This activity requires students to work in teams and sort examples of physical and chemical changes. I have included a student answer sheet which will require students to back up their answers with evidence. At the end of the activity, students will write a CER (claim, evidence, reasoning) argument that answers the original question: "What is the difference between a physical change and a chemical change?" How is this product useful? ✔ Common Core Lesson on Arguing from Evidence ✔ Requires Colla

Students will create a Frayer model foldable which will help them understand six genetic vocabulary terms: heredity, gene, trait, allele, dominant, and recessive. The foldable will require students to define the target vocabulary word, draw a picture, and apply the information by generating examples and non-examples for each vocabulary term. The foldable is designed to fit on a standard 8.5 x 11 paper and requires printing two pages (double-sided). This resource makes a great interactive noteboo

This activity requires students to work in teams to examine pictures to determine whether each card shows something that has mass and volume. From there, students will sort the pictures into two categories: made of matter or not made of matter. I have included a student answer sheet which will require students to answer several critical thinking questions including one that will have them write their own definition for matter. This card sort is a great introduction to matter activity. Instead of
