    Hi everyone,

    I just uploaded my lesson plan to the Middle School 2018 folder. We’ll do the lesson on October 12, but I will have assent forms collected and the presurvey completed next week.

    Thanks, Julie

    I’m having to change my dates due to Benchmark Testing and Homecoming!
    Students took the quiz on 9/13

    We’ll be doing the lesson on 9/18-9/20.

    Hi, Claudia!

    I am sorry this is a late request but I was wondering if I could borrow some electronics calipers for the lesson next Tuesday.  I can get them tomorrow or Monday.

    Thanks,

    Mayra

      Hi Mayra, we don’t have electronic calipers. We have 17 manual ones that you can borrow. @michael-ziegler

    Hi,

    I requested access to download a fossil from Morphosource last Thursday and was wondering how long it takes to get access since as of today it says that is pending.  I need to have the 3D printed copies by the end of next week.

    Thanks,

    Mayra

    I was wondering when it will be a good time to pick up the cast of the Sabertooth fossils next week.

    Hello! I plan on implementing my lesson November 6-7. Students will take the survey October 30. Due to scheduling conflicts, I will be doing this as an extension activity with my homeroom after the unit has concluded.

    Hello,

    Hope everybody has been able to enjoy the summer time!  I plan to implement my lesson the second week of school (August 20th) so I was planning on having my students take the survey the first week of school. I will need the link and instructions to the survey preferably by August 13th.  I am very excited as I will be teaching the same g…[Read more]

      Thanks for letting us know, Mayra. We will send the survey links to everyone shortly. We are also making a quick video introducing the survey to the students – per Becca’s great suggestion (thanks, Becca!)

    Hello,

    For my iDigFossils lesson plan, I was wondering if I could borrow a bone from a modern cat and a Sabertooth fossil bone.  I have access to the 3D scans but I would like my students to also see the real samples.  I am planning on doing the lesson the week of August 20th.

    Thanks,

    Mayra

      Hi @mayra-cordero, we have casts of Smilodon that you could borrow. I am still looking into modern cats.
