This is a power point with information about viruses, bacteria, protists, and fungi. It includes, information, pictures, and questions for periodic checks on student understanding. It gives a good overall view on Microbes. There is more information on Diseases associated with microbes in my "Spread and Prevention of Disease" power point.

Brief review of Metabolism, BMI, and how the body systems work together to help us get energy from our food. There are several flow maps to help illustrate the concepts. There are also 9 questions on the last 3 slides for students to answer based on the powerpoint.

This is a basic review Power Point on photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Has several illustrations and a comparison of Aerobic vs. Anaerobic respiration.

This is a power point that I use in 8th grade Science to teach about abiotic and biotic factors, as well as populations and communities. We have already touched on ecosystems at this point in the course, so you will see reference to that. I also would often have the students brainstorm all the things that they think are included in an ecosystem or community, before we start the power point. Then as we go through the slides they enjoy seeing all the factors they missed, and all the ones they were

This is a basic power point on Protists and Fungi. It includes information, examples, pictures, and questions to go along with the power point There is a chart that can be used to go along with it. It is linked within the power point but I also have a copy posted here on TpT for free (Protist/Fungi chart) if it won't open through the power point. This power point really helps the students to compare and see the differences between these less known microorganisms. Some of the information in t

This is a basic power point on viruses and bacteria. It has examples, pictures, information on it. Please see my Spread and Prevention of Diseases powerpoint for more info. on the Disease aspect of viruses and bacteria. The Bacteria and virus information is also included in my Microbiology Power Point along with other microbes if you are doing a Microbiology unit. I always include questions to spot check students understanding as we are reviewing the power point.

This power point is an overview of the types, spread, and prevention of diseases caused by viruses, bacteria, and protists. There aren't a lot of examples of diseases in it, but it does have the more common ones, as well as good details about each. It includes questions throughout to check student understanding. It also contains several pictures. It touches on the ways that we transmit diseases, prevention of disease, treatment, and contagious vs. non-contagious. It is a good overview to th

Basic Power Point on trophic levels. Briefly covers what each level is ex. producer, primary consumer, etc. Has several visuals of trophic pyramids. Also uses a visual to demonstrate the loss of energy at each level (left with 10% of previous level's energy). There is a slide that asks the student to come up with their own pyramid as well.

This is a Power point presentation on the formation of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks that I have used in my Earth Science class. It gives basic information as well as visuals. Very straightforward and simple for the students to follow.

Basic Power Point about Matter. Includes some vocabulary, a drawing of the Atom, States of Matter, and some of the scientists who influenced the discovery of the atom as we know it today.
