    MOLLY OF DENALI Episode Descriptions and Curriculum Episodes #101-139 NOTE: EPISODE NUMBERS ARE NOT IN BROADCAST ORDER EPISODE 101: Grandpa’s Drum Molly finds an old photo of Grandpa as a child and is shocked to see him singing and drumming—Grandpa never sings. When Grandpa tells her he lost his songs when he gave his drum away, Molly goes on a mission to find his drum and return his songs to him. Curriculum: IT Learning Goals: To compare texts and integrate information across multiple textual sources when reading or researching (this could, but need not, lead to writing or developing a presentation). Molly and Tooey look at landmarks in a photo taken in the past and compare them to how the landmarks look in the present. To use a variety of language, navigational, structural, and graphical text features (like a photograph) to help access (read, listen to, and/or view) or convey (write, speak, and/or present, including visually) meaning (which vary depending upon the type of informational text). Graphical Feature: Photograph. Molly and Tooey examine an old photograph to find clues that help them discover what town the photograph was taken in. Social Studies: Collect and examine photographs of the past and compare with similar, current images. Classify events as belonging to past or present. Molly compares an old photograph to new images of towns in Alaska to discover what town the photograph was taken in. Alaska Native Value: Honoring your elders. Knowing who you are — you are an extension of your family. Continuing the practice of Native traditions.
