I LOVE it!!! Thank you all so much for all the hard work that went into making the trip so amazing! It was a tremendous learning experience and a ton of fun! I'm blessed to be in Cabell County! :-)
You need to upload a video of it actually singing! lol I've had the best laughs this past week. I miss hanging out with everyone, but I'm a little partial to van 3! Thanks for giving us this awesome experience! I'm looking forward to more.
Coal and coal mining in West Virginia has had perhaps the biggest impact on shaping the history and now the future of our state. Coal is found in 53 of its 55 counties with 43 of them having minable reserves. Even though coal has played such such an important role in developing WV and the future of our state depends on its use as an alternative fuel, few WV students know much about it. School teachers from Cabell County in West Virginia are embarking on a unique project this summer to develop the skills necessary to bring place-based curricula dealing with WV coal to their own classes. These teachers will be traveling throughout West Virginia utilizing GPS, scientific probeware, blogs, still/video cameras, and a host of software to develop a "Virtual Tour" to many of the mining sites, both past and present, that have helped shape our WV history. Click on the WV Teachers below beginning the week of July 17-22 this summer to see their travels around West Virginia, as they document deep coal mining, surface mining, stream run-off, and the history of coal mining.
