Simplify Teaching for Learning

Have your students use tools on the tool bar to illustrate diagrams including rotation, revolution, day/night, and shadows. This is a great activity for Substitute plans, review, demonstrating understanding, or even homework.

Incorporating writing in your Science classroom is so very important! Have your students think and write as if they are planning to conduct scientific investigations. I am creating writing activities that you can use as a "when you are finished" activity, substitute activity, or science practices review activity.

A tool to get students talking about important information that can help make it a great year!

Great tool for documenting, tracking, and teaching proper laboratory behavior.

This has been the easiest way for me to keep up with being sure all students receive the work they had missed when absent. Under the sign I have a file folder labeled for each class period. In the folder I place the work with the student's name on it after I have handed the work out to the class.

Welcome your students back to school with a fun ice breaker activity. You will receive a set of 6 questions to go with the 6 numbers on the dice patterns also provided. You will also get a documentation sheet students can fill out while they play and learn new things about their classmates!

If the diagram was printed poster size I think it could be used in any regular classroom as a whole group discussion activity.

Incorporating writing in your Science classroom is so very important! I am creating writing activities that you can adapt to Claim-Evidence-Reasoning writing or RACE writing for your students.
