Use this fully editable webquest to provide a background behind the energy transfer between nuclear energy and how it is converted to electricity. Bonus includes a four-square phenomena covering Cherenkov Radiation; a unique form of radiation only emitted during the start-up of a nuclear reactor.

Ever wonder how to introduce or reinforce the concept of Universal Gravitation with your introductory physics students? I did, and couldn't find anything that was deeper than reading text, so I made this webquest that involves researching weight on different planets/moon, mass v. weight, universal gravitation basics, and universal gravitation calculations .

Use this classic lab with your students to provide a model and example of Newton's Laws of Motion. The lab requires construction and testing/modification to collect a set of data that includes velocity and momentum as well as graphically interpreting the results. Fully editable, the lab requires materials that you can collect from your site or home (cardboard, rubber bands, etc.) with other minimal set-up. Can be completed as a group, individually, or as a part of a competition!

Use this webquest to help students gain a stronger understanding of the basics about Motion. Sections include: Motion BasicsSir Isaac NewtonMotion Coaster

Use this 'four-square' phenomena worksheet to provide students with uncommon examples of how electromagnetic radiation impacts our universe. Phenomenon examples include: 'Arrow changes direction', 'disappearing beaker', and 'plasma grapes'. Includes worksheet, level 2 questions template, example.

The Compounds and Chemical Bonding Performance Task includes three differentiated levels to allow students to demonstrate understanding of compounds, chemical bonds, and chemical reactions. Focused mainly on Ionic and Covalent bonding, the editable file is easily modified to incorporate other concepts at different grade levels such as metallic bonding, exo/endothermic reactions, combustion reactions, etc. This is a rubric with three different modifications making it more accessible to a broad ra

Use this critical thinking activity to introduce or reinforce the different wavelength categories in the electromagnetic spectrum. When used with an external tool like 'padlet', students can perform a virtual gallery walk where they collect the remaining information on the other wavelength categories. Students are assigned a wavelength to research and provide information on. Then, they upload their information to an external tool where students can view information to complete the remainder o

Use this natural phenomena to enhance your students' curiosity about the Newton's Law of Motion, Gravity, and all other forces acting on an egg as it drops to the ground. Fully editable, this activity can be completed as a class, in groups, or individually and includes a short explanation of the phenomena.

Use this lab as a way for your students to identify spectra emitted by gasses and to determine the wavelength at which particular elements emit light. Great way to reinforce skills and 'see' the visible light spectrum while studying the electromagnetic spectrum. This lab can be completed physically or virtually. Physical lab requires spectrum tubes, a spectrum tube power supply, and a class set of spectroscopes; Virtual lab uses links to provided examples of elemental spectra which are used to i

Use this natural phenomena to enhance your students' curiosity about the Newton's Law of Motion. Fully editable, this activity can be completed as a class, in groups, or individually and includes a short explanation of the phenomena.

Use this natural phenomena to enhance your students' curiosity about the electromagnetic spectrum/electromagnetic radiation. Fully editable, this activity can be completed as a class, in groups, or individually and includes a short explanation of the phenomena.

Use these notes to help students reinforce basics about forces in our universe. Includes: Digital Cornell Notes template linked with text section for the "Forces of Nature". Section for Vocabulary. How To: Cornell NotesFully editable.

Use this webquest to discover new concepts or as practice for the concept of Universal Gravitation. There are three sections covering: Weight on other worldsThe law of Universal GravitationMathematics of Universal Gravitation
