Science For All

A simple worksheet I use in class for reviewing sound and light waves. Simple vocabulary and wave anatomy is presented. Worksheet is suitable for elementary or high school although it would probably be overly simplistic for a high school physics course except as a pre-test. Satisfies CA Physics Standards 4a, 4b,and 4d. Created by Rob Whitbey. Keywords: Wave, Sound, Light, Wavelegth, crest, trough, longitudinal, tranverse.

The Next Generation Science Standards are coming soon and you need to be ready. There is a Standard for nearly every science discipline that requires students to read and understand an article from a science journal. For several years now I have been using this set of worksheets with my lower level and upper level high school science courses in order to help them understand how to read a journal article. I have attached both forms in one Word file. I have also attached a fake science experiment

A great activity for those not sure how to use textbooks. I have created a textbook scavenger hunt worksheet so my students can get used to using the larger high school science textbooks. Helps them find and use the index, glossary and Table of contents. Helps them identify extra sections added to the book. I have created specific ones for Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science and Physics as well as a more generic version and attached them all. They can all be tweaked to fit your particular needs.

This worksheet is meant to help students understand the difference between ionic, metallic and covalent bonds by showing a molecule containing two elements. Students then have to determine of the three types of bonds would most likely exist between them. There is no equation balancing involved and bonds may not exist in this form in nature. This is a simple drill-oriented worksheet to ensure students understand the concepts of bonds. I use the worksheet with my Integrated Science students who d

This is a bundle of all my Chemistry worksheets. They are short, simple and meant to reinforce various concepts we cover in our short Chemistry unit in Integrated Science. Full-year Chemistry courses may want to change the worksheets to suit your level. No problem! These worksheets are 100% editable. For more information on each worksheet, they can be found at the following links: How Many Valence Electrons? Creating Bohr Models Creating Lewis Dot Diagrams Electron Configuration Review Cation o

I use this worksheet during my chemistry unit in Integrated Science. It is not meant to be a deep study of ions or isotopes per se, but just a way of showing students that atoms should have a certain number of electrons, protons and neutrons. If not, they are not neutral in charge. This and all my other Chemistry worksheets are available in one bundle at: Chemistry Worksheet Bundle Created by Rob Whitbey.

This presentation covers Meiosis, Crossing Over, Independent Assortment and Ploidy. It contains descriptions, images and animation. I created this for my high school Biology courses. It covers CA Biology/Life Science Standards 2a, 2b, 2c and 2e. Also cover Next Generation Science Standard: HS-LS3-2. Make and defend a claim based on evidence that inheritable genetic variations may result from: (1) new genetic combinations through meiosis, (2) viable errors occurring during replication, and/or

This is my introduction to Chemistry for non-chemistry courses. It covers atomic structure, how to read the Periodic Table (including trends), Bohr models, Lewis structures and types of bonds. There are lots of animations. I usually spend about three weeks teaching this information to my high school freshmen. The beauty is the simplicity which makes this product great for middle school or high school. Since it is editable you can customize it to your specific needs. Created by Rob Whitbey. T

This worksheet deals with creating Lewis Dot diagrams for the first 20 atoms. It includes an answer key. I currently use this worksheet in my Integrated Science course when teaching the chemistry unit. It works very well as a drill worksheet. Satisfies CA Chemistry Standard 1d. Students know how to use the periodic table to determine the number of electrons available for bonding. Satisfies CA Chemistry Standard 2e. Students know how to draw Lewis dot structures.

This presentation covers food webs and the food pyramid. The food web information contains a graphic shoing how energy moves from one organism to another and ultimately to the decomposers. The food pyramid information covers the "rule of ten." Created by Rob Whitbey. Keywords: food chain, food web, food pyramid, ecology. Covers CA Biology Standard 6f: "Students know at each link in a food web some energy is stored in newly made structures but much energy is dissipated into the environment as he

This is a simple worksheet where you are given the Chemical symbols and must fill in the number of valence electrons. It is very simple and doesn't include the Transition Metals, so it is not complicated. I created this for my Integrated Science Chemistry unit, which covers the bare minimum of Introductory Chemistry. Covers CA State Chemistry Standard 1d.
