Product includes: - Powerpoint with notes on each type of energy/ activity instructions - Student worksheet where students can take notes and record scavenger hunt activity where they classify/explain examples of energy transformations (2 versions available) - Card sort (students classify/discuss if each type of energy is kinetic or potential) ***editable google doc***

- Includes an introductory lesson and virtual activity for students to begin exploring chemical formulas in a visual and manipulative way. They start to form their own predictions of what the coefficients and subscripts represent before the teacher explicitly teaches it. - Follow up lesson slides and worksheet (p2) is used for additional student practice

Students learn about different plate boundaries+ key features formed at each boundary without direct instruction - Can be used as rotating stations activity - Can also be used as group activity where each group is assigned a station and creates a poster. Students fill out the information during gallery walk.

This MLL friendly activity is used as a review for basic chemistry. It can be a funreview game where students complete one level at a time. Answers must be checked before they could receive level 2. Alternatively, it can be used as a h.w or sub plan (NO PREP!!!)

MLL friendly resource with visuals and spanish translations!! It includes a printable card sort, review sheet with examples to classify + MCAS sample questions related to reproduction. Students can use the cards to sort and discuss the differences between asexual and sexual reproduction! They can then use the review sheet to apply what they have learned and practice past MCAS questions

In the project, students start by using given parents' genes to predict the offsprings traits. They complete punnett squares + calculate the percent chance of inheriting each trait. Students will then flip a coin to determine what alleles their baby will inherit from each parent. They can then sketch and name their baby. (You can randomly assigned parent genes or have kids assign genes to each other. This activity can also be used as an alternative worksheet to the celebrity punnett square proj

Students practice graphing and interpreting the relationship between KE vs Mass and KE vs Speed.

Students practice reading a periodic table using this activity. Products includes: - a printable level up activity where students answer questions one level at a time. You may have kids line up in a designated area to get their answers checked off before moving onto level 2 etc. (students receive immediate feedback while engaged in a competitive and physically active game) - PPT reviewing how to read a periodic table + instructions for the activity

The lab can be used as a introductory activity for potential and kinetic energy. The goal is for students to discover how potential energy is affected by height and mass. Made accessible for MLLS and students with disabilities Leave Review!

Students explore the effects that removing one organism have on an entire ecosystem through the Yellowstone Case Study. Scaffolded versions with guiding questions/visuals are available for ELLs and students with special needs V.1 - Students create a food web using predator/prey data then answer guided questions about the impacts of removing wolves V.2 - Students use a pre-created food web to write a CER about the effects of removing wolves

Google slides presentation - Defines mutations - Focuses on the concept that a change in genes may affect proteins that then result in harmful, beneficial, or neutral effects Students practice classifying examples of mutations as helpful, neutral and harmful mutations.

Review activity for genotype/phenotype . Students create their own alien based on the alleles that they randomly inherit. One version includes practice for naming gene pairs as homozygous or heterozygous. Leave feedback and reviews!!!!

Fun and simple first week of school activity. It introduces students to: - Writing notices/wonders - Creating initial models -Forming hypothesis - Experimenting -Writing CER using evidence from observations - Different versions available scaffolded for MLLs (emerging to bridging levels)

Students apply their knowledge about heat transfer, particle motion and phase changes in a fun ice cream lab that they can later enjoy! Post lab questions require students to create a model explaining the lab - how particles change before and after the phase change - how heat is transferred (conduction/convection/radiation) 2 versions available - one for students who need extra language supports

Great to use as an introductory activity. Instead of copying and memorizing defintions, students see examples of each category first. They develop their own definitions of element, compound and mixture based on patterns that they notice.

- Online and paper copy available - Worksheet with sample MCAS questions: one version with just questions and one that requires students to explain answers to a few of the questions. This can be used as a quiz, MCAS review or sub plan.

Students will be analyzing graphical and textual evidence to learn about a case study where humans impacted the natural selection process (modified from another resource) This can be used as a sub plan or extension activity after students have learned about natural selection. The resource is highly scaffolded to help students interpret the information from the text and graph. Two versions are available - one with more language supports for MLL students.

Includes two different worksheets on symbiotic relationships. Students read a short description, classify then explain the relationship between the organisms. Foundational version includes pictures, spanish translation and requires students to fill in the blank. Second version includes pictures and sentence starters for students to explain each example. Third version is un scaffolded.

Students review food chains and organism roles (producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, tertiary consumer etc.)

Simple activity using index card, cup, and coin to explore Newton's first law + idea of balanced vs unbalanced forces. Students draw force arrows + use the phenomena to explain the idea that objects at rest will stay at rest and objects in motion will stay in motion unless acted by an outside force. Activity Sheet + optional slides available.
