Kentucky – A State Unit Study http://www.easyfunschool.com/article2250.html by HOST egroup This mini unit on KENTUCKY uses the cross curricular approach to education. There are several activities from different academic subjects for you to choose from. One of the most important things is to have fun! Andrew Johnson: A Presidential Unit http://www.easyfunschool.com/article2249.html Andrew Johnson was the 17th president of the United States. He was born 29 December 1808 in Raleigh, North Carolina. He became president upon Abraham Lincoln’s assassination and finished serving out the time remaining in Lincoln’s second term. Introducing the Letter Tt http://www.easyfunschool.com/article2256.html Here are lots of good ideas from all over the place for introducing the letter T. Most of these activities use the across-the-curriculum approach. These ideas are not just for preschoolers, but can be used remedially for any level, and for teaching students whose first language is not English. Getting More Out Of Movies http://www.easyfunschool.com/article2259.html by Kathryn Stout For teenagers trying to avoid reading fiction, movies can be used to help teach the elements of literature as well as comprehension, reasoning and composition skills required in high school English. However, all students can benefit from learning how a filmmaker uses visual effects and sounds to accomplish in moments what may require several paragraphs or even pages of prose. This makes movies a useful supplement to any English program.
