Thanks, a colleague of mine who is a specially designed PE teacher got a Kohl Fellowship, which means piles of money, to develop lifelong activities for students. She bought a bunch of GPS units but has done nothing more with them. I offered to team teach with her, since I can meet lots of the kids’ language goals this way, too. Maybe this will be the year we do it. The article will be really handy to help “sell” her on the concept.
I did the same thing with birding. I didn’t want to sit inside the building during migration, so I figured out the parameters birding activities would address that were my job. The kids loved it! I’ve planted a cache kind of in honor of those kids, too.
