  • Mcconaghy House Teacher Packet Contains Historical Information About the Mcconaghy Family, Surrounding Region, and American Lifestyle
    1 WELCOME TO THE McCONAGHY HOUSE! Visiting the McConaghy House is an exciting field trip for students and teachers alike. Docent-led school tours of the house focus on local history, continuity and change, and the impact of individuals in our community. The house allows students to step into the past and experience and wonder about the life of a farming family. The McConaghy House is also an example of civic engagement as the community mobilized in the 1970’s to save the house from pending demolition. Through the efforts of concerned citizens, an important part of our local history has been pre- served for future generations to enjoy. The McConaghy House Teacher Packet contains historical information about the McConaghy family, surrounding region, and American lifestyle. Included are pre and post visit lesson plans, together with all necessary resources and background information. These lessons are not required for a guided visit but will greatly enrich the experience for students. The lessons can be completed in any order, though recommendations have been made for ease of implementation. We welcome comments and suggestions about the usefulness of this packet in your classroom. An evaluation form is enclosed for your feedback. Thank you for booking a field trip to the McConaghy House. We look forward to seeing you and your students!

    2015 BART Station Profile Study Station Profiles – Non-Home Origins STATION PROFILES – NON-HOME ORIGINS This section contains a summary sheet for selected BART stations, based on data from customers who travel to the station from non-home origins, like work, school, etc. The selected stations listed below have a sample size of at least 200 non-home origin trips: • 12th St. / Oakland City Center • Glen Park • 16th St. Mission • Hayward • 19th St. / Oakland • Lake Merritt • 24th St. Mission • MacArthur • Ashby • Millbrae • Balboa Park • Montgomery St. • Civic Center / UN Plaza • North Berkeley • Coliseum • Oakland International Airport (OAK) • Concord • Powell St. • Daly City • Rockridge • Downtown Berkeley • San Bruno • Dublin / Pleasanton • San Francisco International Airport (SFO) • Embarcadero • San Leandro • Fremont • Walnut Creek • Fruitvale • West Dublin / Pleasanton Maps for these stations are contained in separate PDF files at www.bart.gov/stationprofile. The maps depict non-home origin points of customers who use each station, and the points are color coded by mode of access. The points are weighted to reflect average weekday ridership at the station. For example, an origin point with a weight of seven will appear on the map as seven points, scattered around the actual point of origin. Note that the number of trips may appear underrepresented in cases where multiple trips originate at the same location. The following summary sheets contain basic information about each station’s weekday non-home origin trips, such as: • absolute number of entries and estimated non-home origin entries • access mode share • trip origin types • customer demographics. Additionally, the total number of car and bicycle parking spaces at each station are included for context.

The nets are a fine mesh, nearly invisible, but flexible and fine enough so that when a bird flies into them, it is held safely, ready to be carefully removed by hand, placed into a small cloth bag to calm it, and tucked under a jacket or shirt to keep warm for the walk back to the station office. There it is weighed, measured, evaluated for health and either banded, or if already banded, logged, and then carefully released.
