Ted Miracle, Science, Devonshire ES
Synopsis
This curriculum unit is designed to offer upper elementary students the opportunity to read, research, and complete a poster project as well as design a memorial to a noted scientist, mathematician, or engineer. I will collaborate with third grade teachers in this curriculum unit because biographies are a major literacy focus in third grade. The unit is appropriate for fourth and fifth grade as well. Care will be taken to include scientists, mathematicians, and engineers from a wide variety of backgrounds in order to highlight scientific contributions from a broad cross-section of American society including female and minority scientists, engineers, and mathematicians. This is particularly important at Devonshire Elementary because of the demographics of the school.
