Description
Study of Place is a collection of two, approximately two-week-long science modules for middle-school students (grades 5-8).
Antarctic Exploration explores the relationship between the expanse of sea ice and seasonal change, framed by the story of Sir Ernest Shackleton's 1914 expedition to Antarctica and how, when his ship became icebound and was crushed to pieces, he and his crew survived before being rescued 2 years after their journey began.
Oceans Currents Exploration explores the mysterious Gulf Stream, framed by the story of Benjamin Franklin's quest to explain why English ships carrying mail to the American colonies took two weeks longer to cross the Atlantic than colonial merchant ships going the other way.
The Teacher Guide includes the entire Student Guide (available separately) plus additional support materials and resources.
