Holiday Resources from PBS

Here is a cross post for holiday resources from PBS Learning Media.

Students use data and infographics to explore the changes in costs of ingredients for a typical Thanksgiving meal from one year to the next.
·         Thanksgivukkah | For grades 6-12
According to many in the Jewish community, Hanukkah and Thanksgiving have much more in common this year than just a calendar date.
·         Thanksgiving l For grades 3-12
This set of primary resources provides a window into the history of Thanksgiving, as well as a Teacher's Guide with historical context and teaching suggestions.
There are also more videos, lesson plans and activities tied to the upcoming holiday season. If you’re working on any holidays articles, please let me know and we can send you more info on these (and many more!) from PBS LearningMedia:

Happy Holidays

I just wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy holidays.  Also, I wanted to say a big thank you to all my dedicated readers, advertisers, family, PLN (online family), Technology and Learning, other bloggers, and friends.  Without you all Technology Tidbits wouldn't even possible and lets me continue to do what a I love.  It's been a rough 1 1/2 yrs since my position in my last district was cut, but the passion, joy, and love of technology and education has continued to flourish w/ this blog.  Technology Tidbits has come a long way and while I do this strictly for the joy, it has turned into a little venture that now helps pay the bills through the support of all of you.



I wish you all a healthy and happy new year and look forward to 2012!!!
