According to the State of Ohio Department of Education, the standard for Government is:

Students use knowledge of the purposes, structures and processes of political systems at the local, state, national and international levels to understand that people create systems of government as structures of power and authority to lprovide order, maintain stability and promote the general welfare.
Again, following the template in Mod 3, click on one of the links, Government K - 8, or Government 9 - 12, and then copy and paste the page into a Word document on your computer, and Save As:  government
Then, add your own links (one per benchmark at your grade band) and Save your document again.
After you have completed your Word document, called:    government,     print it out for your booklet if you desire.

In the subject line of an e-mail type "Mod 7 - Soc. - Your name" and type a short essay reflecting on all the links your viewed provided by instructor at your grade band.

Attach your document called:  government
to the e-mail and send to instructor at:
[email protected]
Optional. Healthier Testing Made Easy.  Click here for some perspective on testing.
Optional.  There is a most amazing book that you can purchase through Amazon, at your local bookstore or online, called USBorne Internet Linked Encyclopedia of World History. (The mod on history was a little overwhelming, so I saved this information for now.)  This book not only deals with history, but all aspects of Social Studies with hundreds of links to interactive museums, virtual tours, etc.
Their website is:   www.usborne-quicklinks.com
When there, click on the US flag
Then type in the word:   history
When asked for page numbers, these correlate to the book, I highly recommend looking over this book, but for a quick look at some of the links available here, try pages:
11    for a dozen links on Prehistory
106  for links on the Ancient World
200  for links to Medieval World
294  for links about the last 500 years
There are literally a hundred more pages linked to time periods, and on the pages of the book, if you see a little star next to a picture, that picture is also available online to download.

They also have an amazing book called:  USBorne Introduction to  Archaeology Internet Linked by Abigail Wheatley and Struan Reid, which has links to movies, 360 degree views of dig sites, and many more unbeleivable resources.
(I am not in any way affiliated with these books, I just love them.) Here is a some links from this book:
Go to www.usborne-quicklinks.com
click on U.S. flag
type in:  archaeology

My favorite page is:  110
The three links on this page each take you to a dozen more with panoramas of ancient Greece, the 7 ancient wonders of the world,  the British Museum, a tree ring timeline, underwater archaeology and much much more. The other hundred or so pages link to interactive histories of all continents (p. 54), ancient Olmec ball games (p.47), Mesa Verde (p. 49) and more.

There are also many more titles in the series, including Science, which are also worth checking out at the library or purchasing on the website. (My history book was $19.95.)
reminder for those wanting graduate credit - you will not be able to register for graduate credit after mod 8; this needed to be turned in immediately; please send ASAP forms and tuition to be registered with Ashland if you have not already done so, so your name can be put on a gradesheet and you will be given the password required to complete the last mods. thanks :)
