These journaling prompts, inspired by a number of different resources, enable students to chart their own course as they move forward with their lives. By thinking and journaling, they can put their lives into perspective and figure out where they want to go.

Teaching about renewable energy? Want to diagram out how different sources are being used to run the grid? Want to compare growth in the renewable sector over time or consider models used in other countries? Check out this resource that makes a whole bunch of numbers very easy for visual learners to follow. With a slideshow, a question bank, and links to further resources, this folder is well worth the insight it will give your students.

This document has over 45 questions in an open ended format for an Environmental Science Final Exam in a logical sequence that you can pull from.

With this study guide, you can keep the end in mind for your classroom, and generate your own final exam that suits your needs and the material that you covered over the course of your class.

The Next Generation Science Standards come alive with three dimensional learning, and this format keeps those dimensions at the forefront of planning. This lesson plan spreadsheet allows for streamlined selection of NGSS Standards for each lesson as teachers plan weeks, units, and eventually the entire year. With drop down menus for DCIs, CCCs, and SEPs, date upon a double click for relevant cells, and an easy to use google drive compatibility, teachers can plan ahead, keep track of progress, an

In need of a way to warm up a class? Looking for icebreakers that don't suck? Trying to gauge science skills like measurements and conversions? This Presentation will shake out the class and let everyone warm up.

Content warning: preview video by Derek Muller at Veritasium to determine if the language is appropriate for your setting. He does get hit by pennies, and some strong language may be considered offensive by some. Utilizing the true value of Mythbusters, Veritasium, and classic questions about falling objects, this question set allows the 22 minute long video to be peppered with gathering data, forming hypotheses, making predictions, utilizing equations, comparing units (calculations are m/s, v

Have your students use real world data, integrating math, computer skills, and demographics to illustrate our changing and diverse world. Students select one of the 9 countries, and calculate the percent each age cohort and sex contributes to the total population. If they use good spreadsheet skills, they will be able to do the math portion in a very short frame of time.

This quick activity has some game and puzzle resources to support an understanding of what light is and how it works in different mediums. You can access the simulation here: Light Simulation. The questions are of my own design, and can be done in a short time frame.

With division, fractions, and factors, this visual guide shows students that there's more than one correct path towards a multiplication answer. This spreadsheet will fill the appropriate cells with green conditional formatting if there is a number that matches what you (or a student) types into the "question number" cell. The first tab covers numbers 1-12, the second 1-20, and the third has the perfect squares highlighted at all times.

This list of resources and breakdown of causes and effects allows students to synthesize multiple sources and see how environmental and anthropogenic factors both contribute to large scale problems, and how both need to be taken into account for solutions.

This slideshow has visuals to prompt the interest of students in the various laws and events that impacted environmental protection across America's history.

A simple introduction to kinematic equations using the classic video game Lunar Lander, students will be able to identify the frame of reference, compute acceleration, and calculate one dimensional displacement through guided problem solving.
