From Stone Wall Initiative
Comment on this resource
This curriculum includes lessons and activities which are grounded in the children's book 'Stone Wall Secrets' as well as in New England's abundance of stone walls. Many students are familiar with stone walls in their neighborhoods and are afforded instances in which they may delve into essential questions regarding the walls, the stones they are made from, and the history associated with their construction. The curriculum includes a set of lessons with national content standard alignments for each one, accompanied by worksheets, a teacher's kit, a teacher's reference, links to related texts, and some sample student work.
