Making High School Relatable

These problems are very straight forward Normal Distribution problems using the Empirical Rule 68-95-99.7 My students enjoyed these. All pages are editable so make it your own, switch out colors and or scenarios.

There are four stations with minimal set-up or equipment to test basic biomechanical principles. Equipment needed, yoga mat, 2-dumbbells (5-10lbs) and 2- 5lb medicine balls. Answer not provided due to the variance in students' performance data. Biomechanical PrinciplesThe contribution of rotation to the linear velocity of an object is dependent on the rate of rotation and the distance of the object from the axis.To transfer momentum, velocity is equal in importance to the force.To produce a la

To assist those students struggling to differentiate carbohydrates and lipids. There are 8 scenarios. Students must read the scenario then determine which type of energy that individual would want --Short Term or Long Term. Then fill in the blank for which type of macromolecule they would want to consume --Carbs or Lipids. Generated for Matter & Energy level students.

Define Photosynthesis Contrast between heterotrophs and autotrophs. Apart from food plants make, what chemical elements do they need to surviveDepict a plant like on the website and label the reactants and products plants use and make during the process. Describe what a plant uses glucose for? Distinguish between the two types of chemical reactions needed for plants to convert solar energy into chemical energy. Identify the role of a wide surface area, veins and pores. Be sure to include st

Includes evolutionary evidences (natural selection, embryological development, biochemistry, amino acids, fossils, homologous & analogous structures) and gel electrophoresis). As well as cladogram, survival of the fittest, Charles Darwin and a few other filler but related terms. Constructed this for 9th grade environmental science. Only two class periods are spend on evolutionary evidence it is a introduction for the students for when they take Biology the following year.

Practice constructing venn diagrams using probability. In addition to distinguishing between non-replacement and replacement probability. This was created for 12th grade Statistical Analysis.

Keep things relatable to students. Also be creative, while cellphones should be put away, to limit distractions for students, you can use social media templates to fill the void of cell phone usage. This template I use for "Do Nows" or drills. Each phone represents a day/a single drill. You can add lines in them for students to write on. My thought process behind this template, is snapchat is quick like "ahh ha" moments you want to capture or share. Hence, a drill you are either revisiting a top

Relate to students interest in social media. Use twitter template exit tickets. The way I describe it to my students, with twitter you have 140 characters to use which is plenty to summarize what you want to share out with your followers; thus, at the end of class we will tweet out a summary of what we learned (in form of multiple choice, t or f, complete sentences, vocabulary definitions, etc) to determine if we met our objective for the day.

All the main terms, processes, organelles and some functions to review the Cells Unit
