Thank you. I use them every week it seems, when we start at new chapter or unit. They help the students have a purpose to their reading and to know which key words or concepts to focus on for the quizzes.

Thank you for the feedback, I have taken your advice and made up an alternate layout with the words at the top.

I appreciate the suggestion and will consider working that up and adding it. With middleschoolers though, they rarely needing much leading in that area I found, and this was a cumulative type project after we had studied some of these type traits and they have pictures in the textbook and other resources to reference if they needed reminders.

Thank you for the feedback! I basically have made a mix of worksheets for every science chapter in my textbooks to use as study guides, fun puzzles to build teamwork and for quiz review. Hopefully you can find other topics that help you in your classroom too. Have a great day! Maura

Thank you for commenting. I am a mac user at home, so PDF is the easiest format to ensure both mac and windows users can download the worksheets I make. I may offer some products in future in Word format, or power point though. I try instead to offer the same vocab definitions in 4 formats for teachers, the vocab review, plus a crossword, wordsearch and matching pair set. Look for them on each topic maybe they can help you too.
