Feel free to try out a new lesson and a couple of other downloadables

[Gwen Nicodemus]

I haven't sent an email out to this list in a long while, and I have put some new stuff up on the web site. Feel free to download any of these that will be of use to you. Comments and corrections are always appreciated. These links are direct. You don't need to sign in or anything to get them.

• Taxonomy: This taxonomy lesson is designed for older kids, fourth grade and above. Younger kids can help out the older students with some parts, but they probably won't benefit as much from them.
  
  
• Book report forms and a book review checklist: There's a K-2 book report form, a 3-5 book report form, and a book review checklist for older kids.
  
  
• Piano practice workbook: This is a simple log for marking off piano practice. This works with my daughter, not with my son. The log could be used for marking off anything really.
  
  
• Bones and joints: This is a video on bones and joints. It's target audience is third grade-ish.
  
  
• Fossils: This is a video on fossils. It's target audience is third grade-ish.
  
  
• Periodic table: This is a very brief introduction to the periodic table. Target audience is third grade-ish.
  
  
• Relative sizes: This video is designed to give kids an idea of the sizes of things. I think it's appropriate for any grade level.
  
  
• Weathering and soil: The target audience for this video on weathering and soil is sixth grade.
