Worksheet to accompany the video shown during the Earthquakes unit in my 8th Grade Earth Science course.

Worksheet to accompany video. Questions about volcanism, volcanoes, and the 1980 Mt. St Helens Eruption

Excellent introduction to projectile motion in Physics.

Worksheet to accompany How the Earth Was Made America's Gold video. Used in 8th grade Minerals unit

Worksheet to accompany How the Earth Was Made Iceland video. Describes volcanic activity, plate tectonics, sea-floor spreading and other topics along divergent boundary in Iceland.

Earth Science worksheet with questions to accompany the How The Earth Was Made episode about Tsunamis.

Worksheet to Accompany the video.

Worksheet to accompany Bill Nye the Science Guy Energy Video. (I do not post answers to any of my materials, as some of my HS students have somehow gained access)

Worksheet to accomplany How the Earth Was Made Krakatoa. Discusses volcanism, eruption, tsunamis.

Worksheet to accompany NOVA's "Newton's Dark Secrets" video. (I do not post answer keys to my materials as students have become very adept at finding them online...)

Simple Lab experiment examining heat released or absorbed in several safe, everyday reactions.

I use 20-sided dice, but you can adapt to do any size. Kids roll dice and use the results to form and name ionic compounds. Students typically enjoy and prefer this to traditional worksheet practice.

Excellent myth regarding conservation of momentum and Newton's Third Law.

Fun nomenclature worksheet for familiarization with the Periodic Table. Answers to questions are the names of the elements as puns. IE "A container in which automobiles are stored: "Carbon" Kids enjoy it, and don't realize they are becoming more familiar with the layout of the PT. (Adapted with permission from my predecessor's activity) I removed my answer keys, as some of my students have obtained access.

A worksheet for practice in basic binary nomenclature. Students have to identify covalent or ionic and then name or give formula. I don't post my answer keys, as students have become adept cheaters and have obtained them off of TPT in the past...

Powerpoint Jeopardy as a review for the Plate Tectonics Test. Uses a Jeopardy Template given to our staff years ago-(I'm not sure where to give credit for the template)

A matching worksheet activity for binomial nomenclature. Great early activity for naming. I don't post my answer keys as students have become adept cheaters and they have been found on TPT several times.

Small Minerals Test-given after Minerals unit and prior to Rocks Unit.

Simple worksheet with binomial nomenclature practice. Using a matching activity is a nice step before having students come up with the names on their own.
