Borh Models, Lewis Dot Structures
Students review and establish background information about atomic structure before drawing Bohr Models and their corresponding Lewis Dot Structures in attempts to establish a predictable pattern about groups/columns on the periodic tables and the number of valence electrons an element has. This could be accomplished as independent work, small group work or guided instruction.

Online Simulation of Natural Selection = Evodots!
This is a great computer model of what factors affect natural selection. Students are "predators" and eat dots on the screen. They collect data on how the population changes over time and how variation, population size, and heritability of a trait affect how the population changes over time. The guide I've created here leads students through the simulation and provides embedded as well as summative questions to check for understanding.

What Does a Crayfish Eat? Scientific Investigation
This is an investigation I created to complement the third grade FOSS science unit involving classroom crayfish. I wanted my students to understand the various steps of the scientific method and get hands-on experience with it. This investigation guides the students through the steps, asks them to define each step ("A hypothesis is _______."), and uses sentence frames to support all learners as they try to figure out the foods that crayfish eat. The Results section allows for 6 different foods t

PreAP Chemistry Density & Error FRQ
This is a free response question written in format like AP does. This question revolves around density and basic data analysis skills students might learn at the beginning of a PreAP Chemistry course. Each successive part of an FRQ (a-f here) potentially builds on itself and emphasizes a deeper understanding of the topic.
