WELCOME TO A SMART PROJECT! The following project is currently under progress by Rhode Island teachers. Although in some activities, the teachers have borrowed and adapted ideas from other teachers and current programs and sources on the Internet, the work is their own. The activities are displayed here in their original form , unedited as they have submitted them. In most cases, these are ongoing projects. The names, school districts, and email addresses of the authors are included. Please feel free to contact the authors with any suggestions, comments, or even participation.Teaching and learning are cooperative efforts. WILDLIFE, WOLVES, ENDANGERED SPECIES PROJECT OVERVIEW: Veazie Street School is an Apple Lighthouse School. Each classroom is equipped with Macintosh computers and there is a computer lab. All of the computers in the building are networked. Children and teachers at every grade level will have the opportunity to use the Internet to access resources and information from around the world. The purpose of this SMART project is to provide Internet locations that are available to teachers for further exploration of themes included in The Providence School Department Literacy Curriculum Guides. Reading, writing, listening, speaking, science, math and social studies are integrated in thematic units within the curriculum.

Due to the extensive database on the internet, the list generated has only relevant information and therefore is not complete in its inclusion of all aspects of the great ape conservation. For students and those enrolled in higher levels of education, GRASP provides a list of schools and universities world-wide that teach primatology and/or great ape studies. A short description of the course is given, based on available and known information. It is recommended that interested individual contact the universities or schools directly for up to date information on the status of the courses.

The Prairie Wetlands Learning Center, located near Fergus Falls, Minnesota, is a 325-acre (130-hectare) outdoor classroom operated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It is composed of native and restored prairie, more than two dozen wetlands, and an oak savanna, but it is also a residential environmental education facility. The visitor center has classrooms, an exhibit area, breakout lounges, kitchen, and dining hall. A renovated barn and surrounding lawn area provide additional teaching space. The Center offers a wide variety of educational programs to over 11,000 students each year. One of the Center's more popular programs is on endangered species. The goals and objectives of the endangered species program are to enable students to distinguish between endangered, threatened, and "special concern" species; the current issues and the measures involved tot the protection of these species; information on what roles the Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, Forest Service, and other government agencies serve; the function of partnerships with private non-profit groups and landowners; and ways individuals can help endangered species.

This week, Education World introduces you to sites featuring this amazing raptor and provides you with activities that will help you and your students explore the falcon's return from near extinction. In a news release last August, Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt proposed removing the peregrine falcon from the endangered species list. In his statement, Babbit called the bird "one of the most dramatic success stories of the Endangered Species Act." The peregrine falcon, once found in great numbers on every continent in the world, nearly became extinct when the use of the pesticide DDT became widespread following World War II. DDT not only killed the falcons directly, it also affected their nesting behavior and caused female peregrines to lay eggs with very thin shells that broke during incubation. Restrictions placed on the use of DDT in 1972 and extensive reintroduction projects have finally resulted in the recovery of the American peregrine falcon and saved it from extinction.

The Adopt-a-Classroom program teaches kids to be a friend in return. Through the program, parents and community members provide elementary-school classes with subscriptions to KIND News , an award-winning classroom newspaper that emphasizes concepts like compassion, respect, and responsibility. The monthly newspaper is published by the National Association for Humane and Environmental Education (NAHEE) , The HSUS's youth education affiliate, and is currently read by more than a million children nationwide. KIND News (the acronym stands for Kids In Nature's Defense) includes articles, short fiction, activities, and projects that teach children simple, everyday ways of showing kindness to people, animals, and the environment. Teachers use the paper to supplement their science, reading, writing, and character education curricula. Topics covered in KIND News range from pet care to living with wildlife to getting along with peers. In the September 2005 issue of

This week, Education World puts the diversity of rare plants and animals to work in lessons that will tame the most ferocious of five- to fifteen-year-olds. As their populations dwindle, the number of endangered and threatened species catalogued by groups like the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service continues to grow, drawing attention to the need for increased awareness about the plight of rare animals and plants. And because of their "wild" nature, students love endangered species. Take time out during this year's observance of Earth Day to focus on the rarest of gems endangered animals and plants with lessons that emphasize research and real-life!

Classroom Ideas Click here for a printable version. Kindergarten Through Fourth Grade Grades Five Through Eight Grades Nine Through Twelve Suggestions for Incorporating Radio Expeditions Into Lessons Have students present reports in the form of a radio program or interview, in a style similar to that of Radio Expeditions . This will give them a chance to incorporate the radio format into their own work and to practice expressing their ideas to a listening audience. Suggestions for Teaching Biodiversity For all the activities below we encourage you to incorporate clips from the Radio Expeditions programs. Top Kindergarten Through Fourth Grade Illustrating Interdependence Through Role-Playing Have students list animals they see near their school or homes. Then hold a class discussion, asking students to consider the following questions: What do the animals eat? Where do they live? How do they depend on the plants around them? What would happen if one important type of plant no longer existed? Illustrating Endangerment Have students draw pictures of endangered animals, their food sources, and their habitats. Discuss the consequences of removing a food source or habitat feature. Talk also about what it means for a species to be endangered, as opposed to threatened. (Endangered species are in immediate danger of extinction, while threatened species are declining in number and might become endangered if nothing is done to help them.)
