Dichotomous Keys - What's That Jelly Belly?

Created by

Lessons with Laur

Using dichotomous keys to classify and identify organisms can be tricky for many students, but I find it works great with this Jelly Belly Classification activity. Plus, students get to eat jelly beans while they learn, so it is a win-win for all! This resource does NOT include the actual Jelly Belly dichotomous key (I did not create one - I just used one I found for free online!), but included the associated materials for the activity.

Ice Breaker - Find A Friend BINGO!

Created by

Lessons with Laur

Find-A-Friend BINGO is a quick, easy, and fun ice breaker activity for the first week back to school. I love ice breaker activities, but I know for many students they can be nerve-wracking if they require speaking in front of the class or sharing about themselves (which most ice-breakers do!). I love this specific ice breaker because it doesn't involve any embarrassment or public speaking, and is suitable for both the shy and outgoing students. Teachers are also encouraged to join in on the game
