Project WET: Correlations to TN K-8 Curriculum Standards
Note to users:
For each of the four subjects (science, social studies, math and language
arts), the entire Blueprint entry for grades K-8 is reproduced. Related
WET activities are listed in the column on the right. These activities
are suggestions made and reviewed by the above committee of educators. A
special effort was made to recommend activities that will work exactly
as they appear in the 2006 WET Pre K–8 Guide. Feel free to
modify and adapt any of the 96 WET lessons to suit the needs of your
students and/or situation. Those of you who are familiar with WET
already know of other ways to modify lessons to help your students
with other concepts and ideas they need to understand.
