Habitat Design Project
My 7th graders love creating new hands-on models! I've taken the traditional diorama assignment to a bit more advanced level so ensure my kiddos are genuinely learning the ecology concepts. I've designed this to be the final part of our "Design an Endangered Species Zoo", though it can be completed entirely on it's own. This project is designed to be an end-of-unit assessment that requires students to compile content and skills learned throughout the ecology lessons. Without expecting students

Introduction: Investigate the Teacher!
This activity was designed to save you time and bring joy to the beginning of your year!! Each year, I encourage my kiddos to move around on the first day, talk to peers, and check out the classroom. This activity requires them to do so without moving anything in the room. They use observational and analysis skills to determine "who" their new teacher is. Students love the chance to explore the new room and chat with peers while you benefit from them learning the layout of the your space!

Body Tissues Microscope Lab
While learning about the human body systems my students always spend a class period investigating a variety of body tissue slides under the microscopes. They love any chance to use the microscopes and this provides a bit of "free exploration" while guiding them to connect their findings to the 7th grade standards! The open response questions means very little lab prep for the teacher- one set of copies as a reference and any slides from body tissues!

As Ms. Frizzle says: Take Chances, Make Mistakes, Get Messy!
She really is my hero and I strive to give my kids as many authentic, hands-on science experiences as possible. I want them to fall in love with the scientific process and constantly ask "but why? how? what happens next? what if?". The more they talk to each other, engage in debate, and offer new information they've found on their own, the better class it is!!
