Simple Machines, Fixed/Movable Pulleys, Work, Mechanical Advantage (Word & PDF)
This a a basic activity to demonstrate the mechanical advantage of pulleys. Students can see that a fixed pulley helps only by allowing you to pull down with gravity in order to lift an object up. Movable pulleys double the amount of line pulled and decrease the effort required to lift an object. Both pulleys add friction, thereby increasing the overall amount of work done.
See the list of supplies. You may be able to make substitutions for some objects, but you will need several pulleys, strin

6,7! Gen Z Phrases vs Your Pulse: A Scientific Investigation
Do your students seem like they are speaking their own Gen Z or Gen Alpha language? Does it drive you bananas? Well don't beat them, join them! In this scientific investigation, students test the relationship between repeating certain phrases (6,7 or other equally obnoxious , I mean fun sayings) and their pulse. Does the pulse increase or decrease the more times someone repeats phrases? Does your teachers' pulse change? A fun way to let them use their favorite sayings and still learn about

Steps of the Scientific Method Quiz
The scientific method is a key set of procedures students must know at the elementary level. This quiz allows teachers to assess student knowledge of the steps. Used as both a pre- and post-test, students are asked to list the steps in order and provide their own explanation of the step. This allows teachers to see if students actually understand the concept of each step in the process rather than relying on memorization skills.
