is made from refined salicin. Salicin is found in nature in high abundance in willow bark, a medicine Native Americans traditionally chewed or brewed into teas for aches and pains. One would be hard-pressed to find an endemic plant in the United States that did not have some medicinal or cultural value to Indigenous people.Objective: By completing this projec

Observations vs. Inferences (with two truths and a lie!)
Lesson Overview: Oh, the power of observations and inferences - they are imperative to science! Not to mention that they are a great way to let your students get to know you, and a great way to get to know your new students. Observations and inferences can be taught by providing students with a small item that represents who you are or why you teach - ask them to observe and infer what that item means to you. For example, my students analyze one of my favorite pieces of wall art, a sketch of a h
