This document includes examples and problems that will help students understand Scratch as well as develop critical thinking skills.

Unit test for 7th graders, I created this as a summative assessment for the Mosa Mack "Atoms and Molecules" unit. All questions are a DOK of 2 or aboveAnswer key included!

This file has project instructions, a rubric, a checklist for students to follow, and project examples with grades (ranging from F to A+). Learning Target: we will develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures STEELS 3.2.6-8.A Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures. NGSS MS-PS1-1.Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures.

In order to fully understand the motion blocks in Scratch, students must be able to use a graph. This document is a short exercise where students will locate objects on a graph. This graph worksheet focuses on the positive coordinates.

This project can be used with station rotation or as whole group instruction. For station rotation, start with direct instruction before splitting the students into collaborative and independent stations. In the direct instruction, go over key safety such as not touching the dry ice. Students in the collaborative station will freeze fruits and candy in the dry ice (supervised by the teacher). Students in the independent station will design a container in a dry ice challenge. For whole group i

This lesson heavily encourages students to work collaboratively to discover why Eclipses, Seasons, and Moon Phases occur. This lesson plan includes links to templates for student presentations, slides for the lesson, and a link to a Sandbox choice board with independent activities. This lesson follows the station rotation model but tweaked for online delivery. This could easily be reformatted for in-person learning.

This exercise will teach students that they need to be very precise in programming with Scratch. They must get the fox from its starting point to the house without touching any obstacles.

This document includes 10-15 discussion questions (a total of 100 questions) for each of this year's high school Battle of the Books books. The books are I Am J by Cris Beam, Little Brother by Cory Doctorow, Every Day by David Levithan, Somebody, Please Tell Me Who I Am by Harry Mazer, Out of Nowhere by Maria Padian, Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell, Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein and Beneath a Meth Moon by Jacqueline Woodson.

This Groundhog Day lesson was written in 2020, prior to the pandemic. However, many of the items in the craft can be found at home and are easily translatable to zoom classes.

These are the slides I used with my Sun-Earth-Moon System lesson plan. This should be compatible with Nearpod. This lesson was designed to be taught online but could easily be adapted.
