Your Source for All Things LVMS Exploring Terracotta Soldiers: a 6Th Your source for all things LVMS Exploring Terracotta Soldiers: A 6th Grade Social Studies Project The discovery of the terracotta solders of Emperor Qin Shi Huangdi is one of the largest and most incredible archaeological surprises of modern times. Spread out over several acres near the city of Xian, more than 7,500 soldiers have been discovered. They have been silently on guard for over 2,200 years! Sixth grade social studies students participated in a grade wide activity that brought the silent army back to life. After researching the Qin Dynasty and the tomb Shi Huangdi, students imagined what it would be like if some of the emperor’s soldiers could talk. Each student created a unique narrative along with an individualized model of a Chinese warrior. Next, students created audio recordings of their stories and linked them to their soldiers using a QR code. Use the QR reader on your electronic device to scan and listen to a few samples. LONG VALLEY MIDDLE SCHOOL April 2017 The Wonderful World Of The Liberty Science Center By: Haille Mark The huge doors of the Liberty Science Center open as hundreds of people parade inside from families to schools. This hands-on museum is a 4-floor world of science, from the skyscraper exhibit to the touch tunnel, this museum really does have it all. Now, you might be wondering what a touch tunnel is, basically visitors enter a pitch-black tunnel, so they have to use their other senses to make it out. The idea is to see how a blind person would figure things out. The LVMS 6th grade visited this site-to-see museum, and these 6th graders learned a lot while having tons of fun. I realize that sounds corny, but it’s true. As for the learning aspect, out of the many sites to see, here is one a very exciting and cool exhibit… the Language Karaoke Exhibit. This exhibit is located in the communications room, by far, my favorite room. Upon entering the karaoke booth, one is asked to choose a language and the exhibit encourages the visitor to practice a phrase in the foreign language so he or she can record it. My group tried this exhibit out, and let me tell you, it was a blast! As well as this, there is also a room called, “Eat or be Eaten!” This room has dozens of live animals that are interesting no matter your age. One of the many animals included is the Alligator Snapping Turtle-a mean-looking creature. This turtle’s habitat is the southeastern U.S, near Florida. These interesting animals are found in marshes and rivers, and eat fish and other animals found in these areas. This room also has tarantulas, scorpions and much more! “Get the Vibe” is another exhibit that is very exciting. This sound wave experiment is a way to literally see sound waves; “The greater the pitch, the greater the vibration. The greater the volume, the greater the wave size. When the wavelength is greater, the distance between the waves is greater. When the wavelength is smaller, the distance between waves is smaller” says Nicholas Decillis, a 6th grader who tried out this experiment. This very interesting and very exciting exhibit is one to definitely try! Overall, this was one amazing experience and a very enjoyable field trip for the LVMS 6th graders. I personally had a blast seeing all these exhibits and had fun learning about the science. LONG VALLEY MIDDLE SCHOOL April 2017 A Visit To Liberty Science Center By: Amanda Even and Jacqui Olsen This year’s 6th grade went to the Liberty Science Center for their field trip.. It was about a whole school day. It took about 45 minutes to get to the LSC. First when we walked into the Liberty Science Center(LSC) we saw the Hoberman Sphere. It is a expanding silver sphere in the middle of the entrance and elevated in the air. It’s hard to miss it. We split up into groups of 8 or less. Next, our group went to the Skyscraper exhibit. It’s where you walk on a beam that is 2 floors up, elevated up in the air. You have a harness on so you don’t fall. Safety first! The line was long, but it was worth the wait. Next, we only had time to go to the gift shop before lunch. It was filled with fun and exciting gifts that everyone can enjoy. For example, they have freeze dried ice cream that came in different flavors like Neapolitan, ice cream sandwiches, chocolate ice cream, and mint chocolate chip ice cream. They also had different science experiments to use when you get home. Our personal favorite item they had was the silly putty. There was Aaron’s Thinking Putty, glow in the dark putty, color-changing putty, and planet putty. After that, our group started to work on our projects. The project is when you pick an exhibit from the LSC and write about what you learned from it and what it is about. We also had to get a picture. We worked on it with our phones, but if you didn’t have one, you had to draw it. Before we finished our projects, we had time to go on the Infinity Climber. It was confusing to navigate so we got lost a few times, but we found our way out. It is a climber that is on the ceiling on the third floor. From the windows facing towards New York City, the view was amazing. We got to see a lot because our projects were on different floors of the museum. We had just enough time to go in the Touch Tunnel. It is a dark tunnel when you have to feel your way through the end. There were cameras watching us just in case. We would have had enough time to go a second time, but we didn’t want to risk missing the movie. We had a couple of minutes just to look around before the IMAX movie started. The exhibits in the Liberty Science Center were a fun experience and we hope to go again soon. The exhibits were fun, but the IMAX was better in our opinion. All the 6th graders watched “Dream Big.” It is about engineering. Engineering is when people do construction. The first part was about how they built the tallest buildings. They showed us that if you put anything at an arch or you curve the building, it is sturdier. They built bridges and waterproof robots. It was also about