Photos: Hofwyl-Broadfield PlantationDarien, GeorgiaDon't forget to go further and look into how the National Park Service has linked this resource with others by examining the Golden Crescent running through Georgia and Florida. Go to that link here: http://www.cr.nps.gov/goldcres/ In addition to the Golden Crescent, we have tied this information into the other unit developed by the National Park Service called, "When Rice Was King." Go to: http://www.cr.nps.gov/nr/twhp/wwwlps/lessons/3rice/3rice.htm No matter what subject you teach, do not miss out on the well-crafted lessons plans from the National Park Service that will allow you to weave topics across the curricula into exciting learning for students. Go to: http://www.cr.nps.gov/nr/twhp/descrip.htm We'd like to thank the Georgia Department of Natural Resources for allowing us to take these photos and share them with fellow educators. Please keep in mind that these photos are only a tiny segment of resources that await you and your students when you take advantage of the historic sites all around you. There is no subject that in someway cannot make use of these experiences. We hope that you will provide your students with the opportunity to capture their own sense of discovery by putting the tools in their hands to represent their experiences and understandings of the importance of these places in terms of informing us of the past and guiding us in the future. Clicking on the thumbnail of the photo will take you to the larger image. Most are around 640x480 and average around 60 to 80 kb each for file size. Photos were taken in late September, 2002.
