Experimental Design Practice: Add A Control Group
This practice sheet has 4 sample experiment descriptions. For each description, students add a control group. This could be used as a sub plan, and assessment, or a differentiation activity for students who understand other components of experimental design but struggle with the concept of a control group.

Experimental Design Practice: 4 Experiment Analysis
In this assignment, students mark the text to identify experimental design elements such as independent variable and control group. Then, students analyze the experiments by answering some critical thinking questions. Next, they pick an experiment and create a sample data chart for the experiment. If students have received instruction on experimental design, this activity could be used as a checkpoint assessment or a sub plan.

Experimental Design Sample: Analysis + Improvement
In this activity, students analyze an experiment. They identify experimental features such as independent variable and control group. Then, they analyze the experiment by answering deeper questions. Finally, they sketch the procedure with an improvement of their choice. If students have received instruction on experimental design, this activity could be used as a checkpoint assessment or a sub plan.

Experimental Design Practice: Independent & Dependent Variable Practice
This practice sheet has 6 sample experiment descriptions. For each description, students identify the independent and dependent variables. This could be used as a sub plan, and assessment, or a differentiation activity for students who understand other components of experimental design but struggle with identifying variables.

Experience
I have been teaching for 15 years. I have taught Earth Science, Forensics, Anatomy, Biology, and Neurophysiology. I have experience teaching 6th grade and 10th-12th grade. I currently teach Science and Student Leadership at an alternative high school. I also serve as an in-house instructional coach.
Teaching style
My teaching style is all about inquiry, real-world connections, and students doing real thinking about content. I do not put a lot of energy into low-level activities where students simply memorize surface-level knowledge. I want students to think deeply about content and how it is relevant to them. As much as possible, I like to have students experience or model phenomena. Additionally, I am trauma-informed in my approach to building a classroom environment and choosing instructional techniques.
