This institute prepares teachers to help students measure and describe the things around us; explain what the world around us is made of; identify and describe forms of energy; investigate, describe and analyze ways in which matter changes; describe how living things and human technology change matter and transform energy; explain how visible changes in matter are related to changes in energy; describe how things around us move and explain why things move as they do; demonstrate and explain how we control the motions of objects; relate motion to energy and energy conversions; describe sounds and sound waves; explain shadows, color, and other light phenomena; measure and describe vibrations and waves; explain how waves and vibrations transfer energy; investigate the atmosphere and weather; and explore the solar system, galaxy and universe.</div> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <TABLE BORDER="2" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="644" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 ><NOBR><div> <A HREF="id58.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Physical Science Syllabus"><U><I><B>Syllabus</B></I></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <A HREF="lesson_plans_prepared_by_esmis_participants_.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Lesson Plans"><U><I><B>Lesson Plans</B></I></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <A HREF="http://www.gatherround.com/j/AlbumIndex?u=125282&a=130008&pw=ps" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.gatherround.com/j/AlbumIndex?"><U><I><B>Pictures</B></I></U></A><I><B>*</B></I></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <I><B>Teacher Comments</B></I></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <A HREF="id53.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Links"><U><I><B>Links</B></I></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <A HREF="id81.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Teacher Chat"><U><I><B>Teacher Chat</B></I></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <div> *This link will take you to a different website</div> </td> </tr></table></body>
