Description
SAVE OVER 40% and get a FREE BONUS! This bundle has varied and engaging resources to teach CONVECTION from many different REAL-WORLD angles!
Convection is a topic that spans many subjects - from thermal energy to weather to plate tectonics. The resources in this bundle highlight the connections between these topics.
Students will learn that convection works the same in every situation, whether it is in weather fronts, movement of magma in the mantle, in liquids such as in ocean currents, or in gases like in a hot air balloon.
This Bundle Includes the Following Lessons:
- "Density Creates Currents" Article and Questions*: Students read an article about how density creates currents in various situations, such as ocean currents, weather, plate tectonics, and currents in heating homes. Then, students answer text-dependent follow-up questions.
- Convection Worksheet*: This straightforward convection currents worksheet has two diagrams to analyze. Students will answer questions about convection currents in liquids and gases based on the diagrams.
- Modeling Convection Hands-On Activity: This convection activity can be used as a teacher demo or a hands-on student activity. It effectively demonstrates a convection current using very easy supplies.
- Convection in the Mantle Coloring Page: This is not your average coloring sheet! Students will color a diagram of convection in the mantle based on instructions in the document, but then also answer analysis questions about what the diagram is showing. It's much more rigorous than a coloring sheet.
- Hot Air Balloon Text & Questions (FREE BONUS)*: Students read a brief text about how convection works in a hot air balloon and then answer text-dependent questions. Great as homework!
*Skip the line at the copier! The starred resources include both print and digital Google Slides options to assign.
Teacher Notes:
- Includes all answer keys
- Please note that these resources are not editable.
