15 Traditional Grade 6 World Cultures Curriculum Lesson 15 To introduce students to the concept of culture, conduct a class discussion on people and culture. Ask :  How many people do you think there are in the world? (Inform students of the current population obtained from www.census.gov (July 2008). www.census.gov  How many students believe that everyone on the planet lives the same way? Differentiate the process by displaying the InspireData database titled “Population Growth.”

17 Traditional Grade 4 Science Curriculum Lesson 17 Students will create a model of the moon, sun, and Earth in order to identify the phases of the moon.  Activity: Students use information gained from the reading to label the eight moon phases in the chart on page 31. For students requiring additional support, provide pictures of the phases of the moon and vocabulary word cards. Have students cut and paste, in lieu of labeling, to create a visual representation of the phases of the moon.

18 18 Consider… UDL Guidelines: Principle II Provide Multiple Means for Action and Expression Checkpoint 4.2: Provide varied ways to interact with materials