never giving up on what you want to achieve in life. Engineering is multiple tiny pieces put together to create a bigger objects or constructing something. Without engineering the word would be lost. An IMAX movie is a movie theater where the movie is all around you in a dome. The seats are going around the movie theater in a stair like formation. The IMAX movie was a inspirational movie and we would love to go back to see another IMAX movie another time. The LSC was a blast! Our group wished we could stay longer, but the day had to end eventually. Our group had 7 people, but that was the average amount in a group. In our group was Katie Dore, Kelsey Holveck, Sarah Vaughn, Brianna Lugo, Ashley Braunstein, than ourselves, Jacqui Olsen and Amanda Even. One of our favorite parts was the Touch Tunnel. It was so funny when we saw other people on the screen. Nothing could be better than the IMAX movie though. We were so sad when we had to leave, but we hoped to go again soon. LONG VALLEY MIDDLE SCHOOL April 2017 House 7-3’s Spotlight on Twins and Triplets Kat and Nina Liloia Norah and Hirschelle Bumrah I’ve always thought of myself as a blessed individual. How is it being a twin? For one thing, it isn’t exactly easy, After all, unlike most people, I’ve had a best friend since I it’s a journey. Though annoying at times, having a twin is a gift was born and a best friend for life. I always get the question, worth more than infinite Christmas presents. When I was around “What is it like being a twin?”. Having a twin means never 5 or 6, it was always great having a twin because I was able to being alone up in your room with nothing to do. You have a express my feelings without feeling ashamed or sad. Though I am companion to play fun jokes on other people. It means having a boy, I have a twin sister who looks nothing like me. In fact, it took over a month for my friends to figure out that I had a twin someone you can laugh with and having the feeling that you sister! When I started getting older, my sister and I got really into will never be alone. Although having an “other half” is very sports, and we luckily had the opportunity to always play convivial, there are some downsides. Imagine taking a blame basketball or other sports together. Being able to practice with an for something you didn't do because your twin wants to go to actual person instead of alone motivated me to become better at their friends house and forgot to do their homework. How sports. It’s always great to have someone to hang out with when about getting your hair yanked because you wore their your friends can’t, especially when you know them better than favorite shirt.

  • Let Justice Roll Down: the Civil Rights Movement Through Film (1954-1965)
    Curriculum Units by Fellows of the Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute 1998 Volume I: The Use and Abuse of History in Film and Video Let Justice Roll Down: The Civil Rights Movement Through Film (1954-1965) Curriculum Unit 98.01.06 by Joan Rapczynski The curriculum unit I have chosen will be incorporated into the United States History II course that is required of all eleventh graders in the city of New Haven. The unit will focus on the Civil Rights Movement during the years 1954-1965. In my past years of teaching American History, one of my goals was to make history come alive and be exciting for my students. I used a variety of techniques in the classroom recognizing the fact that students learn in a multitude of ways. One method I have found to be extremely successful is the use of visual materials. Films can bring a lesson to life. They can play a vital role in stirring up social issues of the past. Hollywood, as well as independent film companies have created many films that address the issues of the civil rights movement. In viewing a film students can acquire an incredible amount of comprehensive knowledge on a topic. Film visually recreates the time period for students. They are able to see physical gestures, cadences of speech, style of dress, style of architecture, as well as experience the environment. After viewing and discussing the film, students are usually amazed at the amount of factual knowledge they acquired while they were being entertained. I have found it to be an unusual instance when a classroom lecture can have the same impact as a powerful film.

  • Winter 2006 the Official Newsletter of Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site Volume 3, Issue 1
    National Park Service Park News U.S. Department of the Interior Constitutional Writes Winter 2006 The official newsletter of Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site Volume 3, Issue 1 Members of the “Little Rock Nine” unveil statues of themselves on the grounds of the Arkansas State Capitol. Photo courtesy of the Arkansas Secretary of State’s Office. Hundreds of people gathered on the State Capitol grounds August 30th to witness the Little Rock Nine unveil life size statues of themselves. Tears, hugs and cheers filled the air as the covers concealing the statues hit the ground. Forty-eight years ago Orval Faubus occupied the governor’s office at the Capitol. Now the Little Rock Nine are represented on the same grounds where Faubus ordered the Arkansas National Guard to keep them from entering Central High School. Arkansas State Senators Tracy Steele and Irma Hunter Brown sponsored legislation to have the statues erected on the grounds of the State Capitol. Sculptors John and Kathy Deering worked for more than five years to create the statues. They were inspired to create the statues after the opening of the Central High School NHS Visitor Center in 1997. “…It was almost as if I could see a finished sculpture of the Little Rock Nine in my mind’s eye.” Deering said. “I was inspired to create “Testament” through the historical significance of the event and the images of the Nine I had seen in photographs.” Also on that day the U.S. Postal Service unveiled a stamp depicting the Little Rock Nine as part of a stamp series called To Form a More Perfect Union.
