High School students will learn more about vitamins & minerals in the body and why they are essential. They will also analyze the effects of the different types of vitamins & minerals and the purpose of varying types.

This work is organized around vocabulary for 5 themes: Psychology, Wellness, Technology, Careers, and Oregon. Each theme has 2 units for a total of 10 units. Each unit contains 24 - 28 target vocabulary words. Other words that may be unfamiliar to students are glossed.

We use this material as our textbook for an intermediate vocabulary class for adult English language learners at our community college. This class meets for 2 hours per week, and we typically use 5 units per 10-week term.

Each unit contains multiple readings. If you are not teaching a vocabulary class, the readings and vocabulary work may be useful supplements in other classes.

Learners use graphs of GPS position data to determine how the shape of Westdahl Volcano, Alaska is changing. If the flanks of a volcano swell or recede, it is a potential indication of magma movement and changing pressures below ground. GPS can measure changes as little as a couple millimeters per year. Learners are asked to decide if the measured motions are enough to issue a warning of immediate danger.

It’s fake! It’s amazing! It isn’t real! That’s right: you choose the topic; you create the quotations and the sources. You make up the names of the authors and the names of their books. The content of this paper is a creative writing assignment.

What isn’t creative is the form you use. The paper will get you ready for the form and process of your first research paper by allowing you to practice and/or review APA format and structure. You’ll practice formatting the paper following APA guidelines, using parenthetical citations, providing an alphabetized reference page, and integrating quotes correctly.
