Punnett Square Practice Flowers
**Distance Learning and Remote Learning Appropriate In this flower genetics practice, students use a traits chart to determine genotypes and phenotypes, and perform genetic crosses using punnett squares. The practice is scaffholded - students begin with determining basic alleles, genotypes and phenotypes and labeling these as homozygous and heterozygous. Students move on to cross genes by setting up punnett squares in order to determine probabilities of genotypes and phenotypes appearing in off

Punnett Square Practice 2
**Distance Learning and Remote Learning Appropriate In this genetics punnett square practice, students use a traits chart to determine genotypes and phenotypes, and perform genetic crosses using punnett squares. Students cross genes by setting up punnett squares in order to determine probabilities of genotypes and phenotypes appearing in offspring. On the third page, the process is reversed - teachers should write the crosses of the offspring, and students will determine the original genotypes

Punnett Square Practice
**Distance Learning and Remote Learning Appropriate In this punnett practice, students use a traits chart to determine genotypes and phenotypes, and perform genetic crosses using punnett squares. The practice regards the crossing of genes in flowers first and then with genetic disorders. Students move on to cross genes by setting up punnett squares in order to determine probabilities of genotypes and phenotypes appearing in offspring. The practice is engaging and aligned to 7th-grade science ess

Energy Transformation Practice: Reviews Types of Energy and Energy Transfers!
I've done this activity from 7th through 12th grades and it's always entertaining to see what they come up with. Since they're not actually building it, they can really think out of the box (ex- nuclear energy and thermal energy become popular). I usually do this after a lesson on energy and then I will show then the OK Go, "This Too Shall Pass" video as that is the ultimate contraption to model (in my opinion). You may also wish to show them Rube Goldberg examples. Or, modify a bit and simply u

Scientific Method Lab- Sink or Float? (Tap and Salt Water)
In this activity, the students will follow the steps of the scientific method to discover if objects are more likely to float in salt water or tap water. It will show them how scientists record data on charts and draw conclusions. It is able to be edited, so you can change the materials to be ones that you have or wish to use.

Science in a Shoebox: Motion and Gravity
Science in a Shoebox is an activity where the teacher sends home a box with a science experiment in it to one student at a time for them to complete with a parent/guardian. This provides opportunities for parents to become involved in their child's learning and actively participate in a science experiment.
In this activity, students and parents will learn about Newton's laws of motion and gravity. The activity includes instruction sheet, student recording sheet, parent recording sheet, and a

Genes/Traits versus Alleles
This activity is a great way to introduce or reinforce genes and alleles. It helps students better understand what genes and alleles are and how they are different and similar. Students will be given cards that they must match up with other gene and allele cards. An extension activity is included! This can be 1-3 days, depending on how far you want to go with it. The hands-on format helps students make sense of genes and alleles in an easy and fun manner. Students will become masters of genes b

Scientific Text: Origins of Measurements; Non-Fiction Reading Practice
Provide students with an engaging non-fiction text about the origins of some measurements. This text is a perfect introduction to units of measurements and for students to understand the reasoning behind standardized systems of measurement. Students are asked to organize written information into a data table which allows them to engage with the information AND work on comprehension skills without asking them to write out full sentences.

Graph Interpretation Practice
I created this worksheet as a review for students entering my science classes after a long summer of taking selfies. It also helps me assess their incoming knowledge and determine if they need more practice. Students are asked to analyze and interpret data for 7 graphs (line, bar and pie). I have uploaded this in a .docx format so you can modify and differentiate the questions to meet your students' and classroom needs. ANSWER KEY IS INCLUDED. Enjoy!

Students will get in a festive mood, while they practice matching DNA bases with each other. This lesson comes with instructions. However, it's easy to use, easy to prep for, and the students enjoy working on it! Students create their own patterns using the bases of DNA and the shapes of the cut-outs help emphasize which bases go together and which do not. It makes a great visual and hands-on activity!
