Un-professional Development

I call this Un-professional Development because little I do here is done in any sytematic form as expected from “Professionals”. This will be a wander through the unknown! I plan on using this blog as a way to share my (few) good ideas, lesson plans, tutorials and resources as I stumble across them. Certainly there won’t be something for everybody, but maybe there will be something for somebody!

Students "Explore" Geo-Caching

Students in grade 7 and 8 began to explore the high tech treasure hunt game called Geo-caching on Friday March 31st. The grade 7 and 8 girls began during their outdoor phys ed. period, and the boys will do the same during theirs. The students used a hand held GPS unit to look for a hidden “cache”. Inside each cache is a small notepad for the student to record the time they visited, plus some various small “prizes” the students could trade for. There were a few “minor” glitches but overall the kids (and adults) enjoyed the beautiful spring morning and a good walk through the neighborhood.

A group of girls find the cache!
