Description

Relevant, engaging step-by-step guided research, reading, writing, and presenting about what vitamins and minerals are, why we need them, and where we get them. Students read interesting informational text from credible sources, plus evaluate why they're credible, gather relevant information, research to build and present knowledge (perfect for W.6.7, W.6.8, WHST.6-8.7 & 8), create an awesome visual display (template provided), and even write too!

Comes with teacher guide, student handouts, a template to make paper pyramid, links to URL's for assigning specific nutrients to each student, and an answer key.

No-prep printables ready to go! Or NOW AVAILABLE IN INTERACTIVE GOOGLE SLIDES FOR EASY DISTANCE LEARNING.

Perfect for reading, writing, and presenting informational text. Your students are going to learn so much and they are going to love it! Relevant to real life also! This can easily be used in ELA or in Science. The pyramids are great to display around the room because kids can pick them up and look at them (& learn something).

Also, check out my blog post "10 Great Ways for Students to Research and Present Information" so that you can eliminate those boring presentations and worn-out research methods.

Fun Activity!
Rated 4 out of 5

This was a fun activity for my class. The students each were assigned a vitamin/mineral and went to work. Instructions were clear. Students gave a brief presentation afterwards using their pyramid.

My students enjoyed the research and creating their vitamin pyramid. Displaying their finished projects was a pivotal part for their retention of the information, especially reading what everyone else had researched.
