Timber and Rail Lessons

As part of our study of the timber and rail course, we have come up with lessons to use in our classroom.  There are so many aspects of science that I can use the information learned this summer but I have come up with three activities that I believe will correlate well with my curriculum.  From having the students to search for items in their house that are products of the timber/wood or wood by-products industry, to finding how Newton's laws  explain how a locomotive can carry a load up and down a hill.  I hope that the lessons we share on our main blog page will help you to find something useful in your classroom!
