This activity has students practice with gel electrophoresis. It is modeled after the traditional activity that has students cut the paper DNA strand with scissors, only this is ALL virtual! One of the slides is set up to do as an example with the students - the teacher models it, and the students have 4 sets of DNA to do on their own! This does NOT explain what gel electrophoresis is, I would recommend doing a lesson with that the day before this activity. I have a free note sheet that goes thr

This slide show is set up as an interactive worksheet (perfect for the virtual classroom) and introduces the terms, ask kids questions (and there are spots to type their answers), teaches them about agglutination and blood typing tests, and how to interpret the blood type test results. There are sample problems to do as a class and some for the students to try on their own. There is also a free mini quiz available (with the same title) to check their understanding at the end of the lesson.

This assignment requires students to identify various minutiae of fingerprints in order to match them to another set of prints. There are 12 sets of prints to match.

As your students discover the amazing microscopic world, this worksheet will give them a place to record their findings. There is a line for the specimen/slide title as well as a spot for the magnification.

This slideshow introduces the concept of projectile motion with text boxes so the students can fill in their answers directly on the slideshow. There are 2 slides with video links and questions. Some informational slides to guide a mini lecture with some slides with questions to help build in discussion. There is one slide with a projectile with missing information that the students will have to figure out using projectile knowledge and the pythagorean theorem. This is perfect for a virtual clas

This slide show teaches students about the 4 types of blood, components of blood, reviews basic punnett square vocabulary, and includes sample punnett square problems (with answers that slide out so you can call on students and have them share their answer before the answer comes onto the screen. It also has the solutions to the punnett square problems that the students will have to complete on their own. The students note sheet and practice problems are free and are titled "Blood Type & Punne

This google slides, is a virtual activity for students. They can type in their answers, and drag and drop force vectors to demonstrate their knowledge of the concepts within Newton's 2nd and 3rd laws. There are about 20 questions.

This slide show is set up as a virtual worksheet to allow students to move around chromatids to model how they move through the phases of mitosis and meiosis. There is also a slide that has them drag pictures of stages of meiosis into their correct spot on the cell cycle, so they can see all of the phases right next to each other. This is a good activity to check their understanding, after the class where they are taught about meiosis - they also need to know what mitosis is.

This is a summative assessment. It contains all multiple choice or matching questions. This test requires students to apply their knowledge using charts, diagrams, images, analogies, and/or scenarios. It requires way more than the regurgitation of information without being overwhelming!!

This worksheet goes along with a thinglink I made. There are 7 questions, some with multiple parts. The thinglink has links to websites, pictures, & videos that help the students understand centrifugal and centripetal forces. The worksheet can be printed and filled in or used in a virtual format, where the students type right on it. Here is the link to the thinglink: https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1403102379330502657 I also have a mini quiz available for free with the same title to assess th

This slide show introduces each of the main forces and includes sample free body diagrams for the students to work through (with questions to ask the class, and then click to add answer to the slide). There is a free note sheet available to go with this.

This slide show reviews what vectors are and has the students use a "ruler" and drag and drop arrows into their correct spot as a resultant. There are 6 problems for the students to do as well as a couple multiple choice questions having them analyze resultants in a real-life scenario. I also have a free mini quiz that assesses student on this - it is called Vectors & Resultants Mini Qiuz. This is perfect for a virtual classroom!

This google slides goes over the basics of chemical formulas and conservation of matter. It will be very useful as an introduction in chemistry class or as part of the chemistry of life unit in biology. This slide show includes examples of molecules so students can practice counting atoms. It does not go into the balancing of equations - it is the stepping stone to get there. There is also a note sheet to go along with this, which is a google doc - so great for virtual learning!

This worksheet goes along with a thinglink I made. There are 6 questions, some with multiple parts. The thinglink has links to websites, pictures, & videos that help the students understand momentum. The worksheet can be printed and filled in or used in a virtual format, where the students type right on it. Here is the link to the thinglink: https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1371210786843656195 I also have a mini quiz available for free with the same title to assess the students understanding

This slideshow is set up as a virtual worksheet that not only directs students through a phet circuit simulation, but also gives them a spot to type the answers. There is a video to introduce the 2 types of circuits, a slide that requires them to define the circuits, and a slide with a drag and drop activity to sort pictures of series and parallel circuits. There are 4 circuits for the students to build.

This slideshow is set up as a drag and drop activity. The students click on the text in the yellow boxes and drag them to their correct spot in the venn diagram. It is great for virtual or in-person classes. The first slide is a warm-up/bell ringer question to get them thinking about the waves. I used this activity as a review, but you could have them do a reading about the types of waves and use it as a formative assessment/reading guide (and share their answers in discussion format after they

This slideshow is set up as a virtual worksheet, that not only directs students through a torque simulation, but also gives them a spot to type the answers. There are 9 problems for the students to work through. There are some that require them to drag and drop weights onto the teeter totter and others with text boxes to fill in answers. There is also a slide with a claim, evidence, and reasoning for them to fill in regarding torque and the equation for it.

This slide show leads students through a pHet simulation. It has data tables for them to fill in, spots for them to fill in short answers, drag and drop fill in the blank slides, and screen shots of the pHet simulation throughout to guide them through. This is perfect for a virtual classroom! I also have a free mini quiz available (by the same title) to assess their understanding of the lab once they have finished!

This worksheet goes along with a thinglink I made. There are 26 questions. The thinglink has links to websites, pictures, & videos that help the students understand the doppler effect.
