ON THE MARK
Verizon Thinkfinity helps you celebrate with a collection of lessons
and interactives that let your class set a poem to music, examine the
poetics of Hip Hop, find the poetry in photographs and read “From the
Bellybutton of the Moon and other Summer Poems.” From A to Z (well, Y
anyway), we’ve got your poetry resources covered!
Whether they’re in first grade or 12th, an understanding of
spending, saving and other financial concepts is important for
children. With Verizon Thinkfinity’s Financial Literacy Month lessons and activities,
your students will set financial goals and learn to save towards them,
understand how banks work, become economic advisors to the President,
and use a compound interest calculator to understand credit card debt.
You can also access EconEdLink's complete collection of personal finance resources! Tycoon training starts here!
Puzzles,
dice, addresses, puppetry, the American flag and a Big Mac and fries –
what do these all have in common? They are all innovative activities
that will teach students the importance of math skills. These and many
others are available on Verizon Thinkfinity’s Mathematics Awareness
Month feature. It’s as easy as pi – check them out now!
Earth Day, April 22, is a great opportunity to teach kids to think
globally and act locally for a clean and sustainable environment. We
make it easy to join the more than one billion people in 190 countries
that are taking action for Earth Day by offering a variety of
fascinating lessons on everything from animal diversity, weather basics
and coral reel connections to energy use, food webs and green roof
design. Show your students how they can make a difference in their world.
