This is a set of 24 question cards, some open-ended and some multiple choice, on the topic of atoms, molecules, and compounds. Questions asked include such information as: --subatomic particles and their charges --common compounds (water, salt, sugar) and the elements that create them --deciding if something is an element or a compound --what particles are in the nucleus & the atomic number The cards can be used in centers or in a carousel or scoot game. Cards can also be laminated, hole-punch

These are interactive notebook pages for compound sentences. One set of pages shows the coordinating conjunctions used in compounds sentences and their uses. The other set of pages shows the correct layout of compound sentences used with the conjunctions and a comma. Both give examples and also allow students to practice writing their own examples.
