Bring mutations and protein synthesis to life with this engaging, evidence-based activity! In this resource, students analyze four real-world mutation scenarios and use a codon chart to determine how changes in DNA impact the final protein. Students translate codons, identify the type of mutation, and evaluate how the mutation affects the resulting amino acid sequence. After analyzing each case, students construct a Claim–Evidence–Reasoning (CER) response using data from the scenario to justi

Do your students need support answering multi-select questions? Here is a streamlined process to support students. You will get the poster in 3 different color schemes as well as a student handout they can use to guide the process.

Students will work to analyze 8 different motion graphs as they try to match each graph with a scenario. Each graph has a set of discussion questions students will use as they make sense of each graph. There are 2 versions of each scenario to accommodate struggling learners and more advanced learners and each version has a teacher's copy which includes all answers. Use this amazing resource to create opportunities for critical thinking as students learn to analyze motion graphs.

This Infographic is a one stop shop for 5E instructions. This colorfully illustrated poster will walk your students through how learning takes place using the 5Es (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate) of science instruction.

This poster Set describes each phase of the 5E Model of instruction in a colorfully illustrated format. Each E (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate) is on its own page for a 5 poster set ready to be used for your classroom walls or bulletin board. These posters are available in 3 colors to better match your classroom design.

Use this classroom poster set to design bulletin boards or as an anchor chart to guide students through the engineering and design process. This colorful poster set provides guiding questions/statements to assist students and teachers as you design and create to solve real world problems. A great way to use this resource would be to cut the chart into individual cards and have students try to create the correct order of the process and/or match the explanation with the step.

This easy to use Infographic provides images and easy to understand definitions of each science and engineering practice to support all learning styles. This classroom resource comes in a variety of color schemes, so choose your favorite to match the style of your own classroom.

This 8 poster set is perfect for creating an educationally rich environment for students from Kindergarten through high school. Each poster displays the science and engineering practice, an image of the practice in use, and a short explanation of the practice. Posters are ready to print and laminate for extended use.

Students will gain a deep understanding of what happens to molecules when thermal energy is added or removed while organizing these cards into a variety of arrangements. Instructions are provided in written and video format to offer ideas for how to utilize the cards with students. These cards are ready to print and use with students in a variety of interactive activities.

In this interactive activity students will use a set of cards to create a concept map as a review of the different types of matter. Cards include terms, examples in word and formula format, examples in molecular model format, and examples using everyday objects. Students will organize each card into a concept map and then use the concept map to define each type of matter using provided sentence stems. The presentation provides video instructions for the teacher, ready to print cards for students

Engage students in a vocabulary scavenger hunt using these sets of 15 cards. Students will work to select the correct term based on the clue provided on the cards. There are 3 unique sets each with different backgrounds for easy organization. These scavenger hunts are great for group work, test review, or an extension activity when students finish their assignment early. Also included is a student handout where they can record their answers as they work as well as a teacher answer key.

Are you looking for assessment resources for your Environmental Science class? Look no further. This resource comes with dozens of assessment opportunities for your students. Cycling of matter and flow of energy in an ecosystem is broken down into 5 subtopics including organization, energy pyramids, biogeochemical cycles, and biomes. Students are challenged with drag and drop, multiple choice, multiple select, in-line drop down, and writing activities as they develop models, utilize data, and p

Introduce students to the most used equipment in any science class. Each piece of equipment has its own slide and is followed by an activity students can complete to use the equipment in real time. Student data is recorded on the included student handout.

Do you want your students engaged, collecting data, and creating presentations while at the same time meeting classmates and working collaboratively? This activity is for you. Students work to create and organize scientific encounters while working with several different partners.

Use these resources to accompany the presentation as you get your students thinking about science. As students switch from one partner to another they use the student handout to compile a list of the practices used by scientists. Data is collected as a class using the digital collection document. Students are then tasked with creating a visual to represent the practices. This activity requires students to work in different pairs for short time segments allowing students to get to know their clas
