Content organization

Content organization

  • Each scenario begins with an introductory section that summarizes the contents and presents the general objectives.
  • Each scenario is divided into several modules, each of which is comprised of two or more activities.
  • Each module begins with an explanation of the sequence of activities.
  • An educational progression is suggested from one module to another and, within a module, from each activity to the next. However, a module or an activity can be used independently, with a few minor adaptations.
  • A sidebar provides the module's general objectives, classroom organization and material requirements.

The teacher's worksheets are :

  • The ACTIVITY worksheet describes the progress of an activity.
  • The VISUAL AID worksheet provides visual support to explanations during the activity.
  • The CONCEPTS worksheet provides essential information on the theme of the activity and is an extension toward the Trees Inside Out virtual exhibit.
  • The ANSWER KEY worksheet provides the correct answers for students' worksheets.

The students' worksheets are:

  • The EXPERIMENT worksheet is the written support for the students.
  • THE TOOL worksheet is a common worksheet to both the teacher and the students and is useful to complete the activity (e.g. an identification key).

Warning:
The use of the masculine in the second person singular is not discriminatory.
