Two pages of questions (18 questions in all) that pertain directly to the information presented in the hyperlinked website (all links are current and active). This webquest explores early astronomy, our galaxy, stars, distant galaxies, and the size of the universe. This activity can be chunked, or given as a long-term assignment.

All the basic resources necessary to teach principles of forces and motion, Newton's laws, acceleration, momentum, friction, waves, and a fun aeronautics/aerodynamics presentation and lab activity. Materials include Power Point presentations, reading comprehension, vocabulary, and a pre-test review activity.

How do big, heavy airplanes get off the ground and fly? This Power point gives an easy to understand explanation. Bonus segments on the end tell about the world's fastest plane, and explains the best material for making paper airplanes. The perfect lead in to my Paper Airplane Challenge activity.

The principles of basic aeronautics explained, combined with a fun and engaging lab activity in which students apply their understanding of aerodynamics by making and testing different paper airplane designs.

This webquest takes students to 4 different websites where they will learn what sustainability is, the importance and sources of freshwater, and how solar panels work. Students then use their newly acquired skills in the fifth website where they play an online education game centered around recycling.

This bundle includes 3 power points (How Rocks are Classified, Igneous Rocks, and Sedimentary Rocks), the Metamorphic Rocks Webquest, as well as bonus guided notes for the Sedimentary Rocks and How Rocks are Classified power points. This bundle is the rock solid ;) foundation for your unit. A huge savings over the individual power points and Webquest that do not include guided notes.

A departure from the usual power point, this webquest uses several (all current and active) links for students to discover for themselves the characteristics, origins, and locations of metamorphic rocks. It concludes with a link that students use to complete a diagram of the entire (igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic) rock cycle.

Fifteen different Power points together in one file . The first fourteen profile different American Black STEM pioneers, their lives and accomplishments. Each of the first 14 presentations have video links embedded in them. The final presentation tells the story of how Albert Einstein refused his many invitations to guest lecture at different colleges and universities in favor of Lincoln University, the nations first HBCU. I start every class in the month of February introducing my students t

The complete package of power point, worksheet packet, and fun activity bundled at a value price.

A comprehensive activity packet that gives detailed explanations of the phases of the moon and has multiple reinforcement activities. The packet includes moon facts, as well as an essay all about the supposed power the moon has over certain events.

A PowerPoint presentation that describes the nature and basic properties of waves; wavelength, frequency, amplitude, wave time, period, speed, resonance, forced vibrations, and natural frequency, with examples. The end of the presentation is a quiz on determining the number of wavelengths of various wave graphics.

Students navigate the NASA K-4 web pages to learn all about the controversial, much maligned dwarf planet Pluto. Two pages, 15 questions total.

Give your students handout sheets that have the words "Fact" or "Fiction" on them in large letters and use this fun and informative slide show to test their knowledge of moon trivia! A fun activity to enhance your astronomy unit or just liven up a Friday.

A comprehensive 35-slide Powerpoint of the structures of the skin, including, pigment, skin appendages, and various homeostatic imbalances.

A 27 slide power point that explains friction and the four different types of friction. The end of the power point quizzes students on their newly acquired knowledge.

A comprehensive Powerpoint that includes the skull (adult and fetal), sinuses, the hyoid bone, vertebral column, vertebrae, and the bony thorax.

Part of a larger unit on climate this presentation teaches students about hemispheres, the equator, prime meridian, and of course longitude and latitude with the end goal being the student's ability to use longitude and latitude coordinates to find locations on a map. This presentation can also be used to explain the climate of different biomes.

A combination of two power points. The first is all about human blood, blood types, rh proteins, and donor compatibility. The second power point is an in-depth explanation of the genetic condition of sickle cell anemia, it's cause, effects, diagnosis, and treatments.

This 16 slide power point explains the meaning and origin of the term Living Fossil. It gives numerous examples from various taxa and tells how living fossils are evidence for evolution. Last slide contains an imbedded video.

The perfect intro to your unit on rocks and rock types. It explains how the 3 rock types are classified, and gives numerous photographic examples. You can even use rocks from the classroom collection for students to look at during the presentation.
