The articles cover the exact same content, but are written at approximately 6th and 8th grade reading levels. You might want to use the easier version - Magnets-How They Work for some students and the 8th grade version - Exploring Magnetism with other students. Since the information covered is the same it gives you flexibility to meet your students’ needs. You can choose to have the students do the assignment all on paper, all digitally or the way I prefer is a combination. I print the paperwork

This lesson helps students to understand how Earth’s magnetic field “works”. It moves the students from a simple visualization of magnetic field lines using simple magnets and iron filing (video is linked if you don’t want to do it live) to understanding how and why the Aurora Borealis are created. Allow students to illustrate with crayons/colored pencils the Northern Lights for increased participation. Let the videos be the instructor for the day. Great for when you need a low stress lesson,

No prep, great for a sub day, can be used together or individually. Worksheets have the videos linked directly on the paperwork.  You can use all three papers or mix-match as you like.

Have students use this digital assessment to show that they understand how real life occurrences are explainable through Newton’s Laws of Motion. The document has 14 gifs for students to choose from or they can even add a gif of their choice, to identify how two different Laws of Motion are illustrated. It also requires students to identify how energy is transferred from one object to another.There is not a single correct response for any of the Gifs, so students are able to explain the Gif thro

This uses several short engaging videos to introduce Newton's 3 Laws of Motion. Students will be able to distinguish how the laws are used to explain real life occurrences. If you've got time and a Jenga set it's a great idea to set it up to hook your class in to the lesson. Continue with the hands-on by utilizing a balloon later on.
