Leader: This activity is in two parts and requires participants
to work with a partner in the second part. Please make sure
that everyone has a partner before beginning the activity.
Help participants keep track of the time.
Think of
one of your lesson plans. How does it relate to the five geographic
skills? Take five to seven minutes to break your lesson
down according to the five geographic skills. Does your lesson
include all of the skills? Does it have a focused inquiry question?
What kinds of geographic information does your lesson use? Are
there any methods of acquiring information, organizing information
or analysis presentation that you saw in the case study or classroom
segments that might work as well or better than your current
method? What was one idea that you saw presented that you'd
like to try?
Spend the
remaining time discussing your lesson with a partner.
