Author's
Statement
This site is designed to help teachers find Internet resources, such as
information web sites, collaborative projects, and online lesson plans,
that will enhance curriculum. As an educator in New York City, I
have tried to create sites connected to curriculum in New York City schools
or of special interest to urban schools. I began the design of this
site during a technology workshop sponsored by the Bank
Street College of Education and the Center
for Improved Engineering and Science Education at the Stevens
Institute of Technology, and I thank my workshop leaders, Carol Shields
and Davia Franklyn for their support and insight. I would like to
add more web pages to support different curriculum, and to include correlations
to the New York State Standards in the future (don't ask me when, though!).
Enjoy!

Heart of the Earth: The Garden This site provides links
to projects, books, and resources to assist teachers in studying the urban
habitat and creating community gardens.
The
Human Body: Focus on Bones and Muscles This site provides links
to resources that enhance a health and human body curriculum study focused
on the skeletal and muscular system. (The site was designed to connect
to the FOSS Human Body Grades 3-4 curriculum unit.)
