3. Math Summary Math Lesson Overviewby Mike RodgersonEDE 6206 Spring 2010My lesson as it relates to our interthematic unit is a math lesson about comparing and ordering numbers. This is a real world skill that can be used by students throughout their academic careers and on into the real world. My lesson uses real world data collected by the students from on line data bases. The students collect various data about the number of soldiers killed in specific battles and in the war as a whole. Through active learning, the students will compare the number killed in one battle with the number killed in other battles. The students will use individual white boards to show their understanding of which number is larger..

4. Science Summary Science Lesson Overviewby S. Melita Hadley, B.S.Students will review different diseases that confronted the Civil War soldiers and how the medical personnel addressed their care. Students will learn that bacteria related deaths totaled more than battle wound deaths. Students will research the different disease states by visiting various web sites, reviewing reports, conducting research, collaborating and discussing medically related issues pertinent then and now in and outside of class. Students will gain a better understanding on how simple hygiene protocols can prevent disease and death. Students will make a field trip to a local Civil War Museum. The ITU will culminate with student groups presenting posters and science projects on disease states, medical technology & knowledge sharing, and how working together can alleviate suffering. It is the hopes of this instructor, that students will be motivated to learn more about their world and how they can make it better for all humankind.

5. Music Summary Music Lesson Overview Kristine A. Rodriguez The focus of the music lesson is on the power of song to bring people together, even in times of great divide. Students will study the hidden meanings of spirituals sung by slaves as they prepared for their journey to freedom. They will read poems written by soldiers and learn battlecries of the North and the South. Students will learn the significance of music to energize the war effort, and to give hope to the suffering. The culminating activity will be a performance of Civil War music for an invited audience.

7. Sunshine State Standards Science by S. M. Hadley: * SC.G.1.3.3 The student understands that the classification of living things is based on a given set of criteria and is a tool for understanding biodiversity and interrelationships. * SC.H.1.3.1 The student knows that a scientific knowledge is subject to modification as new information challenges prevailing theories and as a new theory leads to looking at old observations in a new way. * SC.H.1.3.2 The student know that the study of the events that led scientists to discoveries can provide information about the inquiry process and its effects. *SC.H.1.3.6 The student recognizes the scientific contributions that are made by individuals of diverse backgrounds, interests, talents, and motivations. *SC.H.3.3.6 The student knows that no matter who does science and mathematics or invents things, or when or where they do it, the knowledge and technology that result can eventually become available to everyone. *SC.H.3.3.7 The student knows that computers speed up and extend people’s ability to collect, sort, and analyze data; prepare research reports; and share data and ideas with other. FELE *SC.8.N.4.2: Explain how political, social, and economic concerns can affect science, and vice versa. FTCE *SC.K.N.1.1: Collaborate with a partner to collect information. *SC.K.N.1.2: Make observations of the natural world and know that they are descriptors collected using the five senses. *SC.K.N.1.3: Keep records as appropriate -- such as pictorial records -- of investigations conducted. *SC.K.N.1.4: Observe and create a visual representation of an object which includes its major features. *SC.K.N.1.5: Recognize that learning can come from careful observation.

13. Culminating Activities Science: Students will break off into three groups. Three groups will be assigned one of three outcomes: 1) Bacterial Disease and Civil War Soldiers, 2) Medical Technology & Knowledge Sharing Then and Now, 3) Working Together to Alleviate Suffering – Then and Now. Each group will create a science project/poster for presentation at the annual science fair.

14. Culminating Activities (cont) Music: Students will study poems, music, and lifestyles of Civil War era soldiers and slaves. They will be assigned discussion groups to explore content of the music covered. Students will then perform “Songs of Freedom,” a musical collection of period spirituals and patriotic songs for an invited audience of students, families, and staff at an assembly.

15. Culminating Activity (cont) Math: The students will work in small groups with dry erase boards to identify number that are greater than or less than using real world data from the Civil War period.

16. Science Assessments by S. M. Hadley • The students will be able to perform the following by the end of the school year (August through May term) with 70% degree of accuracy/completion: Rubric in percentages = 100%, or A+· 5% Name the three most prevalent disease states of Civil War soldiers.
