Christy Elmer Standard G: Science Applications Title: Oscar Pistorius and His Prosthetic Legs [|Oscar and his legs] Grade Level: 5th and above Description: This is an article from the Huffington Post and has a video with it as well, talking about Oscar and participating in the upcoming Olympics. The video shares about Oscar’s life and training. This is a great piece to get students thinking about many different things. How prosthetic limbs help people, how they work, reflecting on their own life, and examining the question the article puts to us. Will this hinder Oscar in the Olympics or give him an unfair advantage over the other runners?

Katie Grady //**Standard G: Science Application**// //**Title:**////Science and Industry Museum-Chicago// //**Link:**////[|Science/Industry] ([])// //**Grade Level:**////Prek-8// //**Description:**////On this website, I was able to look at the exhibit of the German U-Boat, there is a link to get more information, and then another link for learning tools. In the section of learning tools, there is a teacher’s manual that gives a lot of information about the exhibit, information about the history, ideas for pre, during, and post fieldtrip, and great activities such as how to float in the water, how to make fresh water, and how to tell your story. A person could explore information about the smart home-green and wired as well. When exploring the site further videos and interactive games can also be found to enhance various science concepts.// //**Connection to the Standard:**////This standard is about how science and technology work hand in hand, the information shared on this website looks at science and how it enhances or works with industry and technology to make the world a better or safer place.//
