Teen Presentation
Preceptor: Cindy
his class, many are from broken or low socioeconomic homes and that has to be taken into
consideration while teaching them. He also talked about the upcoming holidays and how this
has an effect on students behavior considering their fragile circumstances. It is easy to tell
that he is a great teacher and is very warm towards his students, often placing his hand on
their shoulder and listening intently to them as they speak. You can tell that his disposition
greatly impacts his class and that his students have a great deal of respect for him, his
classroom and all who enter.
global warming is front page news, the audience wants to know how they
can support the earth. More understanding needs to be tied between the
Earths health status and its impacts on its inhabitants: Humans! After
recapping the water cycle and soil, this unit will focus on how these two
factors affect us as consumers this will be done by explaining the food chain
and human nutrition. With a solid understanding of the food chain and our
place as humans in it, we will segway into unit two which goes more in-depth
into our own agricultural food supply (crops and livestock), farming practices
and how current practices are detrimental to the Earth touching on
greenhouse gases, global warming and climate change. In doing this we will
successfully wrap up this Earth science unit have linked the important
symbiotic relationship of all of these factors and the importance of protecting
the Earth.
d) Evaluate health literacy - and other cultural issues: This group likely has an
average health literacy for their ages. Most health literacy information is created at
a 7th grade reading level making it obtainable for all students. Problems regarding
health literacy may include reading and developmental abilities of cognitive
reasoning.

C. RESEARCH AND PLANNING (how, who, and when the process of your
work):
1. Meeting Dates
7 day meeting - Tuesday December 6, 2016 @1pm and again December 9, 2016
2. Based on the results of the needs assessment, what did you do to prepare?
To prepare we talked with Cindy to form an outline of topics which needed to be
covered and/or reviewed with the group. We went through the past four units
presented by other interns to figure out topics covered and started formulating our
content.
3. How did you go about the development process? Who was involved?
After pinpointing what information we needed to have covered in our presentation
both Jaclyn and I organized our content in what we believed to be a logical order.
From the content we chose the important points to be covered and created our
objectives.
We began with researching the producers which includes soil, water and the sun.
We learned that they are part of a larger cycle called the food chain which include
the consumers who get nourishment from the producers. We further researched
how the producer and the consumers are tied together and interdependent on one
another.
After our 7 day with Cindy we found that our interpretation of the needs assessment
was not on point so we reworked our presentation to focus on a wrap up of the soil
and water units and tie them together utilizing a story of the geological history and
formation of the Connecticut River Valley which we live in.
We then chose activities that would be appropriate to reinforce our topic and an
evaluation to test understanding of the information provided. The activity was one
created to support what we have learned about erosion and the importance of
plants in preventing soil erosion over time.
4. What resources did you use? Why did you choose them and how did you find
them? Relate back to your assessment section.

1. Outline of presentation:
Describe all components of the program or material, and the team member
responsible for them. Include descriptions of the content, learning activities, food
activities, visuals, education materials and evaluation methods/materials. (May
attach as separate document.)
5. What would you do differently/the same the next time - or what would you
change if you had more time? How effective do you feel your program/material was
for the target audience?
If we had an opportunity to redo the materials for this presentation and concepts to
be taught I think I would focus on creating a stronger learning activities and making
them more of a highlight in the presentation. The activity we had was good but I
feel like it could have been better, perhaps letting the kids built their own erosion
control bins or something of that nature rather than just having them pour water
into previously created projects. They were effective for what we were trying to
teach, however with a little more time and funding I think we could have done
something a bit more targeted.
Also, if we had another opportunity to do this same presentation again I would keep
the information about the formation of the CT River Valley but expand on it more to
talk about its impact on early indigenous life and settlers as compared to life today
as a means to segway into our second presentation.

Reminder to be respectful and participate while we are here.
Ice Breaker:(reviewing of water and soil):
1. Why is water vital for life?
Content:
Plant Cycle:
Overview: We need these 3 for the plant cycle
Water
Soil
sun
Water:
Rock erosion
Moving glaciers (you can see evidence of that
with the big boulders that are all over our woods in NH and VT
(including the woods at KH)
Also volcanoes and earthquakes
he elements: wind (carries sand particles that
wear down the rock it hits), rain, and humans climbing on rocks
Soil erosion
Trees and Plants help prevent erosion because roots anchor soil
Plants
Plants anchor soil
Run off with minerals brought to soil
Minerals in soil feed the plants
Glaciers, streams, and floods
What percents of the earth is water? 71%
What percent of the water is usable: only 1% of the water on the earth is potable. 96%
is in ocean to produce energy, 96% is in ocean, 3% glaciers
The story of the Connecticut River Valley: Geological history
Glaciers
Erosion
Streams
Floods
Runoff
Soil:
Minerals
compost green and brown. These come
from plants and animals)
Come from microbes
Come from gases through exchange
Consumers & decomposers breath in Oxygen
when they inhale and exhale carbon dioxide
Producers work in the opposite they breath in
Carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen for the
consumers to breath
Sun:
Keep cycle going
Light and heat
Causes evaporation to happen in order for the water cycle to continue
Photosynthesis
green plants use sunlight and water and make a type of sugar called glucose.
Chlorophyll- green pigments found in plants and algae
Food System:
We talked about plant cycle and plants are producers
Producers get nutrients from the soil, water, etc
Call to Action:
For next week think about how waste products and garbage may
impact the food cycle.
