All,
I have to start allocating the last bit of $$ for equipment and I
wanted to check to see if there were any items or materials I had
forgotten.
I am getting a Topo map for the Garmin GPS so that you will have
detailed map info for any area in the Northeast.
Also I am exchanging one of the CBL2's for another LabQuest which is
the easy to use unit for collecting and displaying probe data. Also I
will get another pH probe and dissolved Oxygen probe. Also I will see
if we can get a soil temp probe so that you could easily measure the
soil temp in the school yard or elsewhere.
I will get a bunch of posterboard for the Building Math: Stranded
activity on collecting water. I think there is enough material for
the Everest: Gearing Up activity.
I can get more dice for the How the West Was 1 game if you would
like.
I will bring a couple more copies of Best of Bugs and Just Passing
Through which are good math/science/engineering activities for the
younger grades.
Anything else anyone can think of? I feel like I forgot something...
maybe not.
Enough meters sticks? Digital thermometers?
Hope you all are staying dry there!! Any pics of tornadoes or other
crazy weather you've been having?
Cheers!

Greg:
Consider the purchase of ONE additional Oregon GPS in exchange for a
CBL2 (both are approximately $300 MSRP if I remember correctly) - will
simplify future training/instruction and enable users to perform
different applications at the same time.
Did you purchase a 1GB memory card (or better) for compact digital
camera? Due to small size, 32MB card included w/ new camera is nearly
useless.
And don't forget AA batteries...
Weather here stinks, although I'm sure it will improve in September.
Basic probability and Murphy's law nearly guarantee a picture-perfect
month!
Best,
Mark

Thanks Denise, Mark,
I'll see if we have enough for the second Oregon 200. AA batteries
are on the list. The camera should have at least a 1 or 2 GB memory
card in it now. I'll add a bunch of posterboard for all the Building
Math stuff.
Sound good!
I'll be on vacation next week in the Adirondacks of NY. Enjoy!
