Back to the K - 2nd Grade audio visit project!

Greetings to all K-2nd Teachers and Staff!

This part of the website describes a bit more detail about the project and what to ask of the students.

This is a visit is a different experience that the students are used to here at the MuseOn. It makes the visit more dynamic and frees up teachers to decide when to do it. It is meant to be a short activity, spanning around 17 minutes from start to finish. This fits easily into any break period. This exhibit is an auditory exhibit that will have the students travelling around the campus in order to understand the many implications the concept of flow can have to the individual and the surrounding environment. The visit was structured according to the curricula of the focused classes. We will be touching base with some of the units the students either have studied or will study. So it will act as an educational tool for them and you. You will be required to choose an area of the school that has plants, or trees. We will be doing the activities in that area. The transition time from the classroom to the outside area, is of about 3 minutes. This is when the robot music happens in the beginning, and the line leader is doing the robot moves all other students have to copy. If you feel that there is not enough time in the transition period, then please pause the audio if your find it necessary.

I would like to ask for you to document as well as possible all parts of the audio visit. I want to make an end of the year film with the students doing the activity. So please upload all videos and images into this folder.

The students are to complete an activity after the visit. This can, of course, be done during another break. They are required to create a family tree that encompasses more than immediate family members. They are invited to include other living beings in their trees. It might be a good idea to show what a biologist understands to be a life tree. Below is a picture for reference. Please upload all family tree images to the above mentioned Google folder.

For the visit, you will need one blue-tooth enabled audio box, or something you can plug your phone into and amplify the sound!

If you have any questions please be sure to ask me whenever you can.

Thanks to all,

Daniel
